Graphs and charts for SharePoint lists
Make a set of charts and graphs available as App Parts to consume SharePoint list view. Bar, Line, Area, Pie, Donut and Gauges at least.
It seems odd that a platform which is used by so many organisations to record data has to rely on external chart libraries such as Google or third party Apps to provide visualisation of that data. Should be built-in!

Allow using [Open Documents in Client Applications by Default] feature in lists

■Title(件名):
モダン UI のリストに添付したファイルをクライアント アプリケーションで開く機能の追加についてAllow using [Open Documents in Client Applications by Default] feature in lists
■Description(内容):
現在モダン UI のリストにて、添付された Office ファイルをクリックして開くと Office Online で開かれる。
[サイト コレクションの機能] にある [既定でクライアント アプリケーションでドキュメントを開く] という機能は、ライブラリに対して適用される機能であり、リストの添付ファイルには適用されない。
モダン UI のリストでも添付された Office ファイルをクライアント アプリケーションで開く機能や設定を追加してほしい。When clicking Office files attached to a list in the Modern UI, the files will be opened with Office Online, not Office Client.
The feature [Open Documents in Client Applications by Default] in [Site Collection Features] is prepared for libraries, so we are not able to use this feature for lists.
For improvement of usability, make [Open Documents in…40 votes -
Format option to remove the comma from Number columns
We assign clients a customer number and people around the business (and several systems) do not recognise these numbers if they conatin commas.
It is currently impossible to remove the comma in a Sharepoint List Number column.
I've seen users come up with enterprising workarounds using formulae to convert numbers in to text strings but all of these then stop the ability to filter or sort by the standard number methods (eg client 10 is listed before client 2,3,4 etc).
This is staggering really - such a basic formatting option - I can't believe it's not been implemented already -…

Pagination in Modern List View Formatting
Self Explanatory: Pagination in Modern List View Formatting
I have a Modern List in SharePoint Online where I have applied View formatting for displaying items. Now I'm trying to add pagination in the list with view formatting. But I am not sure whether this can be achieved?
I would like to see the Pagination option while using View Formatting in Modern List.

Behavior when files with the same name are stored in a site resource file
■Description(内容):
カスタム リストの複数行テキストにファイルをアップロードした場合、既定でサイトのリソース ファイル内に保存されますが、その際に同名ファイルが存在した場合、自動的にファイルが上書きされる動作となっております。
ファイルによっては、残したいファイルもございますため、ファイルアップロード時に同名のファイルがあった場合、上書きの可否を確認する、またはファイル名の後ろに番号が追記されるような形で重要なファイルの上書き保存を防ぐような機能の実装を希望致します。If a file has been uploaded to a multi-line text in a custom list, by default it is stored in the site resource file. However, if a file with the same name already exists, it will be automatically overwritten.
Since there are files that we want to keep unchanged, in cases where a file is uploaded with the same name as an existing one, please make it so that the user has to give their…34 votes -

Enable freezing the header rows/columns of Lists in SharePoint Online
*English follows Japanese
■Title(件名):
リストの先頭の列名の行を固定し、リスト アイテムのみスクロールしたいEnable freezing the header rows/columns of Lists in SharePoint Online
■Description(内容):
SharePoint Online のリストにて、先頭にある列名の行を固定し、リスト アイテムのみスクロールできるようにしたい。
アイテム数が多いリストを確認する場合、スクロールすることで列名が隠れてしまい、確認しにくい。
列名が固定されることでアイテムを確認しやすくなるため、列名がある先頭の行を固定し、アイテムのみスクロールできる機能の実装を要望します。I would like to freeze column headers at the top of the page so that users can scroll list items only.
It is inconvenient when users scroll through a large amount of item because the column header is not frozen at the top.
In order to make it much easier to view items in a list, please add the option to freeze the header rows/columns of Lists in SharePoint Online.Thank you for your consideration.

Discussion List Threading
The new default look for discussion lists is beautiful, but we need to be able to easily see threaded replies. For example, if I'm replying to an existing reply, the only indication that it's in response to an existing reply is the note "In response to Sally Jenkin's post". It's not visually associated with the reply (not ordered underneath it, much less indented to see a series of replies). Threading would be tremendously beneficial. I've seen several forum posts that take you through changing the view to a standard list view, but that takes away from the clean design.

Export filtered list
I'd like to be able to export a filtered list to Excel. Currently you can filter the list down to the data you want, but when you click "export to Excel" with the data filtered, it still exports the entire list, not the filtered information.

Add approve/reject multiple documents and items in Modern Libraries and Lists
In the new list and document libraries, there are no way to approve multiple documents at once. In the classic view, the button Approve/Reject is available in the ribbon, so you can select multiple items and approve them all.
I suggest to add a button in the new menubar with the option to approve/reject items or documents. This button must be visible when you select multiple items in the "Pending" state.

Add filter by view and search to recycle bin
We have thousands of documents in our recycle bin. I have no way of filtering them to those belonging to the specific view that I am searching for to recover deleted documents from. The only thing I can do with the gear is switch the view types. Please add filtering and search features to the recycle bin.

Add ability to grant permissions per columns for view lists of Custom lists

SharePoint Online のカスタム リストのビュー一覧に列単位のアクセス権を付与する機能の追加要望Add ability to grant permissions per columns for view lists of Custom lists
■Description(内容):
SharePoint Online のカスタム リストのビュー一覧において、現状では列単位にアクセス権限を与えることができません。例えば特定の列のみ、 [ユーザー A] は閲覧が可能だが [ユーザー B] のみ閲覧は不可などの列単位のアクセス権限の設定ができれば、アイテムごとに権限を付与するよりも、より大きい単位での管理が可能になり、業務の効率化に繋がります。そのためこの機能の追加を要望いたします。In the current design, we are not able to grant permission for each column at view lists in SharePoint Online Custom lists.
It will be great if we could grant permissions for a specific column, for example, [User A] can see the column while [User B] is not allowed to see it. We believe that it will improve the work efficiency rather than granting permissions just for each…27 votes -

Add the function of sorting files through Mobile View in the Document library.
I assume there is no function of view creation for mobile devices currently. I really hope the function will be implemented to sort files through Mobile View in the Document library as well.

Color coding for modern list Calendar views
Right now, it is not possible to color code the calendar view for modern lists based on choice fields or using JSON formatting. This would be a useful feature for calendars with many items. This would be something that would bring back functionality that classic Calendars were able to do.
