Hey another astute observation!

Asana stepped up their game with this. Originally there was no inclusion of the comments in that column, just the current status. But the combo status/comment visual is very nice.

But yes, I think we would be well-served in Fibery to simply have the comment available in Table view, and you could create something equally effective, as we’d have _custom_ statuses, via Workflow Extension, which Asana doesn’t offer, and you could just move that in the Table view to be next to your comment’s field. ClickUp’s approach is more that way, but ClickUp is insufficient here as well as you can only do this on the Task level. So here you see when comparing both cases how Fibery is superior in getting an even better view for a team.

All we need now is the ability to see Comments as an available field in Tables, along with Rich Text as I mentioned earlier.

This could all pull together wonderfully with some wrapping capabilities around these requests:

> Hi again, Small request here: I have been using the “compact” card view frequently. It’s very useful for things like a board that is an “Idea Bank,” or entities that are data types and present well in such a small format. However, I’ve noticed that if there are too many columns, the text will “run off the end” of the card: Could you guys allow for that text to wrap so that you had two lines of text on the Compact Card? I think that’s a much better alt…

> +10 The ability to wrap text, but also be able to wrap column headers is an awesome feature of coda. I’m currently evaluating moving from coda to fibery so getting these little details right on tables matters a a lot! Tables imho are extremely important to get right given that’s what many of us are used to, be it excel or google sheets. Many other coda things like being able to arrow key tab through multiple images (eg like a gallery view) attached to a cell would be great.

and your very relevant request!:

> I agree with this too. I find the “cutting off” of text around Fibery something that is problematic, and I’d wish would be prioritized to be fixed. Here’s another example:
