Field FileFullName error message

I am repeatedly getting this error message:

Field FileFullName is slow to computer (took 4280 mSec) which affects UI responsiveness.  Consider hiding it in the Properties pane.  (Manage fields>Options>Check both checkboxes for "Hide in xxx').

Both boxes are already checked.  What can I do to make this stop popping up?

Edit Context menus

I expected this has been asked before but I could not locate an answer.

Q. Is it possible (even on a limited basis) to edit the popup context menus. What I want to do is (possible) first hide some options and then rearrange the remaining to streamline my system.

Being able to have just my most used selections and in the order I use them on the menus would be absolutely outstanding. 

Any thoughts?

 

Auto-assign Question (changing item)

Submitted by viking on 2022/12/01 15:58

I want to change the item (item text) by adding a link if a URL is added to the URL field.

For example:
myItem => myItem (Link) where "Link" is a hyperlink.

This test rule, in the URL field, works:
AME: [item]="test <a href="[url]">(Link)</a>"

It changes the item:
myItem=> test (Link)

However, I want the item to remain, so I tried these:
AME: [item]="[item] <a href="[url]">(Link)</a>"
AME: [item]=[item] "<a href="[url]">(Link)</a>"

None of these works; the item is not changed.

Open a selected item in a new/scratch grid?

Hi Pierre,

Is there a way to select an item, and then open it in a new or scratch grid, so I can see it with all its parents and children, but without the grid source, filter and sort criteria of the grid where I found it?  In effect, a special kind of Hoist, because Hoist now keeps all the info from the source grid.  I tried using the omnibox search with its itemID but that didn't work.

 

Thanks!

Setting frame colors

How do I set a default frame color for calendar events which is different from the default fill color? (as e.g. in the event illustrated in the Calendar help topic labeled Meeting With Customer Planning, where the frame color is green, while the fill color is pink? - see also the different fill and frame colors in that same help topic for the events entitled: under Installation at the Customer's Facilities / first iteration coding).

Hyperlinks don't open in desired grid

How do I specify which grid a linked item opens in?

User manual says "When linking to a single item, you can specify the grid, such as 1280|Inbox"

I can't get this to work.  When I click on a link using the above format, I get a dialogue saying the hyperlink target contains two links, which do you want to use?

As a side note, shouldn't a linked item always open in its home grid unless another grid is specified?

Function Question

I have a text field (popup list of items) "Ingredients"
I create a simple Auto-assign rule for "Ingredients": AME: #onion

When I change the Ingredients field the onion Tag is properly checked.

I then change the Auto-assign rule for "Ingredients" to use a function: AME: SetIngredientsTags([Ingredients])

with the function in the VB editor:
Function SetIngredientsTags(Ingredients)
    SetIngredientsTags="#onion"
end function

Crashings

Hola Greetings from Asuncion Paraguay.

I have been using the outliner portable latest version for some time without major problems (some ocasional crash, but usually data were not lost). But recently it does really crash very often.

I am using it with Windows 8.1 and run it on administration mode.

So i decided to download and run the full version of the app because it is one year younger that the outliner version only. And started to run it as portable, not set into any Windows programs folder, and run it in the administration mode.

add a subitem to an item shown in Live-Search?

Suppose I want to assign multiple parents to a marked item.  Live-Search provides a very quick way to find destination parents.  Is there a way to add the marked item to an item in Live-Search?  Add as Sub-Item does not appear in the context menu for an item in Live-Search.  I guess I have to click the item in Live-Search, show it in the Search grid, and use Add as Sub-Item in the search grid?
