More visible formula errors

Here’s what’s new:

Highlight broken formulas in red

It’s now easier to spot when a formula is broken:

  • In the formula editor: if a formula references a deleted driver, the pill shows up in red.
  • Now, in formula columns within tables: the same red highlighting applies

This way, you can see errors in your formulas at a glance by scanning down the formula column.

Small changes, big improvements

  • When you delete an actuals formula for a driver shown as a time-series, the actuals formula gets removed and properly inherits a default formula.
  • For default formulas set on a database column, the actuals formula display shows the inherited default formula, instead of an empty actuals formula state.

Database improvements

A handful of updates that make databases faster and cleaner.

Time series view

  • Filtered drop-downs: Only columns containing time series data show up when you’re picking a series from the CustomizeTime Series menu on a database block.
  • Hidden columns auto-unhide: Switch a database into time series view, and you’ll always see the full picture. No missing data hiding in the background.

Fix for multiple filters on the same property

Applying multiple filters on the same property now evaluates as AND instead of OR.

  • Example: Department IS NOT (Sales, Marketing) correctly returns everything except Sales and Marketing.
  • Works for both IS and IS NOT operators.

Bring in more history

Need more than the default sync window?

You can now set a custom start year for data syncs and pull in longer historical records. Useful for analyzing trends over many years (not just the default window). Ask your CXM if you need to pull in data from an earlier date.

HRIS-sourced fields stay locked

Dimensions coming from an HRIS integration (like Rippling) can’t be renamed anymore, preventing broken links.

  • Now, if you try to rename an HRIS-sourced dimension, you’ll see a tooltip explaining why the name is fixed.
  • Everything stays in sync with the source system automatically.

Mention anything with @. Drill in faster.

Two upgrades that make Runway reporting more robust and more responsive.

Mention anything

You can now mention almost anything in a text block:

  • @ a model, database, page, or driver
  • Mention specific rows from a database like key customers or teammate checklists.
  • Mention values using a relative date (like “Last Close” or “3 months from now”).
  • Pages now stay up to date as time moves forward.

Mentions are clickable, live-linked, and stay accurate even if display names change.

Drill-in/out faster

We’ve made expanding and collapsing rows faster, even for large orgs and heavy datasets.

  • Drill-ins feel snappy.
  • Smoother navigation across big models and databases.

Shift dates. Paste anywhere. Strike through with ease.

Some much-requested power-ups for writing, editing, and working with data:

All date drivers on the Plans timeline

Any date driver whose formula resolves to a date now shows up as an event in the Plans timeline.

  • Drag to change the date. The driver value updates instantly (and vice versa).
  • Delete the event from the timeline to clear the formula.
  • Re-add the value in the driver to bring the event back.

Now you can use Plans for revenue contract modeling, new product launches, bonus payout timing, and more!

Note: To backfill timeline events for existing date drivers, just copy the driver value and paste it back. This triggers the timeline event creation.

New strikethrough shortcut: Cmd+Shift+S

Strikethrough now works the way you expect, and the tooltip shows the shortcut.

Paste into large databases (even unloaded rows)

You can now paste large datasets into any database, even if the destination rows haven’t loaded yet.

  • Pasted values are properly applied to all target rows, regardless of what’s loaded.
  • No need to scroll and preload rows first.

Paste bug fixes

  • We’ve fixed a bug where drivers didn’t update after editing a segment attribute in time series view.
  • Fixed paste repeat logic: you can now paste 1 2 3 into a longer range like 1 2 3 1 2, and it’ll repeat correctly. No perfect multiples required.

Resize formula editor. Load pages faster.

A few upgrades to make working in Runway smoother, especially for teams building big, complex pages.

Resize formula editor

You can now resize the formula editor with a simple drag.

  • The editor starts out small by default, just like before.
  • But now you can stretch it up to 80% of your screen — ideal for writing longer logic.

Small changes, big impact

Optional row numbers in databases

Need to reference a specific row? You can now enable Row Number by clicking Customize → Columns → Row Number in the top-right corner of any database.

  • Hidden by default — shows up only if you want it.
  • Great for scanning long tables without sorting or filtering.

Lazy loading for block rows on pages

Pages with lots of content now load way faster.

  • Blocks are loaded as you scroll, instead of all at once. No change to how things look or scroll — just a snappier feel.

Loading states for database cells

Database grids now show shimmering loading placeholders when calculations are still running. This makes it clear that the system’s still crunching numbers.

Block resizing. Exporting for all users.

Two highly requested upgrades, now live for everyone.

Drag to resize blocks on a page

Need more room for a driver label?

You can now resize blocks by dragging their edges, just like spreadsheet columns.

  • Works when blocks are laid out side by side in the same row.
  • Resize widths with a simple click and drag.
  • No need to rebuild layouts or guess at proportions.

Makes it easier to tidy up pages, and see the information you need.

All roles can now export (with safeguards)

Exporting to CSV is now available to all user roles, not just Admins.

  • Managers, Members, and Guests can now export models and databases.
  • Any restricted fields or rows are automatically excluded.
  • What you’re allowed to see is what you’re allowed to export.

This keeps your data sharing flexible, while respecting every permission rule you’ve set.

Activity History, leveled up

A better way to see what changed — and when

The new Activity History gives you a precise, navigable trail of every update made in your scenario.

