Is it ok to use dashed grid names (eg All-Links) or should I convert them to Camel Case (AllLinks).

Pierre made a post a number of years ago advising against spaces in grid names because it could cause problems like losing field assignments (which is what I'm currently experiencing).

Can dashes cause problems like spaces or is this a non-issue?

I'm using the dashes because I find the grid tabs easier to read that way.

My grid colors got messed up with the 120pre7 update. I recreated the Grid colors with alternating colors (item lines yellow/gray) but I can't recall if the Tag pane also had alternating colors (like the Properties pane)? It is currently solid yellow. Any way to change it?

I can't find anything about how to "register the IQ:// protocol"?
(I may need it to get the Alarm hyperlinks to work).
 

I have various apps that store data in XML or JSON format.  It also seems that XML or JSON files can be used as ODBC data sources.  Can the data from such files be brought into IQ through the "synchronization with remote databases" procedure described in http://infoqubeim.com/drupal5/node/140 ??  

Hello Pierre, everybody,

Is there a way to have scratch/search grids columns setup stick ? I have to reconfigure them constantly as they revert to some default each time they're reopened.

This is a newish behaviour it seems -- not sure when it started.

Thanks a lot!

Had another incident of multiple items suddenly disappearing from a grid while I was in the process of reorganizing.

I'm not worried about getting them back because I have backups.  But first I tried to recover them from within the file and ran into something I can't understand.

I found one of the items using Live Search.  It gave the grid assignment for the item, but when I go to that grid and apply a column filter, it's not found.

I'm trying to understand why it doesn't show up in its assigned grid.

Is the color and contrast of the scroll bar controlled by Windows 10 display settings (color scheme)?

I'd like more visual contrast between the slider and the scroll bar.  On long lists, the box gets so small I have a hard time finding it.

How can I keep my vertical grid tabs in order?  They move around on their own and I don't know why.  I don't see it happen; I just see that they're out of order again.  Shouldn't tabs maintain their positions unless dragged elsewhere?

120Pre4, Win10

Hello all.

I have been using Ecco Pro since 1995. I love it, but am growing increasingly concerned with its data limitations and orphan status, and I have had a few scares with data corruption over the years.

For those reasons, I would like to transition to InfoQube, a modern program that was inspired by Ecco.

IQ Ver 120PRE5

Everything works well. I have a column that auto inserts the date when I add an item. Just need a column to auto insert the time.

I tried setting up a new date column and changing the format to time but no luck.

Any help would be appreciated.
