shift + tab to move focus to previous column : leaves the previously selected column selected.

(It's not just cosmetic : Dangerous for data : when deleting, both columns will be deleted.)

 Of course, it shouldn't be possible when there are no parents...

But what about the other cases where an item has parents but IQ greys out the option to hoist up one level ? Is there a  reason for that ?

It would be nice to be able to hoist up one level whenever items have parents.

 

Thanks!

Hi Pierre

Did something change at some point in the way items (XML way, item + subs) are copied/pasted in IQ...?

 

When an item has multiple parents and is found in several places under a copied hierarchy, that item pasted only once (when the paste process pastes as "new" item, of course, NOT as a new link/parent link).

e.g.

Hi IQ Users,

I was trying to edit the fields in Tools > Options > This File according to the instructions for setting up Dropbox file sync.

 

However, I discovered that I unable to change any options in the Options dialog except for checkmark options.

 

For example, in Tools > Options > This File > Background Recalc, I am able to check or uncheck the checkbox.

 

But for "Auto backup every x minutes", i am unable to change this value from the existing value of 10.  I've tried single-clicking the field, double-clicking the field, pressing F2, typing in a number, trying to click the up/down button that momentarily appears in the field - nothing works to activate this option to change the value.

 

The same thing happens when I try to select a folder for the "Sync Folder" option.

 

UPDATE:  I just discovered that I can activate and

Sometimes, it's really hard to close the field properties dialog.

It doesn't seem to happen with a sample DB, maybe because there aren't many fields, grids, etc.

 

The steps:

- open the dialog

- make some modification to a field

- save

- try to close : clicking the close button makes the button change Color, but nothing happens. Sometimes I need to reclick 20 times, even after waiting for the fields background updates/calculations (I'm guessing that's what it does since it takes so much time to even switch fields in the dialog after making modifications to one).

 

It's pretty annoying as making a simple changes to a field can take much more time than it should.

- create new grid

- uncheck word wrap in the grid properties

- save in grid properties and close the dialog

- everything seems ok : word wrap is off in the grid column headers

- close IQ and restart

- word wrap is ON

 

Workaround : deactivate word wrap for the item field (right click on header, etc.) and reactivate it.
