About This Feature

Overview

Add to Quick Access lets you pin frequently used views in a multi-dimensional table to the Quick Access area at the top of the left sidebar, so you can open target views faster. It is useful when one table contains multiple data tables and multiple views, and you want a simpler way to switch between them in WPS on macOS.

Core capabilities include:

  • Add a selected view to Quick Access for faster entry to frequently used views.
  • Remove a view from Quick Access without changing the original view or its data.

This feature fits project collaboration, recurring data review, cross-view switching, and personal workspace organization.

WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: WPS works at the view level inside one multi-dimensional table, so you can create direct shortcuts to specific views without changing their original location.Compared with WPS: favorites are centered on workspaces rather than direct shortcuts to a single page.Compared with WPS: starred items are file- or folder-level entries rather than view-level shortcuts inside one table.Compared with WPS: favorites work for pages, but not for view-level navigation inside a multi-dimensional table.Compared with WPS: quick access is mainly file-based rather than view-based inside one table.

Overall Conclusion
If you often switch between multiple views inside the same multi-dimensional table, WPS provides a closer match for view-level navigation. Other products also offer favorites or starred access, but they are generally organized around workspaces, pages, or files instead of table views.