  • Clickable links to open changed drivers, models, or queries.
  • See both relative and exact timestamps.
  • Save any version of a scenario as a locked snapshot.

This makes it easier to track changes or investigate issues.

Small changes, big impact

Redo now uses Cmd+Y

We’ve remapped redo from Cmd+Shift+Z to Cmd+Y — a more familiar shortcut for most people, especially if you're coming from Excel or Windows.

Country flags now show on Windows

Country flags used to go missing in the Windows emoji picker. That’s now fixed — you’ll see all the same emoji options as Mac users.

Centered month labels in comparison view

When you compare scenarios with variance columns, the month label now appears centered across the group — making reports easier to read at a glance.

New Rippling fields, and other improvements

Here’s what’s new in Runway this week:

Sync more data from Rippling

You can now pull in Country and Work Email as dimensions from Rippling.

Just trigger a re-sync — they’ll show up automatically in your model.

Group-by is now more flexible

We’ve extended our recent database sorting improvements to Group by:

  • Group by now lives at the top of your database view, alongside Filter and Sort.
  • You can choose a specific date or rollup to determine how values are grouped — just like you would when sorting.

Compare view shows the actual scenario name

The Customize dropdown now shows the name of the current scenario, so it’s easier to tell which one you’re in.

Go to Customize → Compare → Scenarios to check it out.

Chart upgrades for clearer stories

Here’s what’s new:

Roll up chart data by month, quarter, or year

You can now adjust chart rollups to match your reporting cadence.

  • Works on time series charts like bar, line, and area.
  • Pick Monthly, Quarterly, or Annual from Chart settings → Rollup.
  • Choose when the Fiscal year starts to line things up the way your business actually runs.

Cleaner chart legends when comparing scenarios

We cleaned up how chart legends look and work:

  • Simplified labels are now the default.
  • All new charts now show legend by default.
  • Attribute labels are sorted consistently, so they show up in the same order everywhere in Runway.

Small changes, big impact

Here’s what’s new:

Insert drivers faster with shortcuts

You can now insert drivers above or below using keyboard shortcuts — just like you would in Excel or Sheets.

  • Cmd + Option + = → Insert driver above
  • Cmd + Option + – → Insert driver below

Shortcuts are also available in the right-click menu.

Smarter Segment by in databases

  • Search for the segment you need without scrolling.
  • Type a new name to instantly create a new dimension.

Improved time-series view in databases

When you're modeling directly in a database, but want a clean time-series view, you can now hide or show formulas just like you do in driver tables.

Find your place with ‘Reveal in sidebar’

Lost in a complex model?

Click Reveal in sidebar (or hit Command/Ctrl + Shift + S) to jump to where you are in the page tree — without scrolling through the sidebar.

Description fields and customized database rollups

Here's what's new:

Add context with driver descriptions

You’ve always been able to add a description to a driver, but until now it was only displayed in the detail pane.

You can now show and edit them directly in tables — right alongside formulas and actuals.

  • The new description column lives right in databases, pages, and models.
  • It’s fully editable from either the column or the driver detail pane.
  • Supports multiline text, undo/redo, and copy/paste (line breaks included).

Perfect for callouts, handoffs, or remembering why “Operating Margin” exists.

More flexible rollups and sorting in databases

We’ve made database rollups easier to read, and sorting easier to control.

  • Each database column now shows a “rollup pill” to indicate what time range it's using to summarize values. The default is Last close, but you can click to change it.
  • Choose from built-in summaries like Sum, Avg, First → Last, or a specific date.
  • You can now control how each filter sorts — pick a specific date, a dynamic range like This month, or use a summary value like Average or Sum.

Small changes, big impact

  • Filters are now searchable and keyboard-friendly. Use arrow keys to navigate, and hit Enter to select.
  • Escape closes just the filter you’re editing, not the whole menu.
  • Filter popovers close when you click outside, fixing a bug where dropdown menus could be shown stacked on top of each other.
  • Driver cells shimmer when recalculating. That means if something takes a second, you’ll know why. You’ll also know when calculations complete

Formula upgrades, and accounting-friendly formatting

Here’s what’s new — improvements that make your formulas more powerful, and your formatting more flexible:

Write smarter logic with AND() and OR()

Use AND() or OR() in your formulas to model multiple expressions at once. We support either option now.

This works with boolean expressions, numbers, dates, drivers, attributes, and even nested groups.

Pull numbers from dates

We’ve added helper functions that extract numbers from dates. Use them like this:

  • year(2025-03-08)2025
  • quarter(2025-03-08)1
  • month(2025-03-08)3
  • weeknum(2025-03-08)2
  • day(2025-03-08)8

They work on any date expression — whether it’s a literal date, or a reference to a driver. Helpful when you’re segmenting data, running rollups, or just trying to answer “what happened in Q3?”

Apply your accounting format globally

You can now control how negative numbers appear across your entire workspace.

Under global settings, choose from:

  • Default: -100
  • Parentheses: (100)
  • Accounting: $(100)

This makes it easier to standardize formatting across pages — without adjusting individual cells.

Quicker access to permissions

When you click Share in a page, you’ll now see a direct link to the full user access settings. So you can review, adjust, or lock things down — without losing your place.
