Would be great if we could add custom fields / attributes / metadata for selected elements.

For example, if you have a portfolio matrix or a project management board, you might just add the picture and title of the project/product to the board, but when selecting each item, you could add notes to it, some custom fields (like Asana) on timing, cost, category, deadline, โ€ฆ or any kind of note.

This would also be awesome to filter what is visible (or dimmed) on screen by any preset custom field.

Creately (Features | Creately) already has this kind of feature - which is mine opinion is a great advantage over Miro, but is implemented in a very clunky way.

Was it helpful?

this would be transformative imo. just take my money, take my kids, take my bike in exchange for this feature.

in addition to filtering, Iโ€™d like to suggest a few other thoughts 

  • the custom field management interface could be a table
  • tabs for different sets of custom fields
  • sorting view
  • conditional rules 
  • add metadata to lines/arrows (aka relationship types)
  • add formulas as a type of metadata/custom field 
  • link elements andโ€ฆ.rollup or lookup values from their custom fields
