Feature card description field

← What's newappearance

The layer’s menu already set which field titles a feature and which one labels its category. It now also has a Description field, off by default. Point it at a field and that field’s value appears under the title on every row in the feature list: a species under a tree’s name, a condition under an asset’s.

The category label beside the icon is more compact, and the rows themselves are less cramped. Search results show the title and category fields too, so a result says what it is without being opened.

Each choice applies to the whole layer and is saved for it.

How to try it

  1. Open the layer’s menu at the top of the Data panel.
  2. Choose Description field and pick a field with something worth reading in it.
  3. Go back to the feature list: the values now sit under each title.

Exploring features in the User Guide covers this in full.
