Resources and activity layers are difficult to browse in the small popups in row customization, and they don’t show any meaningful hierarchy. This hierarchy can be derived based on naming conventions. This is how Raven handles browsing, and it’s a common convention in file systems, and its a pattern within aerie.
This approach provides a better browse and experience, makes it easier to find and bulk add items to a row.
Feature request / proposed solutions
A browse panel with a folder structure for resources and activities
Ability to drag parent items (folders) or individual items on to a resource or activity layer.
Explore ability create a row from activity table filters, or to copy table filters and add to an existing row.
A more simple approach might be to overhaul the popover browser for activities and resources.
