About This Feature

Overview

The Multidimensional Multiple Choice Field is one of the basic field types in WPS Tables. It lets you select multiple preset options in the same cell, which is useful for product tags, skill tags, request types, and other scenarios that need more than one category label.

Core capabilities include:

Create a multiple choice field from the table header.
Add and edit options in field settings.
Bulk edit options by pasting one option per line.
Allow new options to be added while filling in records.

This feature works well for teams that need consistent tag management, less repeated input, and clearer classification in table-based collaboration.
