Anchor Display of Data - CReW Inspired UX update

Dear UX Usual Suspects,

 

I've created a video for you to observe the idea:

 

 

With 400+ fields available, I find it challenging when I am validating my formula output to look at the "Referenced" fields of data plus the new data fields.  It would be oh-so-nice to press a button and look only at the "valuable" data.

 

How about you?  Do you want a little of this idea @Hollingsworth @T_Willins  @Aguisande @NicoleJ 

 

Cheers,

 

Mark

I love this idea... (And Formula defaulting to Input anchor too!)

I guess this will be a very nice improvement in development/debugging times within Designer. And there is enough "whitespace" in the Result's panel toolbar to put it.

I think this is a good idea, Mark. Any features that will reduce "scroll and hunt" time is good!

"That's not part of what I was expecting to happen" haha 

 

Crazy idea... what if you were able to expand each different output column you're editing and the fields displayed in the Results Window update based on that?

 

For example, I have two output columns expanded here so the Results Window would show all fields related to these two expressions (here, Field1 and Field2):

Now only the expression for Field1 is expanded so the Results Window would update to only show the fields related to this expression (here, just Field1):
