About This Feature

Overview

Kanban View Card Management is a configuration feature in WPS Office for Windows multi-dimensional tables that helps you manage card cover sources, cover display style, and the fields shown on each card.

Main tasks include:

Set a card cover by choosing a field and switching between Fit and Crop display styles.
Hide or show fields so each card displays only the information you need.
Edit or delete fields from the card management panel when the current board layout needs adjustment.

This setup is useful for project tracking, task follow-up, content workflows, and sales pipeline management, where teams need a clearer card layout and faster visual scanning.

Capability Summary	Lets you set a card cover field, switch between Fit and Crop cover styles, and hide, show, edit, or delete fields from card management in a kanban view.	Planner lets each task card show a preview from a photo, file, link, checklist, or description on the board.	Google Sheets official help covers row and column visibility controls such as hide, group, and freeze, but it does not describe a native kanban card cover and field management feature in Sheets.	Notion board view supports card previews, Fit image, property visibility controls, and drag-and-drop card ordering.	Adobe Workfront Boards lets you hide or show card fields and add existing custom fields to cards, but new custom fields are not created inside a board.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS brings cover selection, cover style, and field visibility into one card management panel. Distinct: It also provides a direct path to edit or delete fields while adjusting the current board view.	Compared with WPS: Microsoft focuses more on task preview content, and the cited page does not present the same combined field-display management flow in one panel.	Compared with WPS: Google Sheets does not present a native same-component kanban card management entry in the cited help content.	Compared with WPS: Notion offers flexible property and image preview controls, but field editing depends on database property settings.	Compared with WPS: Adobe supports field visibility control, but custom fields must already exist in Workfront before they can be added to cards.
Official Source	—	Set a preview picture for a task	Freeze, group, hide, or merge rows & columns	Board view	Customize which fields are displayed on a card

Overall Conclusion: If you want to adjust card covers and visible fields directly inside the current kanban view, WPS provides a more centralized setup path. Notion and Adobe also support card display customization, while Google Sheets is better aligned with spreadsheet layout control than native kanban card management.

Use Cases

No.	Scenario	Suitable for	Main issue	How this feature helps
1	Project board cleanup	Project managers, team leads	Cards contain too much information to scan quickly	Hide secondary fields and keep only key items such as owner and due date
2	Content workflow tracking	Operations and editorial teams	Card covers look inconsistent across tasks	Choose one cover field and apply Fit or Crop for a more consistent layout
3	Sales pipeline review	Sales and customer success teams	Too many fields make lead review slower	Show only customer name, stage, owner, and other key fields
4	Design schedule planning	Design and marketing teams	Image previews are inconsistent across cards	Set an image-based cover and choose the cover style that fits the content
