# π [NocoDB](https://nocodb.com) Feature Release : Formula Column can be Display-Value column π
## π₯¬ What's new .. What's fresh ?

### Display-Value column can be formula and sticky :
* One of the most requested feature was to make the Display-Value column as formula and sticky.
* Formula column as sticky would mean : you can combine regular columns of a table and lookups to easily and uniquely recognisable value for that row. Specially helpful when you are browsing a LinkToAnotherRecord
* A sticky display-value would mean : you can horizontally scroll the spreadsheet without losing the context of the display-value.
PS : **Primary-Value** columns are now called **Display-Value** columns
### Filters are now business users friendly
* We've introduced two new filter types `is blank` and `is not blank`, which filter outs the blank cells (null or empty values).
* By default, `is null`, `is not null`, `is empty` and `is not empty` will be hidden. However, you can enable back by checking `Show NULL and EMPTY in Filter` in Project Setting.
Besides, some filter types will be removed or migrated. Please refer below summary for reference.
