Grid, Board & Gallery — Search, group, and shape the columns (3)

Nest rows instead of grouping them when a table links to itself — a Parent, a Reports to, a Part of. If the table has a link to its own records that holds one record, the Group menu offers Or nest rows: each record then sits under its parent, as deep as the links go (up to 20 levels), and Stop nesting puts the flat list back. A view nests or groups, not both, so choosing one turns the other off. Columns chooses which fields this view shows and in what order, plus how tall a row is. There are four heights: Compact and Comfortable fit a cell on one line, while Tall shows two lines of a long value and Extra tall shows four, wrapping instead of cutting off. Wrapping comes with the height rather than as a separate switch, because at one line there is nowhere to wrap to. Taller rows also show more of a link field's chips before they collapse into a count. These save to the view itself, so a shared view changes for everyone — which is why on a shared view they're an admin call. Anyone else gets offered a personal view instead: your own columns, filters, sorting and grouping on the same table, visible only to you.
