Changing item background color

How do I change this default to color all the item columns in a grid?  In options, I would do this by leaving the setting blank.  But when you do that in Manage Fields, it uses the file default, which isn't what I want.
 
I tried various ways to say "All" but don't know what I'm doing.  Is there a way to do it other than listing all the fields in the grid?

Splitting Documents at Headers

Submitted by DragonGem on 2018/10/25 11:39

 Hey Pierre... Now that you've been bestowed Hero Status, how about moving up to DemiGod?

I've been dissecting Paul's excellent Comparison of Note-Taking article by capturing it from WordPress, pasting as Text and assigning Headers 1 thru 4 to mark the various Sections. What I want is to see the whole article BUT with ONLY the IQ-specific sections. This requires a whole lot of Cutting & Pasting to create a hierarchical Grid with each Section in its own Item. Some quick Tagging, Filtering and Exporting and I can get what I want plus the individual Sections can be searched and referenced individually.

Favourites List

At the moment the Favourites list is just a flat list which can get quite long.
 
It would be nice if users could put a named folder into the list.
 
So the favourites list would become a list of favourites and folders, each folder could contain favourites and folders which could contain favourites and folders′.
 
In effect this would take it from a flat list to a tree, which would be more useful.
 

Tags

InfoQube has a sophisticated tagging system:
  • Items can have any number of tags
  • Tags can easily be added / deleted, in bulk if necessary
  • Tags are assigned to items by their Tag ID (auto-generated number). This means Tag name can be changed with no impact
  • Tags can be formatted (bold, italic, back color, text color) and can include icons. This, to easily identify important tags
  • Tags can be hidden from the tags list (to archive tags without losing the item tags)
  • Tag can be arranged in hierarchy
  • Hierarchy is used to provide tag Inheritance (parent tag automatically inherits child tags)
  • Tags can be under multiple parent tags (i.e.

Import of Text files

Submitted by Paul_J_Miller on 2018/10/14 07:13
I have a number of text files on disk which I want to import into InfoQube.
 
I would like them to have the plain text content of the file imported into the document pane and the item title set to the file name (preferably without the file extension).
 
I have tried drag and drop but this creates a link to the file on disk which is not what I want.
 
The text import seems to think they should be .CSV files.  They are not, they are just plain text.
 
There are a lot of files so copying and pasting the contents of each file is not an option.
 
What is the simplest way to do this?
 

[Sorted] New items not showing in Tags grid

Submitted by Tom on 2018/10/13 17:34
This is sorted in the Pre 6 update.
 
In new file with content:
open Tags grid
double-click to create new items -- none show in the grid -- the grid tab shows that there are multiple items, but none are visible.
 
Additional:
if I then AltTab away from IQ and back again, IQ stops responding and has to be killed in the Task manager.
