Practical and visual improvements to the Actions tab

Feature requests

Hi,

I have a few ideas that I think would improve the experience of working in the Actions section:

  1. Action grouping
    It would be great if actions could be organized in folders or a collapsible structure, similar to how views and containers are grouped in the UI section. As apps grow, the action list becomes long and hard to navigate, even with consistent naming.

  2. Custom action icons
    It’d be nice to choose icons for actions in addition to the automatic assignment. The ability to choose icons would make it easier to order the actions and would work as a nice complement to consistent naming.

  3. Hotkeys for disabling/commenting nodes
    When writing code, shortcuts like Ctrl + ' make it easy to comment things out. I really miss that when working with action nodes. Additionally, a shortcut to edit/add comments would improve the experience of explaining the different steps of the actions.

  4. Split view
    It would be very helpful to open and view two actions at once without needing a second browser tab or window.

Hello, and thank you for the great suggestions!

They will be passed on to our Product team to see how and if it makes sense to implement them in Create. We will update this topic once we know more about the timeline for these features.
