Table and Board views

Look at a Type's entries as a table or as a Kanban board grouped by a Select or Tag property — and switch between them.

Every Type's Entries tab can be looked at through more than one view. You start with the familiar Table, and you can add a Board (Kanban) that groups your entries into columns — for example, a Todo list split into columns by its status tag.

Switch between them with the bar at the top of the Entries tab:

  Entries   Properties   Description     ← Type tabs
 ───────────────────────────────────────
  ▦ Table    ▥ Board    +                ← view switcher
 ───────────────────────────────────────
  [ the active view shows here ]
  • Each pill is a saved view. Click one to switch; the choice rides the page URL, so you can bookmark or share a link straight to your Board.
  • The + adds a new Board view.
  • Your views are saved on the Type and sync to your other devices.

The Board view

A Board lays your entries out as cards in columns, grouped by one Select or Tag property. Each column is one option of that property, in the order you arranged the tags, with a count next to its name. A final "No …" column collects every entry that hasn't been given a value yet.

  Group by  [ Status ▾ ]                         🗑 Delete view

  │   + New      │ └──────────────┘ │   + New      │
  └──────────────┘                  └──────────────┘

Each card shows the entry's icon, its title, and a few of its other fields as small chips. Click a card to open the full entry.

Drag a card to change its group

Drag any card into another column to move it there — Kaizendex sets that entry's grouping value for you. Drop a card into the "No …" column to clear the value. The card jumps to its new column instantly; the change saves in the background.

Add a card straight into a column

Each column has a + New button at the bottom. It creates a fresh entry already tagged with that column's value and opens it, so you can fill in the rest. The "No …" column's + New creates an entry with no value set.

Choose what to group by

Use the Group by dropdown above the board to pick which Select/Tag property forms the columns. Any single-choice tag or select property works. (Multi-select properties can't drive a board yet — a card could land in several columns at once.)

If your Type has no Select or Tag property, the Board shows a short prompt instead of columns — add one on the Properties tab and it'll light up.

Remove a board

A board you no longer want? Click its name in the switcher (the active pill) and choose Delete from the little menu that drops down. You return to the Table. Deleting a view never touches your entries — it only removes that way of looking at them.

The Table view

The Table is unchanged — the same database table you already know, with inline editing, column resize/reorder, and the sub-entry matrix. It's always there as the first view, even if you never add a Board.

What's not here yet

  • Filtering and sorting — cards and rows show newest-first by event time; there's no per-view filter or sort control yet.
  • More view kinds — just Table and Board for now (no gallery, calendar, or timeline per Type).
  • Renaming a board — extra boards are named Board, Board 2, … automatically; custom names are a follow-up.
