Hi IQ Users,
 
In this release (v0.9.26PreRel55):
  • New: Grid: Can now add items when column filters are active. Column filters are now so much more functional !
  • New: Grid Properties: Numerous UI improvements including a new column to show / hide the grid in the grid lists (menu, toolbar). Context menus and column filtering were also enhanced (see "Show Grid in Toolbar" checkbox)
  • New: EmailToIQ: Checking now occurs asynchronously. Before, on slow Internet connections, the UI would lock up during new email check. On fast Internet connections, it was causing a 2-5 seconds lockup of the UI.
  • New: EmailToIQ: Set the delay to 0 enables Manual Mode. Use Tools > Check EmailToIQ Now or double-click the icon on the status bar to execute.
  • New: Popup editor: Added Split Item. Use the Split Item shortcut key to activate (default is Ctrl + Shift + S)
  • Changed: "Tagged items" is now named "Marked items".
  • Change: Grid: Auto-Search is now a command, not a grid state. It auto-disables itself after 5 seconds of keyboard inactivity or by pressing ESC or the keyboard shortcut (default is CTRL + F3)
  • Fixed: Grid: Drag-drop does not remove old parent link (see: [FIXED] When items are just moved under another parent, previous parents' link are kept (prerel54))
  • Fixed: Grid: While editing, pressing the right arrow while on the last character closed the editor and moved to the next cell. Same for the left arrow when on the first character. Now, while editing, the left / right arrows only move the cursor inside the editing region. Press F2 to save or ESC to cancel edits. Up and Down arrows can still be used to exit the editor.
  • Fixed: Grid: Drag-drop a field from the Properties Pane to a grid did not add it as a column
  • Fixed: Gantt: Print Preview of the full gantt does not show gantt part, just grid.
  • Fixed: Gantt: Pressing Cancel in the Print Preview dialog would hide the IQ window (users would then need to terminate the task and restart)
  • Fixed: Grid Properties: Changing the View > Tree column shows outline labels setting required a grid close and re-open to be applied. No longer does. You can also use the Grid > Labels on the Tree column command to do the same thing
  • Fixed: HTML pane: Edit with MS Word command was incorrectly disabled for MHT documents (see [FIXED] In HTML pane why does Word icon disappear after I use it??)
  • Fixed: Sync: Sync copy was not updated when closing the IQBase (this could cause loss of recent changes)

+1 !!!

Finally trying it, and it seems to work well. Some positive comments first!
 
>New: Grid: Can now add items when column filters are active. Column filters are now so much more functional !
 
a blessing! thanks! Makes life with filters much simpler!
 
>New: Grid Properties: Numerous UI improvements including a new column to show / hide the grid in the grid lists (menu, toolbar). Context menus and column filtering were also enhanced (see "Show Grid in Toolbar" checkbox)
 
Thanks, works well.
 
>New: Popup editor: Added Split Item. Use the Split Item shortcut key to activate (default is Ctrl + Shift + S)
 
convenient, thanks
 
>Changed: "Tagged items" is now named "Marked items".
 
Much much clearer! No more confusion.
Don't know if "Collect" might have been semantically clearer (as the goal of "marking" is to collect to use items in various way, and also because collect and collection are terms used in other applications for the same purpose), but it's probably not important... as long as it's clear to the user.
 
>Change: Grid: Auto-Search is now a command, not a grid state. It auto-disables itself after 5 seconds of keyboard inactivity or by pressing ESC or the keyboard shortcut (default is CTRL + F3)
 
Works well here. Seems like it's the best way to handle it.
 
>Fixed: Grid: Drag-drop does not remove old parent link (see: when items are just moved under another parent, previous parents' link are kept (prerel54))
 
Thanks
 
>Fixed: Grid: While editing, pressing the right arrow while on the last character closed the editor and moved to the next cell. Same for the left arrow when on the first character.

Ah! cool. This was annoying, but was always forgetting to mention it.
 
Other fixes seem to work too.
 
 
A couple bugs maybe:
 
>New: EmailToIQ: Set the delay to 0 enables Manual Mode. Use Tools > Check EmailToIQ Now or double-click the icon on the status bar to execute.
>New: EmailToIQ: Checking now occurs asynchronously. Before, on slow Internet connections, the UI would lock up during new email check. On fast Internet connections, it was causing a 2-5 seconds lockup of the UI.
 
Not sure, but I think that the double clicking on the status bar OR  tools>check email doesn't work properly. IQ isn't fetching any e-mail that way. Might try again later.

Overall great news !
 
More goodies to come in v0.9.26PreRel56
(which may turn out to be v0.9.26 (long time coming, that's for sure...)
 
Regarding EmailToIQ, was it working in prior versions ? Are you sure it is configured correctly ?

E-mail to IQ used to work but I'll double check later.

E-mail to IQ doesn't seem to work here.
 
- I sent an e-mail to IQ, tried to fetch it and nothing happens.
 
- Changed the config to a 60s check but it doesn't change anything.

- Using the config dialog, the connection test fails. But nothing has changed (since I first set the connection) and I just verified everything -- seems OK.
 
 
It's been a little while (May?) I haven,t sent something to myself, so it might have been like since then.
 
Anybody can try it out and see if it works for them?

I actually can't connect to my gmail account from IQ (the test button in the config. dialog in IQ's options -- e-mail to IQ section)
Nothing has changed in the config, and imap is still enabled in Gmail, etc. Not sure what went wrong as it was working before.

Strange indeed...
When you have some time, check if you can connect to your email with an email client

No problem with Outlook here (with this account).
 
Here's the config I use.
 
 
This is similar to the outlook config.

Perhaps you have 2-step authentification enabled on that account...
 
Either turn it off and use basic authentification or follow the steps described here:
 
I'll look into making the process of using the new 2-step authentification as easy as possible
 
HTH !

EDIT// I had missed your post above Pierre - but will leave this anyway:
 
I tried setting up my gmail for IQ:
 
In gmail, I have two step verification activated, so I needed to create an 'app specific password'**.
Settings same as Armando's above (apart from delete messages)
when I click on 'Test' I get:
---------------------------
Email connection test...
---------------------------
Connection FAILED !
---------------------------
OK  
---------------------------
 
** this has worked without a problem for Tbird / emclient / Syncovery (backup) / Smartphone.
