question about syncing one google team shared file

Submitted by seanlu21 on 2018/12/20 10:30
 We have moved all our company's files from Dropbox shared folder into G Suite team folder.
 
Now we have an "Google File Stream" tools installed in each User's PC, it works similarly as desktop Dropbox , syned ( stream , so do not consume PC's hard drive said so ) with your google file included Team Folder's file.
 
so My question is :
Can we ,  multi users who can work on one single IQ file basis following arrangement ?

I would like to say a BIG thank you to Pierre (and to everyone else for making this forum such a lively and interesting place).
 
But especially for Pierre who has been working very hard over the past year and has made some phenomenal progress.
 
I have more questions and suggestions but I will be not be posting them until the new year in order to give Pierre a break over Christmas.  He deserves it!
 
Many thanks Pierre and have a Happy Christmas !
 
   
 

XML paste + move buglet

Submitted by LeftEccoForIQ on 2018/12/19 06:12
Not a big deal, but here it is...
 
Steps to reproduce:
 
1. for any item, do 'copy special', option 5 or 6
2. select an item in the outline on a lower level, e.g. select a child of a top level item
3. paste here with option 1 (as NEW item)
4. item appears as the bottommost child of the parent
5. select pasted item and move it to the left (i.e. up one level in the hierarchy)
6. observe: the item is moved up one level, but appears below the next item further down the grid rather than below its parent item where it should go
 

Scrolling issues (up vs. down in grids and exits edit mode)

Submitted by LeftEccoForIQ on 2018/12/18 19:06
1. I can not find any way to scroll up or down the grid while editing the text of a grid item without abandoning the current cursor position in the editor. If I use the mouse wheel or scroll bar, edit mode is cancelled entirely and I have to re-enter edit mode with the cursor re-appearing at the very beginning of the item text. On the other hand, if I use the cursor keys to move to the top or bottom of the text of the item I'm currently editing to get IQ to scroll there, I obviously have to manually move the cursor back to the position I was going to edit before scrolling. Also, Ctrl-Up and Ctrl-Down do not work here as they have different functions in edit mode. Most users may not notice this annoyance much, but I use large font sizes (see below) so it is often necessary to scroll while editing to see the preceding / following text inside the item.
 
The other aspect requires a bit of a rant, sorry:

Document Panes LOCKED to a specific Item should Remember and attempt to Restore that connection.

Submitted by DragonGem on 2018/12/18 10:02
 I tend to have a several documents under revision at the same time; basically documenting thoughts and ideas as they occur to me. To facilitate this, I LOCK a Document Pane to each of those Items and Dock those Panes together so I can quickly switch Documents by clicking on their Tabs. Unfortunately, closing the database loses those Connections and they must be manually re-established each time. It would be convenient and consistent if IQ would store and restore those connections.

DOCUMENT PANE : No way to DETACH an individual Document from its embedded position.

Submitted by DragonGem on 2018/12/18 08:31

More of an oversight or inconsistency than an outright bug. However, attempting to overcome the problem can LOCKUP IQ completely.

With embedded Grids there are Right-Click menu options on their Tabs that allow the user to DETACH the Grid from its embedded position. Right-clicking on embedded Document Tabs produces no such context menu. 

Now for the real problem. Attempting to DRAG an embedded Document Tab to "free" it causes IQ to go into a Refresh loop that can only be broken by terminating via the Task Manager. Not sure what can be done about the Drag issue but having a Detach option for Document Panes would be nice.

DOCUMENT PANE : Cut & Paste of COLLAPSED Heading fails when it is the LAST Heading in the Document

Submitted by DragonGem on 2018/12/18 07:31
Using Cut & Paste on Collapsed Headers to re-organize a Document works great EXCEPT when the Collapsed Header being Cut is the LAST Header in the Document. Then the only thing that gets Pasted is the Text of the Header. Not really a common problem but it can cause you to lose a substantial portion of your Document.
 
Work-around is simple; temporarily place a Level 1 Header at the END of any Document that you are editing heavily.

Lock item and global hotkeys bugs

Submitted by LeftEccoForIQ on 2018/12/18 03:28
- Lock item doesn't currently seem to do anything (nothing changes in the properties pane and the item can simply be deleted after creating a new item and choosing 'lock' from the 'item' menu)
 
- IQ tries to register global hotkeys from Options|Other even when they are set to "" (I can tell as OK'ing the options dialog always produces an error message due to an inability to register those hotkeys on my system)
 
Cheers!
