Display attachment for reference column

Good morning :smiley:,
Is there a reason why we cannot list in the “COLUMN TYPE” : Reference
a field that is an attachment, I would like to be able to choose from the “logo” field instead of the title .

Thanks

Maybe that can be allowed. I think the limitation today is that a Reference column can only display plain text (not even colors). But there is a workaround, at least for viewing.

You can add a formula column with the formula $shop.logo, and set its type to Attachment. That should allow you to see the logo of the linked record.

As in Sao’s question, I had a logo in a table which was referenced in another table and wanted to display the logo through the reference. I was able to do this with:

Column behaviour: formula $Group.Logo[0], Column type: Attachment
Note that one needs to add [0] to dmitry’s answer.

The $Group column is a reference to another table which has a type=attachment $Logo column.
