J Doe (ID: 000000d3ab169cd9) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/19/2020 Does nothing. Nothing changes when I tick the boxes, untick them, refresh the page, sign out of SF, sign in. It's another placebo app folks.

Oscar Kimani (ID: 000000498056e68c) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/19/2018 Love it!

Victor H (ID: 00000091980354da) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/02/2018 Great app to reduce some of the pain of lightning's excessively long layouts. I agree with Chris' idea of decreasing the width between the label and data cells. Changing the label container width from 50% to 25% would be great, or add the ability for users to specify the width. Cheers!

Chris High (ID: 0000007a32eab805) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/27/2018 Great improvement over Salesforce's stupid stacked implementation. Any way you could decrease the space between the labels and cells when stretched to fit a wide monitor?
