1) Item is assigned to the grid source field.  Display mode is set to outline.

2) Item is also assigned as a subitem in the same grid.

3) Item displays correctly in its subitem position but will not display at the top level of the outline.

Could someone explain this? 

I reread the Display Mode section of the manual and did not see an explanation.

I want to add a child Tag in the Tag Pane, but w/o selecting an item in a Grid.
In this case the Tag list in the Pane is grayed out, and it is difficult to know which Tag I have selected.

I can still create a child, it is just difficult to know where it will be created since there in no feedback of which Tag is currently selected.

When moving around in a large outline it would be useful to have a way to step back to the previous position. Is there a way to do that?

...or maybe there is a history command that keeps a record of where the cursor has been.  That would be very helpful.

Thank you as always.

I group by the Tag "Type_B" in Grid2, but the Tag children are not always displayed next to "Type_B" as shown below. I need to refresh the grid to see the children.

I have worked the whole day with Tags on my database and have managed to mess it up :-(. I think that I may need to go back to an old backup (I assume that I would just rename SNBKM to SNDB?)

Part of it the corruption may be because of my incomplete understanding. Please answer my questions, even if they are Trivial and explained in the manual..
Consider this simple example of Tag hierarchy
MainGrid
    LastGrid
    StatusGrid
             DoNow
             Done    

By Default, new items are added to the Inbox Grid (with Source = Inbox field) when the "New Item to IQBase" window is used.

If I look at the Inbox field in the window, it is not automatically checked. However, after clicking on OK, the field is automatically checked and the new item is therefore shown in the Inbox Grid.

Now, I wanted to use an "Inbox" Tag instead of the  "Inbox" field as a source for the "Inbox Grid", but that doesn't work. After clicking on OK, the  "Inbox" Tag is not checked and the item therefore doesn't show in the Grid.

I made the new item window as wide as I could, but the Tag pane cannot be expanded enough. It is too narrow to see the child Tags. Maybe a bug?

I copied several items which have children including some URLs from Ecco.
For example:

Item ABC
       www.google.com
       SomeChild1

Item DEF
       www.yahoo.com
       SomeChild2

I pasted-special the items to IQ as Tab-indented.

I have backed up my viking.SNDB using:
1. Manual backup, which creates a file viking.SNBKM. (This file is overwritten each time I create a manual backup)
and
2. Auto backup, which creates incrementally dates files like viking.20220724-1432.SNBKA.

A viking.ini file is also created in the backup folder.

How do I restore my backed up file? Do I simply rename the extension to SNDB?
What do I do with the viking.ini file?

p.s. I searched the help file for a book page with the word "restore" but I didn't find anything relevant.

Suddenly (after moving Tag locations in the Tag Pane), I am no longer able to add a Tag by using the Tag Column. All the values are grayed out. I can still add the Tags by checking them in the Tag Pane.
