Last updated:July 22, 2026

This FAQ covers 4 common questions about scope, field display, drag behavior, and collaboration sync, plus a short glossary for board-related terms.

FAQ

Does card management only work in board view?

  1. Card management is mainly used to adjust how cards appear in a board.
  2. The related guidance also notes that card management can be used in gallery-style views, but the layout differs by view.
  3. If you are not in a supported card-based view, switch to a relevant view first and then continue.

Can I customize which fields appear on a card?

  1. Open Tools and then Card Management.
  2. Use Add Field to add fields you want to display, or use Edit to change field names and types.
  3. Then combine Hide and drag-based reordering to decide which fields appear on the card and in what order.

Why does the status change when I drag a card?

  1. Cards in a board are usually arranged by a grouping field.
  2. When you drag a card into another group column, the related grouping field value is updated at the same time.
  3. If you only want to change card content display, use card management settings instead of moving the card between columns.

Will my card settings affect other collaborators?

  1. Yes. Card settings are shared settings.
  2. When you reorder or hide fields, collaborators see the updated card layout as well.
  3. In team scenarios, it is helpful to agree on a shared display rule before making broad changes.
