Collapsible Columns in Card View

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

When you have a card view with multiple columns that contain many cards, organizing cards can become difficult or tedious for different reasons:

1) Visual clutter: If you have 4-5 or more columns that all contain a good number of cards, it becomes difficult to parse.

2) Rendering can slow down significantly.

Why is this a problem for you?

It makes it more difficult to see signal from noise - makes it more difficult to focus.

ADHD: Seeing something I didn't need to see easily distracts me from the organizational task that is already difficult for my brain. Having options to hide the unnecessary from my brain is how I choose my tools - outliners are amazing for that and Tana takes it even further. It is one of the reasons why I like to spend time categorizing my information and reminders.

Suggest a solution

Make it so you can collapse a column - It is still there and functions as a drop target, but the cards stay hidden until you expand the column.
