Is there a plan with a timeline to fix the newly introduced (maybe with this release) bug affecting group headings? It’s really problematic for users.

[Aurelien]

I’ve been waiting for this fix for so long ! Thanks !!!

[lizlynch]

@Koichiro - Apologies! There were some unforeseen issues that needed to be addressed before we officially announced the new Help Center. Look for the announcement today! Sorry for the delay!

@dbaum and @Aurelien - I will follow up with the Dev team wrt that issue and make sure they are aware of it!

I can still see this alignment bug in detail view

[amyplin]

@Rifad I’ll send you a direct message so I can take a look at your app!

To follow up on this, the bux fix was specifically for the nested table column within Deck views, the screenshot above is concerning an inline table within a Card view, so we’ll look into a different bug fix for the Card layout!

I have finally had some time to take a closer look at the Nested Table feature in a Deck view. The column alignment is great but the extra white space at the bottom of small inline tables is a bit extensive. It seems to be a static height - i.e. non-customizable . It would be best if Deck row Nested Tables set the height based on its own custom setting. Second best would be to use the Detail View Inline row limit. At the very least, the Deck row should automatically reduce the height when there are fewer rows to display.

Secondarily, it seems that the column misalignment persists in a Card view. This is surprising as I would have thought these two view features would have shared the code for Nested Tables. Could we please apply the same column alignment “fix” to the Card view? It has so many more applications than the Deck View.

Example Card View setting a Related items column as the Image yields the view below.
