importing from xml-type data files

Submitted by jimspoon on 2020/12/08 17:44
I have a number of programs that store data in hierarchical XML or JSON type formats, and I'm wondering whether it would be possible to import this data into IQ, perhaps with user assignment of the XML elements to IQ fields.
 
For example, I have a bookmark program called Linkman.  It is very good but no longer actively developed.  I often think how I could do more with the data in IQ than I can in Linkman.  I can get the data into IQ but it's much more difficult than it should be.  The export to CSV or TSV is not easy and that does not preserve the hierarchy of the data either.  I examined the Linkman data file.  It is XML type even if it is not exactly completely XML compliant (there is no root element, for example).  But it is easy to see how the hierarchy of folders and bookmarks is achieved.  
 
Here's a typical folder element:
 
<node type=folder&gt

Calendar freezing

Submitted by LM77 on 2020/11/30 01:30
 Frequently when adding/changing events in the Calendar, IQ freezes for a while, although in all such cases the freezing eventually stops, and I am able to return to working in IQ without shutting down the program and restarting.
 
I do not encounter this problem with any other tab/view/grid/pane in IQ.
 
I have not been able to determine if this happens when performing any particular type of action - it doesn't always happen when working with the Calendar - although it does always happen when I have the calendar taking up half of the screen and another IQ pane, the other half.
 
Thanks!

Possible to set IQ to insert clipped items below the selected item, respecting the hierarchy?

Possible to set IQ to insert clipped items below the selected item, respecting the hierarchy?
 
Hi,
 
I'd appreciate your help.
 
When using "Clip to item" (Option 1.6.23), by default the item is added as the first entry on the grid (top level).
Is it possible to set IQ in order the clipped item is inserted below the selected item, respecting the hierarchy?
For instance:
 
Item 1 
   Item 1.1
   Item 1.2 (selected on the grid before trigger the "Clip to item" command
   Item clipped inserted here <=
Item 2
Item 3
 
Thank you,
Carlos

Extend same filter-search box implemented in Options to other IQ dialogs

Submitted by carloscadu on 2020/11/27 10:14
 

 Hi,

 

The search box for filtering - recently implemented in the Options dialog - was a nice improvement in terms of functionality and interface.

 

I'd suggest to extend and implement this functionality to other IQ dialogs. For instance, below there is an image prototyping the filter over the "Add Columns" dialog.  

Pasting multiline text is unpredictable / unreliable

I think I posted about this before but can't find the post now.
 
When pasting this:
 
#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

NoP = %0%
If (NoP > 0) {
    Loop, %NoP% {
        Par := %A_Index%
        String := String . Par . ", "
    }
    StringTrimRight, String, String, 2
    FileAppend, %String%`nRun`, CmdLine.ahk`nExitApp, Tmp.ahk
    Run Tmp.ahk
} Else
    FileDelete, Tmp.ahk
Return

'Paste into selected cell' bug in v116i?

Had this on the clipboard:
 
Warning!
Do not forget to correctly specify the layout file name, if you change it!
 
Pasting it into the grid resulted in everything after the first exclamation mark being cut off. The same happens with:
 
How to edit the built-in layout

1. Decompile the built-in layout files (Main menu—Decompile, but first, do not forget to enable this item display in Settings)
2. The mnt\sdcard\JbakKeyboard\keyboards\res folder will be created. It will contain all the built-in layouts in the form of XML files.
For more detailed information about how different layouts are labelled, read in jbak2layout.
3. Find and copy the required file to the mnt\sdcard\JbakK2eyboard\keyboards folder.
4. Apply changes to the XML file.

Possible to export to HTML including Doc Pane content in MHT format?

Submitted by carloscadu on 2020/11/15 20:01
 Hi,
 
As shown in the screen-recording (https://bit.ly/3f46t9k), I'm trying to export to HTML (File > Export to) some IQ items that have different Doc Pane formats:
- Default Doc Pane
- MHT
- HTM
 
In the exported HTML, only the default Doc Pane content was included, and the MHT content don't appear.
Is it possible to export to HTML including Doc Pane content in MHT as well?
 
Thank you,
Carlos
