Intermittent Firefox web clipping crashes

Submitted by KeithB on 2009/03/26 13:04
I found when doing a large number of firefox web clippings (with the IQ web clipping extension) that IQ would occasionally crash right after a web clipping, perhaps an average of maybe every 40 or 50 clips or so.
 
I never could find a pattern of what might be causing it.
 
I was capturing partial web pages, not whole pages the entire time, then deleting superfluous graphics. I thought maybe the delete the graphics caused it, but it happened to clips not containing graphics also.
 
Maybe the average (sane) IQ user would never experience this, but it would be nice to have it totally robust for the occasional large volume web-clipping project.
 
 
 

link to up entire grid

Submitted by jan_rifkinson on 2009/03/25 08:41
Situation
 
In grid # I enter a note
Within that note, I select text to create an internal hyperlink
I find & select the target
the target is a parent w children that require all columns to make sense
however IQ now links to parent, children are present but not columns of data that go with them, making this link useless
 
Is there a setting I'm missing?
 
TIA

hierarchy - context v full

Submitted by jan_rifkinson on 2009/03/25 08:20
Although I understand the difference between context & full hierarchy, I don't currently see its practical use in a grid.
 
For example, I would assume that if I checked option for FH, I would see CP + parent / grandparent, etc --  not so. At least not here.
CP ok
 
Don't know when I should use one v the other. Don't know the advantage of using one v other.
 
TIA

<CTRL>+S

Submitted by jan_rifkinson on 2009/03/24 08:01
Pierre, If there is consensus, would you mind terribly changing
 
strikethough to some key combo to go along w <CTRL>+S, i..e <CTRL><SHFT>
and
institute a forced save with <CTRL>S
 
<CTRL>S is such a standard for saving that I, for one, find myself striking thru a lot trying to institute a save even tho I know IQ saves when I switch focus.
 
Thanks for your consideration.

multiple item selection

Submitted by jan_rifkinson on 2009/03/23 13:05
In grid, I want to select 5 items that are have no proximity, i.e. are not next to each other.
Were they next to each other I would use <SHFT>+down (or up) to select
 
But I cannot find the key combo to select multiple items that are not next to each other
Ordinarily I would use <CTRL>+click to make this kind of multiple selection but that doesn't seem to work in IQ.... at least, not for me.
 
Is there a key combo for this function that I'm missing?
 
Thank you.

Alternatives to drop-down field for multiple characteristics

Submitted by Tom on 2009/03/22 11:58
working today (taking time off later in week though!)
Also I'm sure this has been discussed before but I really didnt know what to search for.
 
I want to add various characteristics of items to a new field - I cant add more than one thing from a drop-down list to a field so I'm not sure "how-to"
It doesnt suit having a field for each characteristic (too many probably eventually)
 
I think the answer would probably be a simple text field
So say I use colours as an example -
 
Item #1  [blue green]
Item #2  [blue orange]
Item #3  [red green]
 
and then I can filter for blue in that field
I'll miss being able to sort but it's about time I learned how to filter properly!
 
or would this be a suitable oppurtunity to start using Wikitags?
