I would like to be able to create the equivalent of forms in Curio. A form to me is an Idea Space where specific graphics that allow text entry (eg, notecards, lists ....) are locked in their (x,y) position on the Idea Space yet still allow one to type in to them. I'd like this Fix or Hold or Glue or ... mode accessible as a context menu and shortcut key. I would also like a set of checkboxes (with lock icons) on the Geometry settings to lock x, y, width, and height all separately as desired.

This would IMO tremendously expand the utility of creating templates from various Idea Spaces. It may also be this idea could be expanded to allow users to fix figures or mind maps or ... other graphics in place on the page yet still retain the ability to type in to their text fields.

ps -- I also see that, once a graphic is locked, one cannot change its meta content. Marking a graphic as fixed (or held or ...) should ONLY lock its coordinates on the Idea Space, not anything else.

This, ultimately, is what I think dossiers should look like.
