Sometimes there is a need to select more than one value in a drop down list. Is there a way to do this that doesn't call for creating multiple properties?
For example, say I have a card that I call a defect and that defect also is related to 2 or more other cards. Since value for "more" is unknown, I'd like to be able to open the list and pick "A", "C", "D" and "Q" for example.
This question relates to a property where I supply the values for the list as well as property type of "Card."
Essentially, "Story" would be "As a User, I need to be able to associate two or more cards to a given Card to assist in impact analysis"

Thanks Len. I've added this to the Mingle backlog.
I've heard of a few workarounds for this behavior.
Some people have used cards numbers as tags. To see how many cards are associated with a particular card, you would use the "Add tags" portion of the filter. You can also See a list of the cards that are tagged with this card's card number with a table query that uses "TAGGED WITH" MQL feature.
Other people have used murmurs to associate cards. When you add a murmur as a comment on a card, any card numbers in the murmur will link the cards together. For example, if you open card #2 and murmur that, "this relies on card #1", then you will see that murmur on card #2 and card #1. This is less formal than the tagging approach, but has the advantage of allowing you to add context.
