Problems with grouped column headers

I think I mentioned that already but can't find it.
Pretty time consuming bugs when groups need to regularly be recreated, columns are lost, etc.
 
(Those problems can be verified in a sample DB, V83)
 
1- If a column is already grouped "under" some other column, and it is readded (by mistake) by drag-drop from the properties pane : all grouped columns are disrupted.  No known workaround.
 
2- If a column is removed (not hidden) at the *left* of other grouped columns, those groups are disrupted. Steps in AdrssBook grid:
   - group priority, duedate, todoseffortInHours
   - group done and notes
   - Expand groups
    - Close the grid and reopen it
    - Right click on Todos to remove it
    - Both groups now include other columns.

Conditional Formatting Reference

1. Valid criteria

The following are valid expressions that can be used in the "Criteria" column of the conditional formats. %1, %2, etc are placeholders representing fields.
In IQ you would replace %1 by [Notes] for example
 

The supported conversion unary operators are:

  • type (unary operator) retrieves the type of the object. For instance type(%1) = 8 specifies the cells ( on the column 1 ) that contains string values. 

    Here's few predefined types:

Properties Pane lists collapsing on their own

This is a problem that was fixed previously but is back again.  When you finish editing a forms list, InfoQube collapses the window and you have to re-open it.  I'm pretty sure there are other cases where property pane windows collapse on their own because I find myself repeatedly having to re-open various lists in the properties pane.
 
Edit: Also, whenever you change item selection in a grid, the properties pane automatically scrolls to the top.  I use forms to assign fields but every time I change items I have to manually scroll the properties pane so I can see all my fields.  The property pane shouldn't change position or status unless manually adjusted by the user.
