Description

I use dialog for editing my cards.

If i create a new card, I have to scroll down and click it for editing further details.

It would be helpful to have a option like "open card after creating it".

Current Workflow: 4 Steps before a user can edit details

  • Create card -> Scroll down -> Click it -> Click description field -> Insert futher details

Expected Workflow: 1 Step and user can edit details

  • Create card -> Dialog opens automaticly -> Set focus on description field -> Insert futher details

Research direction

Start by tracing the JavaScript card-creation flow and the existing card-edit dialog behavior. Check how the newly created card is selected and how the description field receives focus. Done means an optional setting opens the dialog for a new card and focuses its description field without changing the default workflow.
