I wish. This forum used to have an "ideas" section where everyone could post and vote on these out in the public but that feature go lost in the update to the forums software. We just track this internally in our backlog of possible features.

Thanks for the feedback and thanks for using Reflow!

Thanks, Chris! Is there a feature list where one could vote on potential features like this? That could help the Dev team pick and prioritize features for upcoming releases. Obviously not only for Reflow, but for all the software Adobe has to offer.

Thanks for the feedback. This is specifically to show content that would normally get repeated by a CMS like repeating entries in a blog list or RSS feed? People have also been asking for a component library but this doesn't sound exactly like that. Maybe they could be made into the same solution but I'm not sure about that.

We'll keep this in consideration as we look at other feature to work on. Thanks for your suggestion and thanks for using Reflow!

When designing for tabular data display, it would be very helpful if there was a way to tell an element to repeat a specified amount of times. Then, all elements would be affected when modifying styles. The repeated elements need not be part of the physical HTML structure, exported HTML, or even display in the tree. In essence they are only there for the layout designer. I suppose there could be an option to expand the repeated element for those that want to break the link and have more granular control over each sibling.

This would help the workflow in a way that the designer wouldn't have to give the developer more HTML than they need to.

What do you think Adobe Forum? Sound useful to you?
