Any way to display the value of a field AND action icon simultaneous in table view?

In table view if you have an Action associated with a field/column then only the action is displayed and not the value. Is there anyway to show both, or even choose which one?

I have many fields that have Actions attached to them, such as a open-hyperlink or copy-value-to-clipboard that I use mostly in a Detail view but as soon as an Action is associated to a field then in Table view only the Action icon(s) are shown. Even if I do a "show_if" in the Action to only show in Details view, the Table column will be blank.

The only workaround I know of is to create a virtual column that duplicates field and attach the Action to it, and then show both of the fields. This is cumbersome as I have over 50 of such fields.

Any other workarounds, or is this something Appsheet will improve?
