Hi IQ Users,
 
In this release (v0.9.26PreRel42):
  • New: Omnibox can be placed on the main menu if desired. 
  • New: Pop-up list now supports Filter-on-type. Either click on the header of hit Ctrl+F to activate it (See Auto-complete on SQL-derived field)
  • Fixed: Major cleanup / update of the Customize dialog content. Lots of commands were missing or in the wrong place
  • Fixed: Pressing the Omnibox keyboard shortcut could lock IQ
  • Fixed: Omnibox command list text did not always perfectly match the menu items
  • Fixed: Cannot make changes to the Omnibox in the Customize dialog (see Some UI inconsistencies in 41)
  • Change: Omnibox default keyboard shortcut has changed to Ctrl+F as it does search too. The original shortcut was also incompatible with AZERTY keyboards. User should reset their custom shortcuts or manually change it.
  • Change: Grid: Paste now pastes as plain text by default. Use Paste Special > Paste as HTML if you want to preserve rich text formatting
(Portable only version for now. Installable one will be available later)

for me Ctrl+F brings up the "binoculars" tab and the cursor appears in the text box - anything I type in this box is searched for and the hits are displayed below.  Ctlr+F does not activate the Omnibox (i.e. the Search Box toolbar.)
 
However, there is no possibility to enter a grid name or a command here - that is possible only in the "Search Box" toolbar..  If I type in that box - an auto-complete dropdown shows the matching views or commands.  However - the Ctrl+F keyboard shortcut doe snot activate this Search Box toolbar.
 
I tried to make a keyboard shortcut Alt+/ to activate the Omnibox, but couldn't get that to work.  I did succeed in making an "Alt+4" shortcut as follows:
 
(1) activate Customize dialog by clicking Tools > Keyboard Shortcuts
(2) right click the omnibox ("Search Box" toolbar)
(3) in the edit box next to the word "Shortcut" I typed in "Alt+4", and pressed Enter.
 
After doing this Alt+4 activates the Omnibox.
 
I might be doing it the wrong way - but the sequence of steps described above to make the keyboard shortcut for the Omnibox doesn't seem very intuitive.

Simply reset the keyboard shortcuts, as specified in the first post
 

oh .. one other thing ... on Pre-Rel42, in the main menu bar (File Edt View etc) - the "Grid" item is displayed in Bold, while the other menu options (File, Edit, View etc) are not bolded.
