Edited Filelink loses link 'style' (minor)

Submitted by Tom on 2017/09/21 16:03
Minor formatting problem with edited file links (a bug imo, but there may be a logic to it (?))
 
Create a file-link item -- I use drag n drop file to IQ, use filename as text, e.g. Filename.ext
If I edit the item:
  1. adding text to item works as expected - link stays underlined blue, other text is normal (black)
  2. if I remove any of the text in the file link, (e.g. remove '.ext' in above example), it changes to 'normal' text i.e. blue and underlined format disappears, text becomes black

Shortcut to strip Back-Color (or open dialog)?

Submitted by Tom on 2017/09/21 07:32
I dont see any way of adding shortcut to Back-color for an item. It's one I use a lot...
 
menu: Item >Back-Color is not on offer in the Customise /Keyboard tab
I do see it in Commands tab (under All Commands), but still unable to add shortcut
 
Any chance of a shortcut (preferably customisable) that will either:
  1. strip the background colour from focused item, or,
  2. simply open the Back-Color dialogue

suggestion - edit script files

Submitted by puremoxie on 2017/09/15 15:37
Since you are already using the codejock syntax editor control, I think it would be great if that could be used to view/edit other types of script files in the HTML pane, such as PHP, CSS, JavaScript, Python, etc. I imagine setting the file extensions that open as plain text scripts in the editor would be the way to go.
 
This would be useful to me as a web developer because I could organize source code in a conceptual outline, include code items under task items, search for functions/snippets from within IQ, etc.

New file, new instance

New file, new instance:
 I see IQ now correctly opens a new instance when a new file is created :up:
 
But, if I open IQ without any file, and create a new file, a new instance of IQ is opened.
I end up with new file in one, the other empty.

Outline Export to Word, HTML, etc

Submitted by Pierre_Admin on 2017/09/15 01:04
Hi IQ Users,
 
A big missing piece right now is a smart export of outlines to Word and other documents types. This is what I've got so far. Comments ?
 
Given this outline:
  • Export to Word, HTML, OPML and Markdown
    • The task is to convert an outline to document (Word, OPML, Markdown). Bold is used to identify Headings, so this is text under the heading
    • A sub-item can be converted to either indented text or a bullet list. The question is how to tell it what it should be. Text length ?, A Y/N field ?, Some HTML content ?, 1. or - prefix ?
    • This should be a sub-heading because it is bold
      • If the parent is a heading, then this is regular text (unless it starts with 1.

Working with Icons

Icons can be used in many contexts within InfoQube:
  • Anywhere inside the item text. These will display in just about all InfoQube UIs (Grids, Properties pane, Calendar, Surface, TimeLine, Map View)
  • Anywhere in other text fields (Grids, Properties pane)
  • In Field names (Grids, Properties pane)
  • As part of Outline labels (Grids)
  • In Links (Surface)

1. What Icons are available

  • Icons are loaded from the \Icons folder when InfoQube starts
  • The default setup has 88 icons. There are quite a few free icon sets that can be downloaded. Do not hesitate to be create !
  • To add icons, add image files to that folder. Images must be 16x16 gif files (8-bit color depth or less)

Is calendar integration ever *really* going to happen :-)?

Submitted by David_H on 2017/09/13 15:40
Several months ago the Google sign on capability was released and worked, and it was indicated calendar integration was close and coming in the next release.  But since then it seems all development is on other areas again?  Areas where IQ is already so strong it's like icing on the cake.
 
It seems like there is no feature request that is more universal or critical to many of us than calendar integration.  For me at least, it's the single (and only serious) limiting factor as I use IQ every day.  Mobile use is a distant second, which is also part of what calendar integration is all about.  Otherwise it's already the most powerful organizer on the planet by a wide margin.  I really hope it happens, I've been waiting for 5 years :-), it seemed we were so close....:-)
 
 

Scrolling in cusomization dialogue

Submitted by Jon on 2017/09/13 10:50
1. Open the customization dialogue.
 
2. Go to the Commands tab.
 
3. Choose a category that has enough commands to require scrolling. For example, choose All Commands.
 
4. Dragging the scrollbar or clicking on the up/down icons of the scrollbar produces undesirable behavior (continuous scrolling). It is difficult to make a selection.
 
I am using 103 portable.
