Working with multiple sheets in a spreadsheet page

A single sheet is enough for a quick list. As soon as the data has more than one dimension — a tracker per week, a tab per client, a sheet per quarter — you want multiple sheets in the same page. v0.7.0 makes that workflow first-class.

Sheet tabs can now be reordered by dragging. Grab a tab, drop it where you want it, and the new order is saved with the page. The active sheet stays active, no refresh needed. This sounds small but it is the difference between a spreadsheet you organize and one you tolerate.

Deleting a sheet finally works. Previously, the delete affordance existed but the sheet would reappear after a save or reload. That bug is gone. If you remove a sheet, it stays removed.

These two changes line up with a broader shift in how Yoinko treats spreadsheet pages. Imports can create multi-sheet workbooks. Formulas reference cells across sheets. The toolbar applies to the active sheet without leaking formatting into other tabs. The model is the model — sheets are real, ordered, and individually addressable.

A few patterns that work well now:

Per-period sheets — one tab per week or month for a recurring tracker. Reorder so the current period sits at the front.

Per-entity sheets — one tab per client, project, or vendor inside a single page, with a summary sheet that references each one.

Imported + derived — an imported CSV on one sheet, your annotated working copy on another. Keep the source untouched and edit the copy.

None of this requires a separate tool. Spreadsheet pages live in the same folder tree as everything else, get the same sharing and locking features, and are visible to the AI drawer when you ask questions about your data.

If you have been keeping spreadsheets outside Yoinko because the multi-sheet experience was rough, give v0.7.0 a try. The tabs finally behave.
