Text/Commentary on cards

Currently, I don't think there is capability of adding text/commentary to cards (very useful to highlight and state key insights related to card). 

 

I realize there is DOMO BUZZ and card description options but would be more beneficial to add to the card itself.

 

Is this a concern from other users? Will this be a addition to DOMO in the future? If so, when can we expect this capability?

 

Thanks,

 

James

    Yes, having annotation ability would be useful to me.  I have several cards that I would like to put in a comment for a specific date that we acquired a new company which would  help explain the abrupt jump in the stats.

    Sorry, not sure if I missed something but those two links you posted didn't provide any ideas/tips...just the same comment/question I mentioned.

    We will have an update soon from product management on the release of this functionality.

     

    If you had something different in mind then please post a new idea.

    If your commentary is reportable, bring it into DOMO with your dataset. Use the commentary column as a series in your card and when you hover over the series it will display the string value as a text box.

     

    I used this in a stacked bar graph making a timeline of sorts. I did this by plotting the "Notes" as the series and count. Where the X axis is the date of the comment. I displayed this by day, and resulted in a simple timeline of events. 

     

    There are some downsides to this but it works pretty slick.
