a minor inconsistency (and a minor inconvenience)

this appears to be reproducible here (and has been this way for a while, maybe always?)

 

 

Version v0.9.97a is now available:

 

I use conditional formatting for all items in IQ.  I use a really simple color coding based on stoplights, green means keep going (it's done), yellow is an open item (slow down), and red are high priority/focus open items (stop).  Whenever I launch a grid there is always one item selected, which means I have to move off it to see the color of the item, because otherwise it's for the color of items that are selected.

 

Is there a way to change that behavior so an item is not selected until the user selects it?  Even ignoring my slightly obsessive coloring scheme, it seems to me that when a grid is launched (or switched back to), an item should not be selected unless the user does so.

 

Thanks!

 

 

wysiwyg editor - up/down key no longer saves edits and moves to next cell up/down

 

Up/down key still works in non-wysiwyg editor.

 

I am noticing this in 96e.

 

 

 

1. NO grids show up on the default home page in v96e, they are all gone.

 

2. In options I have "restore layout settings when opening files" unchecked, so IQ now launches without any open grids.  When I then try to launch a grid from my custom home page, which is how I do all grid launching, grids won't open.  I have to open the first grid from the View menu, only after I've done that, and have one grid open, can I launch grids from my custom home page.

 

3. Links to grids on my custom home pages now have to be clicked twice to launch them.

 

4. The buttons at the top that cycle between home pages also have to be clicked twice to work.

 

Thanks

Difficult one to search for here: may be an old / known situation.

 

I have two copies of one grid open -

I hoist each to a different item.

 

When I close and reopen IQ, the views have synced i.e. both grid views now show the same hoisted item.

 

Is this a limitation of the grid / IQ, or can it be made to remember the different hoists?

 

Today I noticed it was missing from my customized toolbar.  At first I assumed I'd accidentally deleted it, until I went to add it back and can't find it.  Unless the name for it has changed?

I am running the latest portable version 96e on both my laptop and desktop.  I had my database open on my laptop last night with no issues, closed IQ and after dropbox finished syncing, then shut the laptop down.  This morning when I tried to open the database on my desktop it would crash on open.  I've experienced this before and usually just revert to the last backup.  But so far I've gone through several backups and every single one crashes on open.  I'm about to go back to my laptop and see if I can open one from there.  Below is the message I get when it crashes.  Any suggestions?

Sometimes, panes  on autohide don't go away (they're docked at the left of my IQ window). Their blue background, specifically.

I need to restart IQ to fix the problem, or IQ eventually crashes.

 

I don't know how to reproduce that with a sample DB. At first I thought it had to do with some new parameter controlling the time docked panes take before hiding. Changing the value seemed to fix it, but the problem came back after installing 96c

 

Here's how it looks like (after clicking on a few tabs at the left (the tabs are shown in the 2nd screenshot):
