I did something, and now when I punch enter key in the HTML pane, the text goes into a grid cell. How do I undo it?
Thanks

Every once in a while an unexplained & very quirky thing happens in IQ. Try something simple like closing / re-opening program. That usually does it. If that doesn't work, come back

That's so odd, don't think I've ever read anything about this. Also Repair & compact might be helpful. Otherwise I think Pierre or someone else will have to help you out. Sorry

haven't seen this, perhaps a screenshot of the problem would help?

I thought that was something in the setting I'd changed by mistake. Just to be sure, let me describe it again.
When I'm in the HTML pane, and there is some text in there, and then I punch the "enter" key, the text from the HTML pane goes into the cell in the corresponding grid.
Take care,
Jay

yes this is by design. If the item text is empty, IQ takes the first line of the HTML pane and copies it there. Much like MSWord does that to name your files.

Oh, wow. I just learned something else about this wonderful program.

With the new navigation / item creation built-into the HTML pane, that means that you can have it very large and create items without leaving the pane. Focus stays in 1 spot.

Okay, I see. I will probably redesign my grid, but anyway, can I turn it off?
Take care,

Since I didn't know this either, I made up a quick page Auto item text based on content  to try to capture this.  It needs work, but it'll do as a start.

Again -- is it possible to prevent this automatic feature?
Take care,

Not right now, but I can add an option.

I don't think so. It might be good to have an option to turn it on/off.
One work around at the moment if you don't need that feature is to create your items in advance and maybe insert a space in each item (that would become the item text, and wouldn't be replaced by what'S written in the HTML pane's first line)
