With a task, can i click into it to add the task steps?

Question

For example one task is to make a tea, can i then click into the task and write the steps of how they make the tea in there?

I have a large number of tasks which have steps to them, and i want to click the task and open it up to see how its done, is this possible?

I don’t want to create another flow to explain how the task is done if i can avoid it

Hi ​@Sam.sayer! Thank you so much for reaching out to the Lucid Community.That is a great question!I completely understand wanting to keep your workspace clean and avoiding a separate flow for every single task.Since you are working in Lucidchart, there are a few different ways to achieve this. To make sure I give you the best recommendation, it would help to understand your current setup a bit better. Could you clarify a few things for me?What do you mean by "tasks"? Are these standard shapes (like process boxes), or are you using a specific feature like Lucid Cards?What is your ideal end goal? Could you describe exactly what you are trying to accomplish? What do you want to see happen when you click on the task? Are you wanting to click on a box that expands and shows a flowchart specific to that task? For example, clicking on a box that says “Tea” and then it expands to show a flow chart within that box that details the steps on how to make the tea.Can you share a screenshot? A visual of your current document showing these specific tasks would be incredibly helpful! (Just be sure to blur any confidential information).If you do not have a document createdjust yet, that is totally fine!Looking forward to hearing back so we can get this sorted out for you! You are more than welcome to bring up any further questions or concerns you may have.Best,Justin J.
