Can a form view have nested rows?

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A

I have tried many ways, but I can’t seem to get AS to allow nested rows in a form view. Is that possible?

2

As in child records within the form for the parent record?

In your example, you have ref column which will show the “Is a part of?” setting. Mine is a virtual list column and does not show that.

Sounds like you’re looking at a column in the parent table. Look at the Ref column in the child table.

Perhaps I have a confusion on this parent-child relationship. I have a table “Meals”, it has only a Key column. I have a “MealLog” table which has a key, but also a “Meal Key” which references the “Meals” table. The Meal table has a one to many relationship, 1 Meal, many MealLog. So, I am thinking that the Meals table is the parent, and MealLog is the child. Am I correct?

By looking at Meals as the child, I was able to get nested rows in its form view. Thanks for that direction, it helped greatly.
