Show card description icon always if description is present

[user8446]

This issue respects the following points:

• I have read the FAQ
• I have searched for existing issues
• The issue affects the Deck Android app, neither the Deck server app nor the Nextcloud Android app.

Describe the bug

If a card has a description, there is a description icon on the card to indicate this. This is shown in the browser, but not in the app.

However, if there is also an attachment on the card both the description icon and the attachment icon will then both show.

Browser view:

Mobile app view:

Expected behavior

Description icon appears in the mobile app like with the browser view.

Yeah, this has been implemented different to the Deck server app by intention. The idea was to use one-line-cards if possible to save some vertical space.

Compared to attachments, comments and tasks the pure presence of any description content seemed to be not important enough to justify the additional vertical space.

However, consistency with the Deck server app is a goal for us, so I am ready to rethink the decision. Especially given the Deck server app display the due date / done date always in a separate line, we should think about doing the same.

Thank you, I agree with the consistency. There is also the compact mode toggle in the app settings so the user can still switch to the smaller cards if desired.
