Colorful Icons Make Quick Base More Productive

[The Quick Base Knowledge Base is your library of frequently-asked questions that help you better customize your apps to solve your business problems.]

We have over 2500 multi-purpose graphics available on our servers so you can colorize and enliven your Quick Base applications. Now you can display status, priority and virtually any condition with colorful, eye-catching icons. There are 502 icons loaded in five standard pixel sizes 16x16, 24x24, 32x32, 48x48 and 128x128.

The cool part of this announcement is that these graphics will load quickly and are not subject to roles and permission checking in Quick Base. The result... large reports can now update many graphics without delay.

Below is a sampling of some of the icons: 













One example of how to use the graphics in your Quick Base:

1. Create a formula rich text field for one of your tables.

2. Browse and select from any of the 2500 icons linked at https://login.quickbase.com/db/9kaw8phg?a=ShowPage&pageid=134
