Users are asking for functionality within the note-card or similar interface to be able to have full text editing capabilities, similar to a PDF editor, which would allow them the following (and more, reference PDF editor as needed). 

 

Another feature they requested was to have shapes that text can be added to (think of a balloon with an arrow on it) where the balloon can have text put in the middle with the arrow pointing to the line. This could be a shape with a connector if needed but having more defaults (custom created by customer if needed) or prebuilt to standard industry symbols and uses. The balloon reference is commonly used for tie-points for projects, another example could be a triangle with a number in it used commonly for revisions. 

 

Details requested for the shape of the box and the text functionality within it. (The users specifically said everything we can do with this product request entry text would be great with reference to this request pane). 


1. Change the format including shape (rectangle, circle, triangle, etc.), size (dimensions), color (border and internal)
2. Change the font color at a character level (not a whole card level), change the bold/italicized/underline of text, change the justification of the card.

Hi ​@Matthew Semanick,

Thank you for your feedback. Please see my feedback inline. 

1. Change the format including shape (rectangle, circle, triangle, etc.), size (dimensions), color (border and internal)
We already have in the product the option to choose a shape (we can also add more shapes if needed). For the available shapes, you can already change the dimension and colour. 
Which shapes would be for your interest to add? Currently, we have the following (in the following days will also add cloud shape):

 



2. Change the font color at a character level (not a whole card level), change the bold/italicized/underline of text, change the justification of the card.

Added to our roadmap for H2’25

Thank you,
Andreea.
