I'm creating a mind map where some of the shapes have an attached action. However looking at the mind map I don't know which shapes have actions and which ones don't. Is there a way to identify which shapes have attached actions without clicking or hovering over specific shapes? I was thinking conditional formatting would be useful but I couldn't find a formula function that would work.
Idea
Conditional formatting to show a shape has an attached action
Hi Dylan
Thank you for posting in the Lucid Community! Unfortunately Lucidchart currently does not have a feature that would identify or conditionally format shapes to identify attached action items. I personally use and recommend manually using a mixture of different shape outlines and shape colors to highlight which items I have added additional elements to.
We're always looking for ways to improve Lucidchart and your feedback is the best way for us to do that. Would you mind adding your idea to our feature request form? Ideas submitted to this form are passed on to the product development team for their consideration.
I see this as a need as well. If I apply a "Link to page" action to a shape I always change its color. If a formula could do that automatically it would be a tremendous help.
+20@network a Thanks for continuing this thread and sharing additional details about your use case! I've logged your feedback and will pass it along to our development team for their consideration. We appreciate your request - it helps us keep improving Lucidchart!
+1This would be extremely useful because otherwise there is no way to know if a shape is linked unless you hover over it.
Even if I had to write a formula to grab a property from the shape, that would do the trick!
