[Feature Request] [Wishlist] - Custom Attributes on Nodes
StoltHD opened this issue · comments
It would be great to have Custom Attributes for Nodes... where we could set important values in a structured way, instead of having those in unstructured text in the Description field...
IT would also be great if one of those Attributes was "TYPE", so that it was possible to set a type on a Node, i.e. Country, County, Person, Government Office, Document, Repository, Archive, Newspaper and so on...
Actually any description of a object that can be set in a structured data pair, should be set in attributes...
i.e. Type of Document, Type of Article, Alternative Names...
It would also be great if those Attributes could have a Date/Date Range field to them...
Reason:
Many of these Attributes could be of importance for the research of something, but not in the scope of the Research itself... It could be information that was important in a historic perspective, to find documents where a Company, Country, Office has changed name in the time period where the research span.
Not all of that information are of the type that you put in the graph/project as a Node or Relation, but its important enough to add to the object/subject, and it will be much easier to find if it is in Attribute, than if it is only unstructured text in the comment/descrition field...
