For the pre-configured “State” field, the value “Done” (or whatever you name the last state on the list) is configured to grey out the belonging entity in within entity view. See example:

It would be nice to have that option for a) other states, either by being able to select within the edit view here:

for ALL single select fields, not just pre configured.

Or, an option within the color coding filter:

You can already configure that for other states – but I agree that it’s kind of like a hidden feature 😅

This is very good to know, but maybe I’d want “dropped” projects to be greyed out as well without having to see checkmark.

Obviously a very minor and unimportant thing 😅

I understand and to do that the only way I found was to implement my own “Status” field:

- based on the single select field where you define the status you want
  - bonus point you can choose a nice icon

- you also add a “State” field with the Open & Done states
- Do not expose the "State field
- Create an automation mapping
  - your “open” Statuses to the Open state
  - and your final statuses like “Dropped” in your case to the Done state

You can obtain something like
