About This Feature
Overview
Gallery View New/Delete Records helps you manage data in a card-based view inside WPS multi-dimensional tables. You can use + Add Record to create a new card, or remove an unwanted record from a card's right-click menu.
This feature supports these main tasks:
- Create a record by filling in fields in the right-side detail panel.
- Delete a record directly from a gallery card.
- Keep adding records continuously with Submit and continue adding.
It works well for product catalogs, asset libraries, project cards, and other visual record-management workflows.

Compare with Alternatives

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | In Gallery View for multi-dimensional tables, WPS lets you create a card with + Add Record and delete a record from the card's right-click menu. | Microsoft Lists lets users add items with + New and delete selected list items. | Google Sheets lets users insert and delete rows, columns, or cells, but the workflow is grid-based rather than gallery-card based. | Notion databases let users add cards in gallery view with + New. Each item is a page, and items can also be deleted. | Adobe Acrobat mainly supports adding or deleting PDF form fields in form-editing workflows, rather than managing database-style record cards. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS keeps record creation and deletion inside a visual gallery card view. Distinct: the detail panel supports field entry and continuous record creation in one flow. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft focuses on list-item management, so the gallery-style card workflow is not the main interaction pattern. | Compared with WPS: Google Sheets focuses on spreadsheet row and cell operations instead of gallery-card record management. | Compared with WPS: Notion also supports gallery cards, but each record is a page, so the editing model differs from structured table-card maintenance. | Compared with WPS: Adobe Acrobat focuses on PDF form fields and does not provide the same type of gallery-based table record management. |

Overall Conclusion
If you need to create and remove records in a visual card layout, WPS Gallery View is closer to that workflow than spreadsheet-grid or PDF-form tools. Other products offer related capabilities, but their interaction models are different from gallery-based record maintenance.
Use Cases
| No. | Scenario | Suitable users | Main challenge | How this feature helps |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| 2 | Asset card cleanup | Content teams, design teams | Outdated or incorrect cards reduce browsing efficiency | Delete invalid records from the card menu |

| 4 | Shared data maintenance | Team collaborators | Shared card collections can accumulate redundant records | Remove unnecessary records directly in Gallery View |
