 Hi IQ Users !
 
Time for a quick update on IQ progress.
The new calendar module is progressing quite well. Most features present in the old "Outlook-like" calendar have now been implemented.
Version 0.9.26Pre-Rel14 will be available soon and will feature the new calendar. Over time, this calendar will be so much more powerful. Long-time Ecco Pro users will appreciate, I'm sure !.
 
In this release:
  • New: Properties Pane: F7 and F8 moves the focus to the previous/next item in the grid (same as in the HTML Pane).
  • New: Fast Search Refresh button
  • New: When an item has multiple parents and the user changes the main parent, the grids will update and show the new main parent (if Show context parents are enabled)
  • New: Main items can now be moved up / down in a grid (when sorting is disabled of course)
  • New: Grid now updates when a parent-child relationship is broken (this can be done in the properties pane)
  • New: Auto-Recalc is only started after 30 seconds after opening the file
  • New: A dialog to postpone the Auto-Recalc for 1 hour
  • New: When background Auto-Recalc is running, double-click on the status bar will prompt to postpone it for 1 hour
  • New: New Calendar: Can now add / modify / delete events
  • New: New Calendar: Can have multiple instances of the calendar with different views (day, week, month, etc.)
  • New: Mark as Done (Ctrl+M) is now enabled for the following views: Calendar, MapView and Fast Search (and of course all grids !)
  • New: Could items hyperlinks open items in their "homegrid" instead of the scratch grid ?
  • New: Easy multi-column filtering. Simply hit Ctrl-G and enter filter. Filter will search all grid columns. To limit the filter to specific columns, select 2 or more columns before filtering. Filter prompt at the bottom of the grid supports "Filter as you type".
  • New: Grid summary now shown at the top of the grid. Grid summary gives information regarding items displayed in the grid, including filtering and sorting
  • Fixed: Fast Search was not updated if an item is erased
  • Fixed: Fast Search did not support changes to multiple items using the property pane
  • Fixed: Workspace selected tab was not shown in bold
  • Fixed: Removing a child item was not triggering parent item recalc
  • Fixed: Properties Pane: Pressing the space bar on a read-only field could change its value
  • Fixed: Grids: Removing Hoist left the source and filter text boxes disabled. A refresh was necessary to re-enable them
  • Fixed: HTML: Caption was not updated on startup when pane in auto-hide mode
  • Fixed: Deleting items sometimes did not delete associated events in the Calendar
  • Fixed: Hoisted scratch grid prevents new data to be seen
  • Other: Faster startup
  • Other: Faster / smarter update of the properties pane
  • Other: Faster IQBase repair
  • Other: Faster loading of grids (in particular grids with many columns)
  • Other: By default, grids will no longer be visible by other programs, to improve performance. A new grid property "Visible to other applications" can be used to make it visible
  • Other: Improved grid column filters
  • Other: Filter as you type now only applied to text and numeric columns
This post will be updated as v0.9.26Pre-Rel14 is being finalized.
 
Version 0.9.26PreRel14 is now available. See Version 0.9.26Pre-Rel14 is now available ! for details.

Hello Pierre (and Armando and others):
 
I confess I had nearly lost faith, Pierre. But the burst of new energy and product developments in recent weeks and months encourages me, and I hope others, to believe in IQ (which is already good) and in its future. Please keep on - and please plan to get a version 1.0 out with us Real Soon Now. It's time you got some revenue in - you deserve it and so does InfoQube. We don't look for perfection: only for a successful product and some reward for you!

Hi Mark,
 
Nice to hear from you. Yes, IQ has been long in the making (10 years IIRC), and there is still significant work to be done before v1.0, but as it is approaching, my motivation is greater than ever to bring IQ to v1.0. I'm glad to see that recent progress encourages you !
 
Take care
 
Pierre
 

hmmm... goodies are piling up. Can't wait to try it !
