The Board view presents sub-notes in columns for a Kanban-like experience.
Each column represents a possible value for a status label, which can be
adjusted.
How it works
When first creating a collection of Board type, a few subnotes
will be created, each having a #status label set. The board
then groups each note by the value of the status attribute.
Notes are displayed recursively, so even the child notes of the child
notes will be displayed. However, unlike the Table View, the notes are not displayed
in a hierarchy.
Interaction with columns
Create a new column by pressing Add Column near the last column.
Once pressed, a text box will be displayed to set the name of the column.
Press Enter to confirm.
To reorder a column, simply hold the mouse over the title and drag it
to the desired position.
To delete a column, right click on its title and select Delete column.
To rename a column, click on the note title.
Press Enter to confirm.
Upon renaming a column, the corresponding status attribute of all its
notes will be changed in bulk.
If there are many columns, use the mouse wheel to scroll.
Interaction with notes
Create a new note in any column by pressing New item
Enter the name of the note and press Enter.
Doing so will create a new note. The new note will have an attribute (status label
by default) set to the name of the column.
To change the state of a note, simply drag a note from one column to the
other to change its state.
The order of the notes in each column corresponds to their position in
the tree.
It's possible to reorder notes simply by dragging them to the desired
position within the same columns.
It's also possible to drag notes across columns, at the desired position.
For more options, right click on a note to display a context menu with
the following options:
Open the note in a new tab/split/window or quick edit.
Move the note to any column.
Insert a new note above/below the current one.
Delete the current note.
If there are many notes within the column, move the mouse over the column
and use the mouse wheel to scroll.
Configuration
Grouping by another attribute
By default, the label used to group the notes is #status.
It is possible to use a different label if needed by defining a label named #board:groupBy with
the value being the attribute to use (without # attribute prefix).
Interaction
Limitations
It is not possible yet to use group by a relation, only by label.
