Properties pane stuff

- properties pane tab size always changes

Not a bug per se, but the continual size change when going from one item to the other makes it harder to visualize. Maybe the text displayed in the tab could be truncated after the 30 first chars (or whatever seems good) and remain at the same size?

- When on autohide mode, if a pane is pined and unpined, it can change place with the other pane

It's not a huge deal, but , on autohide mode (maybe other modes too, don't know)

1- if I set the properties pane tab vertically (right side of IQ window) above the HTML pane tab,
2- pin the properties pane tab and unpin it,
3- the properties pane tab now moves under the other tab.

Images not working in HTML pane is a recurrent problem

I'm starting a new thread just to try to get visibility for a recurrent problem that never seems to get conclusively resolved. I'm utterly frustrated trying to put images in the HTML pane. It's just not reliable and is repeatedly undermining my attempts to use InfoQube for research. Having images in the HTML pane is a big part of my method and it's becoming increasingly difficult to have any confidence in it. Over and over, I have to stop work and spend big chunks of time trying to fix image displays.

The recent thread about images not displaying is just the latest episode. It petered out without a resolution and no answer to my final question. In this case, as in others, InfoQube was working fine, then for some reason just stops working. In this case, the images started displaying as black boxes. I hadn't changed any settings or started doing anything differently. It just stopped working out of

Group / ungroup columns bugs

Submitted by Armando on 2015/12/02 01:02

Hi Pierre,

The column grouping doesn't work well enough for day to day usage. As soon as I group several sets of columns, things start to get weird.

Apart from that, the feature has a lot of potential. I like it -- I don't know if others have had the courage to test it, but it's fun and practical. A bit like the field hierarchies, it's great to group sub-columns under one main column and only expend it when needed. But since doing all that convenient grouping takes time (moving the columns around, creating groups etc.) it needs to be robust.

I'll try to be as precise as possible, but I don't have enough time to test thoroughly.

1- Sample DB, invoice grid

2- Select : InvoiceID, From, To : group under InvoiceID

3- Select : HrsRate, Duration, Billable : group under HrsRate
