drag and drop move has different effect on TLIs vs. child items

Submitted by LeftEccoForIQ on 2019/07/03 17:33
Not sure if this is a bug report or rather a suggestion...
 
1. Dragging a TLI to a different grid will remove it from the original grid / position (removes the field value). To retain the original field value, I have to hold down CTRL during the drop (adds field value of second grid). This happens regardless of whether the item is dropped as a TLI or a child item in the target grid.
>> This is as I would expect.
 
2. Dragging a child item to be a TLI in a different grid can have two different effects:
A. If it was assigned to the field represented by the original grid, it will be 1. removed from its parent, and 2. lose the field value for the original grid.
>> I'm not quite sure this makes sense. Maybe it should then re-appear as a TLI in the original grid as well or the user should be prompted by a dialog?
 
B.

IQ >> Goggle calendar one-way sync

Hey. I managed to successfully get all my IQ appointments into Google Calendar using the (bottommost) "Full: ..." option on the Google Connect / Properties dialog. I then switched to the option just above that ("One way: IQ..."), entered a test item in IQ, but was unable to sync it to Google. Is that mode just not implemented yet? Thanks!

editing plain text files from IQ

It's useful to be able to view the contents of plain text files in the document pane.  I *think* the following is accurate - would appreciate corrections - 
 
If you use File > Import From > Text File(s), the path to the plain text file will be stored in the FilePath and FileName fields; the name of the file will be stored in the Item field.  A copy of the file contents will be stored in the ItemHTML field (for embedded storage), or the file referenced in the ItemHTMLFile field.  You can edit the original external plain text file in an external editor by double-clicking on the Item.   You can edit IQ's copy of the content in the document pane.  The resulting content of the copy will be HTML, not plain text.  In this case you've just got to be aware that you're working with two separate versions of the same content, and changing one will not change the other.
