Idea - Comments and Activate/Deactivate on Aggregates (Filters, Joins)

Comments and Activate/Deactivate on Aggregates (Filters, Joins)

On our Radar

Aggregates & Queries

I would like to:
.Comment on a Filter - basically explaining why that filter and possibly add a Reminder to appear on TrueChange as "Needs Review"
.Comment on a Join - to achieve the same as above - give context on a particular join.

Together with that, as complement, it would be great if we could tick a box to deactivate a Filter or a Join - not deleting it, which is the only option now - so we can test without losing it completely.

Allow commenting within aggregate filters, making future code maintenance easier.

Merged this idea with 'Having comment option for filters when viewing data or for Aggregate' (created on 10 Nov 2023 02:44:02 by Nghia Hoang)

To have an option to quickly active/inactive the Filter condition when viewing data.
Of course, for now we can achieve the same purpose by open the filter expression and comment out by using // or /**/, but if have a check box to toggle the whole expression is more convenient. For example we can put it at the end of expression line, after the delete button:
