I'm increasingly moving reference material into InfoQube, including a lot of file links.  I know Pierre added some fixes to insure that PDF's will display properly even when they're located on another drive, which is nice.  But now i'm wondering if I should be moving all my reference material to the same drive/folder as InfoQube for other reasons.

 

I believe file links have relative paths.  If I have my reference material in the same folder (drive?) as InfoQube, I can move everything together to another drive and everything will still work.  This isn't the case if I have reference material linked on other drives (unless I recreate the same drive number relationships from the new locations).

 

Is my understanding correct?  Are there any other caveats to consider in setting up links to reference files and embedded PDF's?

Hi IQ Users,

When I set up a hyperlink to an item in another grid, it should take me directly to that item in the grid.  Instead, it opens the linked item in a scratch grid.  I don't want that.  I just want to go to the item.  I can't find an answer in the help file and can't find any setting that controls this.

 

As a side note, has anyone run into links not working using item ID's?  It's worked ok for me except in one case.  I enter the correct item ID in the hyperlink dialogue but it creates a dead link.  I've checked it 10 times.  Everything is correctly entered, it just won't create a link to that item.  Here's the ID:

 

Version v0.9.26PreRel64a seems like the best so far.

I've always been frustrated with the folder filing system on PC's, which is really a 30-year old technology hold over.  If you think about why we all love IQ it's because it allows us to tag our information with meta data which then allows us to view and structure information in any way we want - moving beyond the folder paradigm.  I'd like to be able to do the same for files - assign a file to a project folder, contact folder, year folder etc.

Hi Pierre,

 

Another small issue I am encountering.  This happens in some HTML panes and even in those panes it might only happen in one area where I can't seem to change the bold setting.  I can even copy non-bold text into the area and it changes it to bold.  Video here.

 

 

Thanks,

Since upgrading from 62 to 64 today I keep getting warnings popping up at random (when IQ is open) as shown in the attachment.  I'll even get them when I'm in another application not even doing anything in IQ.  I just unselected "always ask before opening this file", I think I already had, but I'll now see if it happens again.  Regardless any ideas on why it's happening at all Pierre?  To reiterate, I am NOT talking about when I launch IQ, I'm talking about when I am using it, or even when it's open and I am not using it.

 

Thanks!

With the old hierarchical mode, there was a custom toolbar button that could be put on the toolbar to show the status of the mode, I very much liked being able to see at a glance which mode I was in.  Is this possible with the new Display Mode?  If not, please consider adding to a future release.

 

Thanks

Or some form of one?

 

Thanks
