As I understand the manual, the way to assign an item to another parent is by holding down Ctrl and left mouse button while dragging the item to the other parent. When I attempt to do so, nothing happens. It doesn't look like the item is dragging, and no new item appears under the other parent. Nothing changes (or so it seems).

 

Am I doing something wrong? Is there any other way to assign another parent to an item?

1) I used the popup editor to insert an icon.

 

2) Afterwards, I could no longer select a cell and change the formatting (text color, fill).  Nor could I select sections of text and change the formatting.

 

3) I presumed there was some new editing state activated but if there is I can't figure out how to turn it off after reading the help file and trying various things.  Finally had to reboot the file.

 

Tried it again with the same result.  Could someone help me understand what's going on?

Either clip something from web, or open the new item dialogue and add some content.

Leaving the dialogue open, press Win+N.

The content is stripped out of the URL field and the HTML pane -- but oddly not from the item text field.

 

I dont know whether this a bug or by design:

 

(Without thinking about it in advance) I expected a second new item dialogue to open -- I realise this may not be possible, but found the stripping of content (with no apparent way of recovering it) a bit harsh.

What do you think?

I believe this is the third thread I've posted on this.  It got fixed once but quickly returned and hasn't been fixed for many months.

 

Whenever you finish editing forms, it collapses the view.  I think it closes under circumstances, too but I can't specify them (I know that's not much help).   I use a form for assigning fields and it's annoying to have to keep re-opening it.

 

If anyone knows of a fix, please share it.

No idea what's going on here -- I can find a file and get it to show in correct grid (via search), but as soon as I remove the hoist it disappears.

at least half user error:

the 'Files' item had a space before the text in the 'Project' field (not sure why it was shown as being in the relevant grid at all - it must have been in there 'properly' at some stage -- Pierre, feel free to delete this thread if you want)

 

I search for the item 'Files' because I cant find it in the 'Magheracar' grid where it's supposed to be.

I find the item via search, and click on the link to the 'Magheracar' grid --

 

Description:

 

1) Copy list from source

2) Paste list in InfoQube, creating a new item for each list item (ctrl-v; "2")

 

Problem:

 

Each time a list is pasted, InfoQube scrolls to the top of the page.  Not a huge problem, obviously, but annoying when you're doing many lists as you have scroll back down several pages after each paste

 

Suggested Solution:

 

InfoQube should maintain the current view when a list is pasted.  View could center on the first or last item of the pasted list, or anywhere in that vicinity (just don't scroll to the top of the page each time).

It's a small thing but please put it on the right - which to my knowledge is a near universal standard.  Or is there a setting for it in options and I missed it?

 

Thanks

I opened the standard file I use for templates and found that many of the toolbar icons were missing.  I don't understand how that happened.  I thought I understood toolbar settings are determined by the last file closed.  If I have all files set up with the same toolbar layouts and don't make any changes, then all files (including new ones) should keep that layout.

 

I don't know why it lost the toolbar layout but since it was just one file, I decided to re-create the layout manually.  I pulled up the "all commands" list and found that the tool icons have apparently been changed.

 

1) There's no longer an icon for "save file" (only "save as").  If I drag the "save" tool to my header it inserts a labeled icon ("Save") which takes up too much space.

 

2) There's no longer a command to re-number items.

I am back after many years using Ecco ready to give infoqube another try. Today I went to the YouTube channel and saw the video on "homepage" 

 

I think it is a great idea to use YouTube to give an introduction to the way the program is used. However I was totally unable to grasp the purpose of showing how to use the homepage. 

 

 I understand what a two pane outliner is, and I understand what a single pane outliner is, and I think both of those formats have obvious uses to a lot of people.

Now that IQ is looking really great, as well as being really great :-)  I want to write about the theme colour.

(Just in case: in the past there were multiple themes -- I believe there's only one now?)

 

I do like the blue-orange theme, but there's a problem with it:

it clashes badly with almost all the default item highlight colours.
