due date in capture dialog

Submitted by jan_rifkinson on 2009/04/20 13:51
Not strictly a how to question but
 
If I clip / copy to IQ, a handy dialog opens that has a due date. However it looks to me like any appt would have to be ApptDate.  So if I clip a mtg announcement from a website & I enter a due date, it's never going to appear on a a calendar which seems only to relate to ApptDate.  I'm probably missing something here but the clipping dialog date entry can save a 2nd step in some instances which would be handy but I'm not clear on how to use it.  TIA

EccoPro on Outliner Forum

Submitted by jan_rifkinson on 2009/04/20 08:37
As I was  browsing the most recent Outliner Forum posts, I came across an article on EccoPro + webcapture extension which led me back to the EccoPro extensions forum, etc.  I was amazed by what seems to be available for this venerable program which many of us used so many years ago. Now that it's open source, it's almost like an APP store has opened to service EccoPro, bringing what was an advanced program for it's day into the 21st century.  Bottom line,  I'm wondering -- at the end of the day -- exactly how IQ will differntiate itself from all that.  Part of IQ development seems to be re-inventing the wheel but I'm sure it is more advanced / sophisticated but I wonder how that translates into it's practical use by most users who are looking for a calendar + single pane outliners.   Sometimes I feel like I'm waiting for stuff here that already exists in EccoPro.

Pierre, the two options for gantt display seem to be only one... or one that remains & one that comes & goes. There is one view that has months on top & nothing else, i.e. no day, week, month, etc (I'm assuming these are the zoom buttons). I am only interested in seeing the months w/o all that other stuff w hich I only find confusing @ this time. But it seems to drop out, disappear. Any help here would be appreciated. Thx

Overstrike turned off - should this not work with paste as well?

Submitted by Tom on 2009/04/16 08:32
I thought this was a bug report but not sure now:
 
with Overstrike mode turned off I would have expected that if I paste in a cell, that the pasted text would be added to the current content.
Instead it replaces the current text - i.e. it works in Overstrike mode even if this mode is turned off
 
I would expect (and like) to see the option that pasted text would be added to text in the cell (when OVR turned off)
What do you think?
