Expanded database table view #8841

Open fungs opened 1 week ago

fungs commented 1 week ago

Description

As far as I can tell, there is no convenient way to expand a database table for viewing or editing.

Use case

Looking at AppFlowy, which has a very similar set of functionality, they unfold database table in the document tree view and allow opening them individually, which is much more convenient for tables with more than 3 columns and many rows. Otherwise, the space is just too limited, and you end up scrolling a lot in both directions.

I think you can work around this by putting the table into a separate edgeless document and embedding it with a suitable zoom factor, but that seems awkward to just be able to use the available screen space when working with tables in a document.
