When using Inline Forms, is there a way to adjust the UX?

The system-generated

_Form view uses the table itself, so the field order is tied to the table itself.

I tried making a Slice from that table & then a โ€œ

_Form 2โ€ (canโ€™t use the same name to override), but thereโ€™s no way to tie clicking the row (to edit) to using that other view.

Is there another option, or do I have to reorder the spreadsheet itself?

@Eloi_George I posted this question just a few hours earlier

@Eloi_George & @Jerry_Lan, I wrestled with this very issue myself for quite awhile before settling on my current approach: I always layer a slice atop my table, write all of my formulas to reference the slice instead of the table, and attach all views to the slice instead of the table. Because I already had extensive formulas that referenced the table name, and didnโ€™t want to rewrite them all, I renamed the table and gave the new slice the tableโ€™s original name.

Huh.

So, instead of creating a Virtual Ref Column to Table2, We create one (or change the App formula) that points to Slice2?

It works! Thereโ€™ll probably be an extra layer of SELECTs going on in the background, but at least this gets it done!

Thanks!
