How to make not clickable a Column near inline action button

[FaCe]

Is it possible to make the value of a column near an inline action button not clickable (at least in detail view) leaving only action button clickable ?

If understanding of your requirement is clear, I believe that is currently not possible.

Simply create an action with go to another view within this app and use expression LINKTOVIEW(context("view"))

My Action name is an External go to website and have expression:

HYPERLINK(
CONCATENATE(
"https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#search/",
...
This is in line action, near a column TEST.
When pass over TEST (text column) the mouse can click that text, i'd like to avoid it and make clickable only the action button icon.

Hope my request is clearer now ...

It’s unclear, but I assume you have 1 column with 2 inline actions. You want to click on the text in the column to trigger one action, while the second TEST action should not be clickable. Is that correct?

If so, unfortunately, this isn’t possible in AppSheet, as only one action can make the entire text clickable.

Would you like some ideas or workarounds? Let me know your end goal and the purpose of the second action, which seems unnecessary ?

Sorry for the confusion, here's my scenario in detail:

I have an inline action button associated with a column in AppSheet, and I would like to make the column itself non-clickable. Is it possible to prevent the column from being clickable (e.g., not triggering the action or opening the row details) while keeping the inline action button functional?

Any hints ?

You can try this. Also, use an empty icon. When there are two actions, the column will become non-clickable.

For the placeholder action I suggested simply keep display name as empty string like this “ “ and for icon, just double click on any icon to make it empty or look hidden. This will show only your main action and then entire column will be non clickable.

Hi,

done it, but how to remove also the tooltip "no click" that is shown when pass over it the mouse ? In Display name i've inserted "" ...

Use expression like this

[aneville]

Put a <space> between your quotes in the Display Name and it should work

Thanks all,

obviously there's no way to make also the "little hand" when mouse pass over the blank icon, is it correct ? Or is there a workaround to make it invisible as well?

Nice workaround @Rifad
