Yeah, it’s definitely cryptic. I use the kanban to manage individual projects, so I’m continuously moving cards around. Each group is a status level. Most projects start out in the ‘Working On’ group and then move along from there. Then within each group are individual projects. Cards move from group to group as the status changes and sometimes I reorganize cards in the same group depending on priority. I have to wonder if there is a point where there is a max value for the Save Order and I happen to bump into that sometimes. Wish I understood how it was designed to work, or if it used values that made more sense. One advantage is that the Save Order structure allows me to calculate and apply a number to each card (#1, #2, #3, etc.). When I move the cards around the Save Order value is in alphanumeric order, so sorting of cards applies correctly and the numbers update accordingly. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/2/f/2f7ba13c2e62353614b954716b6ae418869f6380.jpeg) > [@Ranked Voting, Kanban?

Let user pick 5 items from a list of many, then let user order them from 1 to 5. Most preferred, to least preferred. I will assign a weighting based on that order. But I’m struggling to achieve this order in the editor to then assign a weighting for calculation. KanBan seems the easiest way on the user side to drag/reorder. But it gives those weird alpha-numeric codes in the editor. If I could convert the codes to simple numbers, it would help.
