[DONE] View of images in Board View

[Holger_Winkelmann]

I really would love to consider an Outline/folder view for document?

[edunv]

Just to say I hope full Gallery View is still somewhere on the roadmap. It would be very helpful to get a visual overview of a group or collection.

Is this close to your request?

[DONE] Table of Contents block or other function

I was surprised to not find an existing feature request for this one, but I did search a bit and only found brief mentions in otherwise unrelated discussions. So the request is simple: some kind of Table of Contents feature, for docs, certainly, but perhaps even just overall for Rich Text. Maybe even as a kind of Block in the upcoming [IN DEV] Migrate Entity View to Blocks paradigm. Personally, though, I’d love to see it as something that can optionally “float” or exist outside/alongside the ma…

Good to get some support here!

How do I show this? I’m only seeing the file count.

+1 for a gallery view.

I’d like more ways to see and work with images in general.

We’ve started implementation today . | Fibery

Awesome! And really helpful for the content hub that I’m building

[saulshanabrook]

Are there any workaround currently for having any sort of view which shows a photo associated with each item?

[Chr1sG]

Feed view allows you to see the contents of a rich text field, so if an image is present, it will show up there.

[saulshanabrook]

Thank you! That works great for now

[Louis-FelixBorealys]

I’m pretty hyped about this!

Implemented in latest release

May 18, 2023 / Files in Documents, Images on Board View, Dynamic values in relation filters, Readwise integration

It was too calm here, but now it is time to shake this space with the new release that includes some loooong-awaited features. Images on Board View We tried to implement this feature twice but never succeeded. Finally, it is there. You may see images (uploaded into Files section in an entity) as covers on a Board View. Here is the flow: Upload an Image in Files section inside an entity. Go to Board View, click Fields and select Files and media as a cover image. You may also …

I know this is “done”, but before I make a new feature request (as a prior one has been removed for some reason), I do think it makes sense to have a separate “Gallery” or “Grid” view. Kanban/Board requires some data to establish number of rows/columns (i.e. referencing fields), and it makes sense to me to have a simpler view that just shows a specified number of columns with rows as-needed for the number of items in the view. Perhaps alternative/ideally just specify the size of the image thumbnail and the columns auto-adjust to the view…

Anyway just wanted to confirm this is a separate feature request that is worth having before I make it. Oh wait, there is a request for it! And apparently someone is interested in such a view even without image support. If we go with this existing task I think I’d want to rename it to be clearer, the description there even points out the Airtable “Gallery” view as an example.

Feed view: vertical "cards" instead of horizontal blocks

I use the Feed view for a few things, but because I don’t have long text fields, the Feed view ends up being a kind of a screen hog, horizontally speaking. Lots of wasted space. Wondering if it might be possible to do a “compact” version of that view, with the items in a grid. I can get something like it in Airtable - they call it Gallery view, and you can add images, but I don’t need images for my work in Fibery. And I don’t mean a Kanban style view with columns - just a plain old grid of por…

New view type: Gallery View

I would like to propose the addition of a “Gallery View”. This view would display entities as a predefined number of blocks arranged horizontally, much like a grid. However, unlike a Kanban board, it would not have the functionality of moving entities between different columns or stages. Instead, it would function more like a list view but with blocks instead of rows. The Gallery View would provide a visually appealing and efficient way to manage and view entities. It would be particularly usef…

@mdubakov Is there a way that we could have the cover images either default to the entity’s avatar image (if it has one), or have an option to use the “double-letter-avatar-placeholder” and the actual avatar image as a source for the cover images?

Edit: I guess we are uploading these avatars via the API, so I could just link the same photo file to the entity’s avatar AND include it in its files list as well. That would bypass this problem, without taking up any more file storage space. The above would still be a nice feature though.

Or maybe avatars should be included automatically in an entity’s files…?

[mdubakov]

Eventually (but I don’t know when), we will make File a usual field, so it will be possible to have several File fields (and avatar is a special case for that). When it will be done, it will be possible to select File field as cover image on a card. However, till that unification we will not change current behavior, unfortunately

[carson]

Ok, that works great for me.
