Is there a way to expand cards to show their description?

[Dean Gibson]

I use Trello for my University projects and I wanted to know if it was possible to expand cards to show their description.

It would be useful for me if I could see the description without clicking on each card. I often take screenshots of my boards to include in my coursework and having the description displayed would allow me to better show the progression of the board over time.

Hi Dean!

There is not currently a way to expand the description without opening up the card back.

I'd be glad to let our team know about your interest in this change though!

[Bang Xiang Yong]

I'm looking for this expand function as well, so that I can view all of the descriptions at once..

Just looking at the header of the card doesn't give me enough information.

[Steuben Press]

Please implement this feature! The title doesn't show enough information at a glance.

[AnLe90]

Yeah i second that. Also this  was asked in september 2018, did this ever get addressed?

[Manel Orovio]

Please implement this option. Without it, I will not use Trello. Otherwise, it is fantastic.

[Mihael Kukec]

Agree! This would be great to have! So that you are able to see immediately content and not to have to open it.

[Connor Fowler]

My organisation's users would also benefit greatly from this feature. Adding a request to the list in hopes that the priority is increased internally at Atlassian.

Still waiting for this sadly

Still waiting too.

[Jesse Fuller]

100% agreed. Sometimes the title isn't enough or you need to compare the descriptions of two cards. A simple plus icon or a little expand carrot somewhere would be great.

[Andrew Buensalida]

I second the motion

This seems like a huge win for very little effort, please do find a way to implement this  much-needed feature!
