Agreed guys!

And @Jean and @ChrisSparkT, curious your thoughts on this feature of Whiteboards:

> [@In Whiteboard, "Transparent" or "Empty" to represent Parent Entities](https://community.fibery.io/t/in-whiteboard-transparent-or-empty-to-represent-parent-entities/667):

> Hi guys, I’d like to ask if you could consider a aspect of Whiteboard where a parent entity could be viewed as an “empty block” or group around its children. Something like this: This is an image I did in reference to another work management app, but the point is that the “grouping” block would be the parent entity, with the “task” blocks the children. This is very useful for expressing software systems - tiers of development for example, or Master Features that contain many sub fe…

What I’d like to do is get some visualization of “grouping.” Chris, I have in fact been using Miro for this need…

I get the impression that you both may be after what I’m hoping for as the end goal of Whiteboard: Being able to see your Dev System visualized, with all the connections that actual exist in it on the various layers, live update?

And “both ways,” what I mean by that is you can **both create a diagram** , and then link it and create real linked and grouped components in the system, like micro services, integrations with third parties and show the directly data flows, etc; or, **auto generate the diagram from existing entities.**. Sorry for another plug, but I mentioned that here, too:

> Hi Guys, I wanted to ask about the ability for Whiteboards to show existing entities in an App, or even Cross-App, as well as relations. In my use of Whiteboards, which is a big reason I’m using Fibery over other solutions, I’d like to be able to both “create” in a whiteboard, then convert to Types and Entities, but also show what I have already set up in my work structure that exists within apps. Thankfully, you have made great strides on the former - it’s possible to do a lot right now to d…

Cheers!
