How to get day of the week back?

I recently had to delete day of the week from my Windows short date format in order to get InfoQube to function properly (eg with sorting and copy-special).

I really miss the day of the week display on my Windows taskbar.

I tried various combinations of date formatting in Win 10 but was unable to find anything that didn't interfere with InfoQube.

Database size

What can be done to reduce file size (besides compacting)?  Do any of the following affect file sizes?

1) Putting text in grid vs in document pane

2) Splitting text into many items vs few (eg the same text split into 10 items vs 1)

3) The number of tags or tag assignments, hyperlinks etc?

I believe putting images in doc panes does not affect file size as long as you have the option checked to not store images in the database.

I'm guessing the above effects are minimal and it's the gross amount of data being stored, no matter how it's organized.

Outdent behavior

I'm guessing this has been discussed before, and I think it's a common question in the world of outliners, but I'm looking for a way to change the outdent behavior in IQ. Say I have a simple outline:

  • Item1
    • Subitem1
    • Subitem2
    • Subitem3
  • Item2

If I outdent (move left) Subitem2, I get:

  • Item1
    • Subitem1
    • Subitem3
  • Subitem2
  • Item2

But what I actually want when I outdent Subitem2 is to get:

  • Item1

Insert Space Bug

This has been present in the last few InfoQube releases. I can reproduce it on two computers, but I share a configuration between them, so it could be related to my particular options. While typing in the Document Pane, there is a momentary lag after typing the character 'I' (capital "eye") after which a space will not register. If I press the spacebar twice it will add the space.

Recommended workaround if there are others affected is to avoid writing in the first person.

Strange sorting behavior after splitting sub-items

Perhaps something has changed since the recent adjustments to splitting functionality? I am repeatedly seeing the manual sort order of items changing in totally unexpected ways after splitting sub-items. I will try to come up with an exact recipe to recreate this, but in the meantime I'm curious whether others have seen this and whether there is a potential explanation for why splitting sub-items would change the sort order.

Move Item After Editing (Still in Edit Mode..)?

Sorry for trivial question, but what is the simplest way to move an item right after editing it?

After I have edited an item, I am still in edit mode and the item cannot be moved. I therefore have to click elsewhere and then click back to select the item so that I can move it.

Is this the way to do it or is there some way to move the file right after I competed the editing?
