Hi IQ Users !

The highlight of v1.125 through v1.127 was achieving Obsidian 2-way Sync. 

With this completed, we'll improve the Calendar with a much needed List view: A grid-like view of events with support for search and filter.

We'll keep you posted as this progresses and when a pre-release version is made available to contributors

HI,

$connection = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection $connectionString

Font colors in dark mode when using background colors

Submitted by LM77 on 2025/06/29 02:16

When I use dark mode and change the background color (say, to red), the default font color (=Text Fore Color) changes from dark ("None") to white, rendering the resulting text extremely difficult to read (see Screenshot 1, attached).

I have found a workaround, by manually changing the Text Fore Color to Olive Green under such circumstances (see the last item in the grid in Screenshot 2, attached), but this is a bit cumbersome.

Is there any way to ensure by default that the Text Fore Color comes out readable when using dark mode and changing the background color?

Sorting anomaly (I think)

I select several items in a column. 
I right click to get the context menu and select sort (ascending or descending) Works fine

However 
If I try the same sort with the menu .COLUMN - SORT - ASCENDING  (or DESCENDING)  Nothing happens. No effect
I'd like to add a sort button to my custom bar but it seems not possible as the menu choice is not working (I think)

Any help appreciated. 
 

Thunderbird link opens Outlook

I have switched from Outlook to Thunderbird (actually Betterbird) and use an extension that creates links to selected messages. The link looks like this:  

thunderlink://messageid=684f0a63aaea3_1234a185110c2@deployment-background-default-857f9f5679-m8… 

If I add this link to Office, e.g. Excel, and click on the link, it opens my selected message. However, when I add the link to IQ, and click on the link, it tries to open Outlook.

Drop down fields

Submitted by Jon on 2025/06/13 15:33

I have several fields configured as drop downs. Some are "Auto-list of values" others "Fixed list."

How do I open the drop down with the keyboard? And can I use type ahead to begin and select a value accordingly?

I used to know this, but now cannot figure it out.

Thank you for your help.
