🚀 NocoDB Feature Release : QR Code, Keyboard Shortcuts and … 🚀

🥬 What’s new .. What’s fresh ?

:clapper: QR Code

We are excited to announce a new column type : QR Code! This generates QR Code for any row. QR Code generations works similar Forumula and currently supports these columns :

• SingleLine Text
• Long Text
• Phone Number
• Email
• URL
• Formula

Support for more columns will come soon.

And the more exciting bit of this feature is it is done by our community contributor Daniel (@spaudanjo) - Daniel is software engineer by profession and is passionate about building tech where there is humanitarian crisis. And he has dedicated time aside & raised grants to work on Noco.

:keyboard: Keyboard Shortcuts

With combinations of keys, you can trigger some actions without moving your mouse.

:cool: Copy and Paste

With Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V, we can copy the data from one cell to another, even to another tables. For LTAR columns, only BelongTo is supported.

:zap: Advanced Options in Column Menu

Advanced options has been added to the column menu. Now we can sort the column in an ascending order or descending order, hide the column, duplicate it or even insert the column after / before the chosen one. Also we show the count in badge for Fields, Filter and Sort.

🕐 Now, its demo time

:clapper: QR Code

In this version, we introduced a new column type - QR Code.

QR Code is a virtual column which supports different column types for the referenced value to be encoded. The generated QR code is dynamic, which means whenever the referenced column is changed, the QR code will be updated as well.

:keyboard: Keyboard Shortcuts

By pressing ctrl + /, you can see the available shortcut keys. Or you can check it out in Help Center.

If you are a Mac user, ctrl is cmd key.

:cool: Copy and Paste

Now you can copy a single cell and paste it to another cell. To copy the data, select the target cell and press ctrl + c , then press ctrl + v on the target cell. It could be another table and the existing cell data will be replaced.
