Struggles with Editing Cells: Lack of Undo Functionality

Editing cells it's a nightmare, if I do something stupid, there's no way to undo it (command Z does not work)

Hey Filippo, thanks for the feedback and sharing. We apologize for the frustrating experience and would like to find ways to help out. Is there a reason or situation that requires you to make manual changes to cells instead of using automated options like formulas or AI? Quick example -https://www.loom.com/share/c81034190c954983b4d303110bd92339 The reason I ask is mainly because the way that data is stored when we receive it from data providers has a particular way to process it and make it readable in tables. It uses API calls which if we attempt to 'undo' would likely affect it or re-run them due to their nature. However, understanding your specific use case could help us scope out options that aren't related to this, thanks!

Gotcha! 😊 The best approach would be to create a text column, add the text you want to replace, and then use a merge column with the text column first and the previous enrichment output second. This method is the most efficient because our columns are handled by a header, which adds dynamic content. If you try to write directly on top, it won’t be processed properly. However, by following this process, you should be all set! Let me know if you need more clarification! 😊
