keyboard shortcut to make current item the topmost child of the (parent) item below it in the grid (e.g. Shift-Alt-Right)

When you want to make an item the topmost child of another using just the keyboard and you can't / don't want to use copy / paste, it's very tedious: move under target item, press Alt-Right, then Alt-Up many time until you reach the topmost position. How about instead: move just above target item (just below it would be fine, too) and press Shift-Alt-Right.

Child items shown as blank after expanding the tree view

Sometimes when a parent has a sizable number of children, IQ shows blank items for children further down the list when I click the expand icon for their parent. When I refresh the grid, the items appear correctly. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to reproduce this reliably, but maybe you can narrow it down?
 
See a before and after screenshot to prove I'm not imagining things (wouldn't be the first time):

Way to automatically activate file paths pasted into items

Submitted by LeftEccoForIQ on 2019/10/23 02:52
When I paste a hyperlink into an item and continue with a space character, the link is recognized by IQ and becomes clickable. I'd very much like a similar (semi-)automatic approach to file paths, without having to use the Ctrl-K dialog. I know there is an option to open the file with a double-click while editing but having to enter edit mode beforehand doesn't seem very convenient, especially if you want to use the link to that file repeatedly. EccoExt works this way out of the box, even without requiring a space character to be typed following the hyperlink.
 
If an item consists only of a hyperlink or file path without the user following up with a space plus further text (which is usual if you just quickly paste a URL / file path as a new item), my preference would also be to immediately turn those into active links for the sake of consistency but that could be an option, of course.

Two-way / mutually related items

I've just started messing around with related items:
the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+R (as mentioned in the manual) is not activated here (I have no custom shortcuts) -- I can add it manually, just wanted to report.
 
What would be really wonderful would be if I could select two (or more) items and (mutually) relate them to each other with one shortcut or action.
IIUC I currently have to relate Item#A to Item#B and then vice-versa.
