Add dynamic fields into a Presentation instead of saved views

Most times when building a presentation, all you need is the information contained within a certain field. Whether that information is the background of the Initiative or several other custom fields (such as a problem statement, go-to-market strategy, etc). While these fields can indeed be displayed via a Saved View, the saved view can not be formatted for a formal presentation.

My idea is to add dynamic fields that would pull in the content of the selected field and update it in real-time. This will allow users to build truly formatted slides, and simply bring in the content of the fields they need. Attached is an example:

  We've added a live field shape to the Roadmaps section of the shapes menu in Aha! Whiteboards. Live fields update automatically when the record data changes. Double clicking on a live field opens the record card. Controls are included to toggle display of the field name or record ID. Live fields can be formatted just like regular text shapes, including color, size, and alignment.

  For more information, see updates to this support article, which will be updated later this week.
