Hey guys,

Not sure if doable or not but would it be possible to allow defining custom formulas allowing to compute specific indicator based on Kanban columns content?

Computed value could be located under the column title (close to the count information when displayed).

Cheers.

> When using the “board” that is shown in every project. The count of objects is the total count across the system, rather than the objects related to the project currently being viewed. This makes the “count of objects” field not useful, as one expects it to match the count of the records returned to the view (e.g. 3 tasks) [image] [image] All the best,

Thanks Chris, my bad, didn’t checked the Bug section 🤦‍♂️

However, please note that this request is a bit more broad as including a customized computation (not sure if it can be workarounded by including the expected formula in the source database, hidding it from items’ UI and displaying it on the Kanban).

EDIT: couldn’t implement the workaround as not able to compute a value based on other items from a same database.

Yep, I just wanted to link them as related without merging them.
