I have been using Fibery to run meetings, where I take notes, convert notes into Tasks, Issues, etc. However, I find that I don’t convert text to entities as often as I’d like due to the amount of time it takes. While it is reasonably quick, when you are running a meeting it ends up causing a lot of…

There is LOTS of room for improvement in the Fibery UI/UX experience, especially when it comes to keyboard shortcuts, navigation and optimization. TOO MUCH room for improvement. It is an impediment to adoption for me.

[image] rothnic: This particular issue is more apparent the more databases there are in the workspace. Many times the type of entity you want to create gets lost in the sea of databases. This is a great point. I think for those that are comfortable keyboard shortcuts, current setup for creati…

Here’s a weirdness in the keyboard handling when using CTRL+E to create a new entity inline in a Rich Text: After you select the text and hit CTRL+E, the Type-selection popup appears and you start entering the name of the Type you want, and the options are filtered as you type. So far so good. At…
