Use case
Currently the expanded record simply shows list of fields one after another.
Suggested solution
It would be great if we can set the layout in the expanded record, like Twenty CRM or Nocobase:
- Two/three columns of fields (to easily see First Name, Last Name side by side and not one below another)
- Group certain fields in a collapsible widget like Twenty CRM (to hold similar or related fields together, can easily collapse and expand the widget)
- Widget to show the records of Associated Table (like Twenty CRM) if the table has LTAR (to view related Emails, Tasks, Notes, etc in the Expanded view of a record)
- And overall, customisable Tabs to store such columns, groups, widgets in the Expanded view
Additional context
This would make Nocodb more versatile, and also currently Expanded Record view lacks customizations. You may add it in Business or Plus plan, that's okay. But it is definitely needed.
