My notes have multiple properties that can appear in multiple combinations. Currently, I use DB Folder like the core Bases plugin, except that DB Folder lets me set up filter groups that I can quickly enable/disable by clicking on their buttons across the top bar.
Currently, the only way to quickly switch filters in Bases is to create views for every combo of filters possible. This quickly becomes untenable. If I have properties A, B, C, D that are independent, I want to be able to turn on/off filtering for each instead of having to make views of every combo of ABCD possible.
Proposed solution
I propose adding enable/disable switches for filter groups, and to show corresponding enable/disable buttons across the top bar, similar to DB Folder. This would do a great job of filling the top space between the view selector and filters+properties. Here are some mockups of how it could look:
That would be super useful. At the moment I’m creating different Tables for my Filter Views.
For example if I want to show “Status” and be able to toggle between them I’m creating a Table and Setting the Filter to “InProgress” and then toggling the View.
Your idea would make it easier to toggle between “Status” using the Filter
Ideally I would like Bases to mimic Notion eventually, easier to click to a view as they’re all inline and if you need to choose a filter you do so like below
Putting this here as it is along the same lines, would be great to have a “hide entire header” / read-only flag in the syntax. Especially for inline bases
For example, you might have a filter that shows all the notes for this month. But if you want to see all notes, you don’t want to remove the filter — just disable it.
Filter groups can have a toggle that disables all the filters inside that group.
Please GOD I need this specific feature!!!
For all the exact reasons stated above, this would be phenomenal and remove unnecessary redundancy in my setup.
Thank you!
button than would disable the rule and make it appear dimmed.
