Spreadsheet / Table View Improvements
Jake Spirek
First off, I'm super happy that this new view is here! I also am very much looking forward to the lookups/rollups, because that will be amazing and very Airtable-like.
That said, I was hoping for just a little bit more spreadsheet-like functionality:
- Make it easier to add more rows on the fly without having to click the Add Task button on the bottom and add things the normal way.
- Make it possible to copy and paste entire cells and even rows. (I know that's asking a lot, but it would be very helpful!)
- Add a "fill handle" in the bottom right of cells, just like in spreadsheets, so you can drag that value down to multiple cells.
In short, make it easier to select and copy cells into other cells. The power of spreadsheets in this context is the ability to quickly modify lots of tasks at once (without having to use the Multitask Toolbar)
I explain it better here in this video:
Thanks!

Yes, I would like if clickup can map things copied from the internet to some compatible custom fields.
For eg: if I copy table from this link: https://help.clickup.com/hc/en-us/articles/6303499162647-Custom-Field-types
It should be robust enough to map things with my task name, task description (or long text fields), example (text field), and options (text field)

Would love the ability to add bulleted/numbered text within the "long text" column option! It's a bit messy right now just lumping it all together.

6 Stars Cleaning: Yes! And also show the same formatting/colors in rollups of dropdowns as in the original task...

This is absolutely abysmal that you cant paste into a simple table FFS

Alex Smith: To be fair, they've only had 2.5 years to work on it (from it's first request) - gotta give them a break man, Copy + Paste is tough! It's one of them "newfangled technological advancements"!

The import process is a pain in the ass. The ability to paste in values like Google Sheets / AirTable would be amazing.

Also, can't remove tasks in table view – I have to go back to list view to do this. Very annoying and time consuming!
Lukas Moser
without a fill handle the table view is beyond useless :)

This has already been stated below, but subtasks in the Table view should appear under the parent task and not at the bottom of the list of tasks. Furthermore, left, right, and centered as well as top, middle, bottom settings should be available for the cells.
