I am about to give IQ another twirl.  I have some memory of it from when I used it several years ago so i should catch up pretty quick.  Like most users, I'll be customizing it heavily to my needs.  It'd be nice to start out with some sample data just because it also includes some grids to get started with.  On the other hand, if I start to use those, do they contain a lot of settings that I'll ultimately have to dig through and adjust/delete etc.?  Any reason not to start with the default grids, or should I just start fresh even though it'll mean more time before I can use it.

 

Thanks for your thoughts.

You can see a drop down box on the right when the source bar is hidden. Clicking on the down arrow activates a blank drop down. Is this supposed to be displayed?  If I click on the icon to the right of the drop down bow (the one to activate the source bar), everything seems to work as normal. Using the menu to activate/deactivate the source bar has the same GUI behavior. So my questions - is this box supposed to be there when the source bar is hidden? What is its purpose?

EDITED a few minutes later to cover up my stupid assumptions and to ask better questions.

Did I overlook a vacation announcement? Pierre has been awfully silent here although I saw a recent post from him on Outliner Software. I'm also curious about the status of 35.

I'd like to create a couple of fields/columns for applying attributes to items, I would want to choose only ONE item for each column from a multi-select list.  Something like this:

 

"Item Type"

In other words, Item Type would be a column and Action OR Information would be the possible selections.  What would be the best way to do this.  I don't need complete directions, just an explanation of what function in IQ would be best to accomplish this and I'll read the documentation from there.

 

Thank you in advance.

I downloaded the sample IQ database a couple of times from different computers and all it contains is a single file named "Sample.SNTemplate".  I gave it an extension of .sndb and got it to work.  You may want to make sure it has an extension of more new users are not going to be able to get it to work.

 

I am trying to reproduce the work done notably by LucasD some years ago when he successfully integrated InfoQube with the SQLite database which underlies the Zotero reference management system.

The problem which I wish to report is that when I attempt to synchronise my IQbase with that SQLite database, absolutely nothing happens. There is no error message but nor is any data imported.
