To make team roadmaps, I’m trying to use Lucid to replace my Miro roadmaps. The Lucid cards are great, and the dynamic timeline is great. But, it’s missing a few key things.
 

  1. When I put a card into a Timeline, it loses a lot of the useful fields (tags, etc) from the card.
  1. Timelines support swimlanes, but only based on assignee or status. Each team has lines of effort they’re working on over the long term, and so we need to be able to group by these categories.

Right now, I have to manually create dynamic tables and manually place dates. The impact to this would be significantly better roadmap formats that are much more flexible than the current timeline implementation

Even funnier, if I create the tag outside of the timeline, I can add tags. Then, I drag it in, it loses the ability to modify/configure tags...but it still displays them!
