Copy/paste multiple lines issue

Still having trouble copy/pasting multiple lines.

A) Item has two lines (with hard return in between)

B) Select item>Ctrl-C

C) Select one or more blank items to paste into.

C) Dialogue comes up:

1) - Paste 1 line into selected items. 

I don't know why someone would select a block of text then just paste one line of it but I'm sure there's an explanation I'm not thinking of.

2) - Paste all lines into selected item(s). 1 new items will be created.

Provide option for repetitive actions

Where appropriate, provide an option to perform the same action in multiple cases.

For example, I just dragged several hundred file links into InfoQube.  Dozens of links matched existing links in the file.  A dialogue popped up asking me if I wanted to use the existing link or create a new one.

At this point, I think there should be an option to perform the same action on all the remaining items.  Instead, I had to go thru the same dialogue for each individual file instead of doing a single bulk operation.

Hierarchy display abnormality when using group-by

Sometimes the hierarchy of items doesn't display properly when using group by. I have attached a file to demonstrate the issue.

In the file, click on the MyJournal grid. (This grid is set to group by ItemCreated.) Click Refresh. Expand all items in the grid. On my system, the result looks like this:

Using Tags as Fields/Columns

Submitted by Greg_M_IQ on 2021/05/25 16:03

In many instances I enter identical data in fields/columns as I enter using tags (as least those fields that use drop down selections). I think it would be helpful to be able to enter data in tags that can appear as a column, and data entered into columns that would be automatically entered as tags.

One way this could be implemented is to enable a field/column to be created by using a tag #. When displayed, it would show the entries in that tag for each item. If the tag was a parent, then each of its child entries for a given item would be displayed.

Make Info Pop-up Customizable

Suggestion:

1) Make info pop-up window customizable (window that pops up when you hold down Ctrl while hovering cursor over item). 

This is such a great way to make key info handy but it's usefulness is restricted by having no control over the info shown. 

I'm not going to argue about what's shown because everyone will have their own idea about what's important (though I can't resist questioning why the pop-up shows the item contents when you are already hovering over the item and can see the contents directly.)

Delete item dialog choices and results

Been giving the delete item dialog some thought:

For child items that don't actually have a value for the field underlying the current grid, showing option 2 - "Remove from this Grid only" doesn't seem to make any sense. If applied, the item will go into hiding and reappear unchanged in the same place after refreshing the grid. Perhaps in that case, 2 should have the same effect as 3 - or it should be omitted, offering only 1 + 3?
