Right now, in the properties pane parents section (parent hierarchy), when you click on a parent that can't be shown in current grid, the scratch pane will open, which is fine. However, there are many situations where you'd just want to see it that item (and its subs) in the current grid.

 

"Right click on parent in properties pane : context menu could offer to hoist in current grid" would be a nice solution IMO.

 

(Of course, one can try to get there by hoisting up one level at a time... But this can take time if the hierarchy is deep, or would just be impossible depending on the hierarchical  structure.)

 

Opinions?

(Since next big release is all about the calendar...)

Outlook and others do that. It's very convenient.

Opinions?

Hi Pierre, 

 Is 0.9.26 on the horizon? There's been more pre-releases of 0.9.25 than I expected (though some of the minor interface improvements have been wonderful).

 

If it's pretty close, may I suggest that  the upcoming  0.9.25h be the proposed "stable" version, then tell the users to torture test it for a set period of time.

 

If no "showstoppers" appear, then proclaim it 0.9.25h stable, with the release 0.9.26 prerelease 1. (and maybe a rough eta).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As far as I can tell, hierarchical relationships are 'read only' except when manually adding children to an item. But it would be cool if there were some way to create automatic hierarchical relationships, either be automatically assigning a certain parent to certain children, or visa versa (sort of along the lines of 'Agents' in Tinderbox, although that feature has a number of other shortcomings).

 

Does this make sense, and would there be any way to do it?

Hello all,

 

Now that I've gotten over the initial hump of linking to an external database (via ODBC), I'm still having trouble tweaking the process (I figured I might as well start a new thread, because my initial question about ODBC was very vague).

 

Here's the issue: With the sample ODBC database ("SQLNotesIssuesTracking"), I did an experiment. I deleted all the entries in the sample database, then did a sync. But only the first record in the database (the issue titled "Outlook-style Calendar"), reappeared when I ran the sync.

Sometimes the grid display is completely garbled. Refresh doesn't help, need to close the grid and reopen. I haven't been able to find out when that happens.

 

I think I've reported that before, but I can't find it (it's not in Mantis...).

 

Anyone else ?

 

But I'm always amazed at the many different things I can do with it! :)

 

I mean... Today I used it to :

-  manage some projects,

- triage and prioritize some tasks

- Read, take notes and clip web pages,

- add details to some references (articles)

- write parts of a future theatrical event (set and text)

- Exporte some structured notes for a meeting at my daughter's school,

- And... Structure/organize pseudo-codes with some fairly new grids/fields/icons I just "designed"... These make this sometimes difficult task much more fun and clear.

 

Of course some of the new "features" (new shortcut keys, favorites, etc.) and especially bug fixes (stability) and item mouse selection etc. make a difference...

[quote]I'm trying to link my IQ database to my Zotero database, which is a .sqlite file. I'm totally new to the world of SQL, but I've learned some of the basics over the last few days. I installed a sqlite-odbc driver, and I can now access my zotero.sqlite database from Microsoft Access. Now I'm trying to figure out how to write the appropriate sqlsynch.xml file in order to connect IQ to the ODBC data source. Can anyone give me any pointers (or point me to further information) on how to write the configuration file (connection string)?

Hello all,

 

I sometimes accidentally add initial spaces to lines, and this in turns leads to unexpected behaviour when sorting alphabetically. So, it would be great to have an option to disregard initial spaces when sorting, or else a way to automatically remove initial spaces. Thoughts?

 

Thanks,

Lucas

I don't know it that's an unfeasible / unpractical crazy idea... But it seems reasonable to me :-)

 

Would it be nice if we could hoist/unhoist a portion of the properties pane (a form, a section, a parent in the "available fields", etc.)?

It'd provide a way to isolate sections when working on specific fields.

 

Opinions?
