Since about 1.5 years there have been reported several bugs about Deck View with Nested table column.
I want to summarize them here.
AppSheet Team: Please tell us frankly, if you will fix them, or if we should avoid using Nested table column.

Not working in Dashboard
[New Bug Encountered: Deck view Nested Table not showing when deck view is in a Dashboard](https://community.appsheet.com/t/new-bug-encountered-deck-view-nested-table-not-showing-when-deck-view-is-in-a-dashboard/14337) Questions
When the “Nested table column” option is chosen for a Deck view, and that Deck view is viewed within a Dashboard, the nested table does not show. When the Deck view is viewed outside the Dashboard, the nested table shows, as expected. This behaviour is consistent across mobile and browser views.

I’m not sure if this is a bug or just a limitation of Deck Views. The Nested Table Column for the Deck displays as expected in a standard view, [15%20AM] …but is missing from that same view when it’s part of a Dashboard. [04%20AM]
Not able to set the number of Max. nested rows
[Nested Table Column in Deck View](https://community.appsheet.com/t/nested-table-column-in-deck-view/18145) Questions
I have a deck view with a nested table column. It seems to limit the number of rows shown in the nested table in deck view to 7… is there a setting that allows me to change this number? I’d love to increase it to show an inline table with more rows directly in the deck view.
Table view no consistent column widths
[New Bug Encountered: Deck with Nested table column view not consistent](https://community.appsheet.com/t/new-bug-encountered-deck-with-nested-table-column-view-not-consistent/16066) Questions
Good afternoon, It won’t be a big bug, but when we put the nested table in a deck view, it looks like this: [chrome_2019-11-09_16-17-46] With misaligned values relative to headers. If we click and open the relative view, it looks fine: [chrome_2019-11-09_16-18-31]

Hi Community, I wonder if someone could help, I’ve a deck view with a nested table column but it looks odd. [Capture] Would anyone know if this can be straightened out? Best, Chris.
[Deck View - nested tables do not retain consistent column widths from row to row in the table](https://community.appsheet.com/t/deck-view-nested-tables-do-not-retain-consistent-column-widths-from-row-to-row-in-the-table/10767) Questions
The column widths are not consistent from row to row in a Deck View embedded table creating a very difficult to read table view [25%20AM]
Clicking on a Child row will open the Parent
[New Bug Encountered: Deck with Nested table column](https://community.appsheet.com/t/new-bug-encountered-deck-with-nested-table-column/13044) Questions
In a Deck View with Nested table column I’ve set Row Selected to auto. In the Table Inline View I’ve set Row Selected to Edit. When I click on the Deck, it opens the Detail view. → Pefect. When I click on an item in the Inline Table View, it opens the Parent’s Detail View AND the Child’s Form View. → Should only open the Child’s Form View. [20190806_104426] The column width of the Table Inline View is not consistent. It should look like in the Parent’s Detail View: [Screenshot_1…
Large white space gap between Deck View items
[New Bug Encountered: Deck View - Nested Tables have large gaps and will list beyond view](https://community.appsheet.com/t/new-bug-encountered-deck-view-nested-tables-have-large-gaps-and-will-list-beyond-view/15244) Questions
I like the concept of nested tables in a Deck View. But there are a few issues that keep me from using them related to the Deck View fixed height when the Nested Tables are added. When a table has only a few lines there is a large gap left between one Deck View item and the next - due to a fixed height. This gap should be dynamic up to any size limiting factor meaning it should dynamically reduce the white space gap between Deck View items until it reaches the maximum Deck View item height. …
[Giant white space when using nested table column](https://community.appsheet.com/t/giant-white-space-when-using-nested-table-column/19175) Questions
[image] Does anyone have a solution to the giant white space below rows in a deck view with nested table columns? It would be really nice to be able to display more than 2 lines of text while getting the swipe left and right functionality of the deck view
