I recently updated to Windows 10 and re-installed InfoQube (116f).

Please could you let me know if there's a way to set a date field's default value to today's date?

I'm attaching an image that shows the difference in resolution between the window title (rendered by Windows) and the IQ text. It would be great to have IQ render text in higher resolution. Thanks!

While trying to paste the AHK code quoted at the end of this post (used to execute scripts on special button combinations on my mouse - aren't gaming mice great productivity enhancers?) into a single grid item, I ran into some problems:

 

1. The dialog offering to paste as a single item does not open, instead the code is pasted as several items with different amounts of lines included in each item, i.e. IQ does not put each line into a separate item but groups them together by its own logic.

2. The items created are in reverse order, i.e. the top of the code / text ends up being the bottommost item rather than the topmost one.

3. I then selected all the items that were created and ran the 'delete items' command. Deleting multiple items at once seems to be a very slow and hard job for IQ even though it's not much more than a page of text in total (though that's probably an irrelevant factor).

When the manage grids dialogue is opened, the grids should be sorted alphabetically.  Mine come up scrambled every time.  Then when I click on the header to sort, it sorts them in reverse order, so I have to sort them again.

 

Just a couple of extra unnecessary steps every time I go to the grids dialogue.  I know this has been discussed before.  Seems like we used to have a "save sort" option but I don't think it worked.

I wanted to re-assign items from different grids to other grids using forms.

 

To make this easier, I moved the forums I will be using to the top of the view so I can find them.

 

But every time I switch grids, the fields jump around and I lose sight of the fields I want to use.

 

There's probably a reason for this but it kind of defeats the purpose of quickly assigning items to fields if the field targets keep jumping around.

 

I've noticed other times that the form fields scroll and move around on their own as I do other tasks.  Seems like they should stay put unless I move them but there may well be a reason I'm not thinking of.

 

Besides losing track of the fields for item assignment, the constant scrolling and jumpi

 Whether I use the installer version or the portable version, IQ's taskbar icon will only appear on the taskbar of the primary display. If I move IQ's window to the other display, the tasbar icon does note move. Whereas with pretty much all the other programs I use, moving the window between displays also causes the taskbar icon to move. Any chance this could be addressed? Thanks!

Just an idea to consider somewhere down the line.  Have IQ monitor a specified folder for the creation of any new files.  If a new file is found, IQ creates a new item with a link to the file, with appropriate fields filled in (Inbox, ItemHasHTML, ItemHTMLFile, FileRef, FilePath, FileName) as appropriate.  This might be a useful and very easy way to get new content into IQ.

 

Maybe when ItemHTMLFile points to a folder, rather than a file, IQ could monitor that folder for new files and create a subitem for each file in the folder.

 

And ... to continue the moonshot, perhaps IQ could import the file metadata into IQ fields.  

 

iQ could be integrated with the file system in many more useful ways.

 

Hi,

 

As shown in this screencast (https://bit.ly/3l66rQ2), the Live-Search isn't interpreting the underscore symbol '_' as a string:

Is it possible to make the underscore symbol '_' to be interpreted as a string?

For instance, if I type in the search box TT_, I'd like IQ listing just the items that have TT_ in the item name, but for instance, the current output lists 'Otter' and many otter double TT despite of the underscore symbol.

 

Thank you,

Carlos
