I have a board that combines several task databases from different spaces into one “all tasks” view. On that view I set up filters and a few color coding rules, and they apply across all the databases at once. I set them up one time in the All Databases tab and they work for everything. So far so good.
The problem starts when I add another database to the same view. The moment I add it, the filters that were shared across all databases get broken out into a separate copy for each database. The color coding rules do the same thing. So instead of one filter that applies to all databases, every database now has its own copy, and the All Databases tab stops showing a single shared filter. It says it can’t display filters from different databases together.
I didn’t expect that. I expected the filters and color rules I already had to just keep applying to all the databases, the new one included, the same way they did before I added it.
So my question is, is this how it’s supposed to work? Is there a way to add a database to a view that already has filters and colors set up, without them getting split apart per database? Right now adding a single database forces me to set everything up again for each database, or rebuild the view from scratch.
One more thing I noticed: after this happens, the pinned quick filters at the top also stop merging and show up repeated for each database.
