I've been inputting a large number of tags, and have been getting "total" crashes, 7 yesterday and 2 today. The crashes are such such that IQ just disappears.

Each time it has happened when I enter a totally new tag, or two of them in succession.

 

In the tags pane area. I enter mynewtag1 then enter, enter (all three done very quickly). Occasionally this will crash IQ, but I haven't been able to make cause it on purpose.

The 2 occurrences today were both when typing 2 new tags in quick succession, and it "blew up" at the second one.

 

The only thing new in my setup is that I have the doc pane, tags pane, and properties pane attached together,on a second monitor. Main monitor has the grid and home page open.

 

 Hi Pierre,

  Is the "import" function still in IQ?  When I updated to the new file I can't find it anywhere.  Export is still there though.

 

Thanks, stay safe.

I'd like any unnecessary blank lines at the top of the item to be removed. For example, this often occurs when I split items. Maybe it could be limited to just that: removing whitespace from the beginning of items that were created as the result of a split. Thanks!

Just wondering if you were open to improving the size / quality of icons in IQ if your users vow to do the necessary artwork / conversion required? There seems to be a lot of pixelation going on with the current icon settings. Cheers

Minor suggestion.

 

Could we have more options for the expand/collapse buttons?

 

I have trouble clearly seeing which items have subitems.

 

The best option for visibility is the triangle.  I don't understand why the color changes from black to light gray when a header is collapsed.  This is counter-intuitive since it's more important to see it when the outline is collapsed than expanded (the latter condition is obvious!)  With gray rows, the light gray triangle is hard to see.

 

So it would be an improvement to just make the triangles stay black .

 

More options would be welcome.  I'm not sure what.  Maybe size (small/med/large) and color?

Hi IQ Users !

 

Quite often people have asked for a simpler version of InfoQube, centered around outlining

(not the more general task of information management)

 

As I was busy completing InfoQube’s feature set, it was always postponed

 

Now that IQ is closer to completion (with Google Calendar and Tasks working just fine), I got around to doing just that…

 

It will be named InfoQube Outliner, unless users come up with a better name ;-)

 

Exit are: Gantt and Timeline charts, 2-D Surface, Map view, Events and Calendars, User code, Pivot table and charts, Home pages, Google Sync, SQL Filters, EMail-merge, ODC links, Dialer, Remote-database sync

 

What remains are:

1- Outliner with columns

2- Card view -- 2-D desktop-like surface with items shown as 3x5 index c

I believe Pierre mentioned that there are known issues with copy-special>paste items and subitems.  If that is the case, and it is already on the list to be addressed, then that is fine and I'll just wait for a future fix.

 

 I've attached an example:

 

1) Select item with multiple subitems

2) Copy special>#6 (items and subitems)
3) Move to another grid>paste

4) New item is missing multiple lines of text from the original

 

Refreshing the grid and closiing/re-opening the file failed to recover the missing text.

 

I wanted to bring this up because of the possibility that it is related to my issue with text sometimes disappearing.

 

All the missing lines were bulleted lines inside a multi-line cell.  Does this type of formatting cause problems?

Why does InfoQube (or Windows) access external drives when it's not necessary?

 

I have a couple of extra hard drives mounted externally in a drive dock.  There are no active InfoQube files on these drives nor do I have any backups set to go to these drives.

 

Yet when I carry out various InfoQube actions, like turning off a hoist, one of these drives is being activated and it grinds and grinds like it's looking for something.  The InfoQube action is delayed while this is happening, so the whole thing slows down my InfoQube work.  Each time I have to wait while the drive comes out of resting mode and searches for some nonexistent something.

 

I do have some InfoQube files on the drives which I've manually moved there for extra backups.  But there is no way for InfoQube to "know" that the files are there and I never use them in InfoQube.

 

Any idea what

 Using 115.  I made a new TLI in my "Notes1" grid (source is Notes1 checkmark field).  Later I noticed that the Notes1 field had not been checked for that TLI; however, in the Properties Pane "Basic" section I see Home = Notes1.
