Can't resize entity cards in Whiteboard view

Hi Fibery team !

It seems like you can’t resize entity objects in the Whiteboard view. I’m logging this as a UX bug as this is unexpected behavior for a whiteboard where all objects should be resizable (within limits).

Some example use cases are over here:

[DONE] Change fields displayed by entity in whiteboard view

Hey Fibery team, great work on your product and marketing! I’d like to be able to toggle what fields are displayed by an entity in the whiteboard view. For example, a contact card could display name and job title. My particular use case is visualizing the status and ownership of a range of processes in a physical (manufacturing) and digital (ecommerce) space. This would also enable the creation of dynamic org charts like this: https://community.fibery.io/t/org-chart-in-whiteboards/565/3 I’d…

Maybe you could bundle an update together and all of a sudden Fibery will have the best digital whiteboard for working with structured data!

thanks!

I second this. I have basically given up Whiteboard for now, this was a very big piece that was missing. I would really like to use Whiteboard to represent entities in Fibery, not for creating diagrams that do not have an equivalent in Fibery. I can see why you’d think this was a bug as it also was very surprising to see this feature missing when I was testing out Whiteboard initially.

Thanks!
