Pierre, in your free time, would it be possible to create Chrome extensions; it's a pretty good browser, in some ways better than FF & will probably become more popular as time goes on. Thanks

I've found a technique that should work to build a help index for the Jibz' chm manual.

The technique is mentioned in dump2chm.pl /compilation request, and will be able to show like the figure below (I loaded html code in 4 of the online manual pages)

 

I'm using -- link to nonexistent node ID 1684 -- to try to keep track of things. It would be great if people could load this up with appropriate index terms and/or pages to get the index terms should reference.

 

I've been clicking "source" in this editor, then putting the html code required at the bottom of the online pages. Then when Jibz makes a new chm manual, any pages marked in the online manual with the appropriate html code and index terms, will show at the top of the chm index as shown.

This is provided in the hope it will be useful, of course. I realize this is far too simplistic for many users of this forum, but will perhaps be of use to those with a level of expertise own, that is to say, closer to zero. I imagine what I've done is already part and parcel of some of the material already available on this site.

 

My goal was this:

1) Creating an item should start tracking without further ado.

2) Creating a subitem should also start tracking, without stopping the tracking of the parent.

 

Remaining to do:

1) Lots, including:

2) Make it a little easier to input the end time for a task.

3) Ideally (for me, anyway) creating a new TLI should update the previous TLI and calculate its time.That may be a hard row to hoe and still keep subitem functionality.

4) Should add a Billable yes/No field.

 Hi Jibz,

Would you mind on the next chm run, to "include keywords from html files"?

Here's what it looks like in the compiler; you may know how to make a directive for the perl script instead.

 

You'll notice on section 5 of the manual, I copied the html shown below, at the bottom of the online manual test pages. Then when I compiled myself, it gave the 1Find and 1Search entries at the top of the index page, and kept the index.hhk entries you set up (please keep those there, as they will help figure out appropriate index terms.

This should be a way forward on an index file.

Right now it's only available in the properties pane context menu when right clicking in the Tagged items section. It's useful in the properties pane, but I think it would also be very convenient if the user could have access to the feature directly from the grid.

 

Opinions ?

 I have been unable to do this by using new html or new mht & I have tried & tried & tried <sigh>

Hi Pierre,

 

Is it okay to make an  "under the hood" reference page for the manual?

 

It would just list the components, and websites, and what they do in general,  and maybe some very general info on the vb "glue", the stuff  found in old posts.

 

 

 

Hi,

Why does the Date Filter from within Calendar keep defaulting to March 29 each time I open IQ, depsite the fact I always (have to) set it to the current date each time I open IQ ?

thanks, Doug Bartlett

I made some edits to 1. Items.

If you have any ideas, improvements, etc, please edit the page itself, or post suggestion here, thanks!

 

 I found out another outliner, Infohesive is now free. I mention it, because it seems to have extensive import and export capability, and might stimulate/illustrate some ideas /coming attractions for infoqube.

I experimented and imported Jibz' chm file it, then produced a pdf from that, that was kind of neat. (it "choked" on a few pages, with an invalid picture file format, but they were able to be bypassed.
