Embed MS Word docs (like we can a PDF doc)

Actions

Explain the problem as you see it

Currently, if we drag and drop a PDF - it allows us to expand the node to see the PDF. We can't do the same for a MS Word doc. One baby step would be to allow us to see the MS Word doc without the ability to edit it. Ultimately it would be ideal to edit it within Tana - but just seeing it without downloading it would be a huge step.

Why is this a problem for you?

I usually just want to reference the document- check a fact, something like that. I don't need to edit it - just view it. But I have to download it, open it in MS Word, then delete the downloaded file later. All just to view it.

Group-by with a multi-valued field will show up under each group-by area.

Actions

Explain the problem you see

If multiple values are selected in a field used to group-by (say Field:Type, Value: PodCast & Video are selected) - that node should show up under PodCAST and under Video in the group-by Type View option. Or at least have the option to show it in both places. I'm told there is a use case for it not to show up in both places.

Why is this a problem?

The resulting group-by list / table can be misleading. In the above example, when you group by TYPE, it won't show any video. Thus, it would be logical to think you have nothing in that category - when in fact, you do - it's just showing up under PODCAST as Video was the second selection.

I have several such sorts in the FAQ Slack workspace. And if people are looking only for videos, they will not find that one. This is especially true of my "TOPIC" group-by as any Video or Article will probably cover many topics.

Suggest a solution

If a group-by field has multiple values, enable allowing the node to show in all selected values in a group-by view option.
