I found the fantastic function that allow to create a custom layout for datagrid and datalist. It’s not clear to me if the editor of layouts is active or not. In the thunkable resource page, i can find a “My dataviewer layouts tab” And when i click on action “edit” it it opens a screen editor in which avery action seems to be blocked. Is it only a preview? so If i have to change a detail of my custom layout i have to create a brand new one? Thank you! ---

It works OK with me and I can edit and save changes from the edit option in the **My Data Viewer Layouts**. ---

Which browser? How did you save the layout? ---

I use Chrome on Windows 10. As you know the layout can only be created on the old UI. I add a column to an empty screen then add all necessary components to the column and **save** the column. This is, I think, the typical procedure. I then see it in the tab and click “edit” which takes me, strangely, to a mixed UI between old and new. ---

Exactely the same, but in the “mixed UI” I can’t do nothing. I can select object, but if i try to change dimension or alignment or padding or whatever else, a prohibition symbol appear at the mouse pointer. Do you have a PRO license? ---

Yes, I have a PRO account but I doubt this has anything to do with it. @domhnallohanlon would be able to confirm. ---

I think muneer is probably importing the screen into the new UI (which I confirm does make a weird mixed-UI app, but it seems to work OK), and you’re asking about editing a dataviewer list. Those aren’t the same thing. ---

@catsarisky currently the DnD UI does not have a way to create a custom layout but no. I did it and used it in the legacy UI. However, when I edit it from the “My Data Viewer Layouts” tab I get presented by the mixed UI screen. The bottom line, it works. ---
