Documents now offers a Compact List view
Documents now offers a Compact List view. If it has been there before I haven't noticed it.
Nothing more than you’ve observed Matt. I’m amazed, though, how much I’m still stumbling across in addition to all the formal comms we get!
It's great that it has a compact view. Too bad this isn't the default. I can ask for it to compact view and I want this to be the norm for my entire site but as soon as I close it out and come back in it is all uncompacted again. Any idea of how I can make the page and if possible the entire site "compacted"
Thx
CanadaOneStopShop John Wynne Did anyone ever figure out how to make the Compact List View the default view?
AEC_Mike I still don't think there's an option for it yet, in the UI anyway. There's a user voice asking for compact be to be able to be set as default for a view here: https://sharepoint.uservoice.com/forums/329214-sites-and-collaboration/suggestions/38057041-default-modern-lists-library-views-to-compact-l
- Somebody at Microsoft actually "heard" the user voice for this! I used the "Save As" method and it worked! Just be sure to save the view with the name of the view you're trying to replace. In my case, I applied the Compact View and used "All Documents" as the name of the view to save it as.
