Hi IQ Users,
  
In this release (v0.9.85):
  • New: Can now detach a tab to show it in a docking pane. Views can docked anywhere. Home Page can also be detached. In addition, it can be made floating
  • New: Grid: Can now show images in any text column. Can also paste an image from the clipboard to a grid cell directly
  • New: Grid: Can now copy / paste files from Windows Explorer to the grid. Supports multiple files. If copied to the tree column, a file link is also created and stored in file ref fields
  • New: Option to show workspace tabs at the bottom (Excel-like)
  • New: Properties pane: Improved keyboard handling: Can now use Alt + up / down and left / right to rearrange field hierarchy
  • New: Pane layout is now specific to each IQBase, stored in YourFile.ini. When using the IQBase on multiple PCs, each layout can be adapted to the screen size of the PC
  • New: Manage Forms: Improved keyboard handling (Ctrl + left / right to expand / collapse, Alt + up / down to move fields and forms, F2 to edit / close edit)
  • New: Live-Search: Ctrl + A selects all items. Search term highlight is shown when the focus is not on the text column
  • New: Grid: Item Info now shows all field values
  • New: Grid: Sort type button is now shown as checked when grid sorting is ON
  • New: Hyperlinks: If linking to a single item, can now specify the grid to show it in. ItemID | GridName (e.g. 1256 | Inbox)
  • Change: Properties pane: Form buttons are now: 1- Add item, 2- Add sub-item, 3- Apply form, 4- Clear form
  • Fixed: Grid: Grouping is not restored after a program restart
  • Fixed: Grid: Conditional Formatting converted criteria (defined in Field Properties) to lower case
  • Fixed: Grid: File drag-drop: If dropping a folder and the link text is empty, will use the folder name as link if FileName is checked or "(link)" if not
  • Fixed: Grid: Column grouping was disrupted when a column to the left of the group was removed
  • Fixed: Grid: Column grouping was disrupted when a field was drag-dropped from the Properties Pane to the grid and this field was already part of a group in this grid
  • Fixed: DateFilter: User specified duration was sometimes reset to 0. Also, making a change in the user duration did not update the filter immediately. A refresh was required
  • Fixed: Calendar: Edit > Erase Item (Ctrl + E) did not work. It now does the same thing as Calendar > Delete Event
  • Fixed: Calendar: Item > Remove from Calendar command was not visible
  • Fixed: HTML Pane: Improved Search and Replace. Can now show the Search and Replace toolbar and set it floating or docked. Replace now moves to the next occurrence and selects it.
  • Fixed: Field Properties: Newly created fields could not be drag-dropped onto a grid
  • Fixed: View > Hide Panes (F11) now correctly restores hidden panes
  • Fixed: Tab groups: When opening a existing grid that was in a very small group (width / height), it will be increased to see the grid. Before, the grid would be moved to a larger group. This modified grouping.
[Edit] Version updated to v0.9.85a with the following:
  • New: Multi-Select popup list: Option to sync fields with the same name as list values. So adding / removing values will check / uncheck corresponding fields
  • Fixed: Edit > Touch now works for fields in the Properties pane. Will touch values of all selected items
[/Edit]
 
 
Note: v0.9.85 is a major update. It has been extensively tested, but IQ having so many features, it is difficult to test it all.
         It is therefore suggested to use the Portable flavor and install it in a different folder. Run it along size v84 and report back if there are any new issues. Thanks !!

Have played a bit with the new ability to detach and rearrange pretty much everything. Very cool and flexible.

FYI, IQ with views in docking panes ! Adjust the layout to the way you work !

Thanks for the great work, Pierre.
 
I just downloaded and installed the regular version (I didn't take your advice to install portable version because I've had trouble with toolbar settings in the past).
 
I had a problem that seems to have resolved itself.
 
1) I have a grid set up for links to grids and items.
2) When I first opened the new version, my links grid came up blank (all white).  The Home grid was also blank.
3) Refreshed grids and re-started InfoQube.  Problem persisted.
4) Closed and re-started InfoQube a second time.  This time the grids came up correctly.
 
FWIW

The weekend can't come soon enough for testing :D

Great release!
One of my pane (with multiple grid tabs) is on autohide mode on the left. Very convenient for those general grids I often access.
Haven't  tested other features in any meaningful way yet, but they're useful too.

Bug : some shortcuts like ctrl+shift+0..9 don't have any effet on current focussed grid/pane, but will affect the main workspace.

There is some issues of focus when grids are in a pane, in particular when using pop-up lists. Please avoid using the grids in pane until the issue is fixed

Am emphasizing this, as it could cause problems.
Users : the trick is just to be a bit careful with panes, and stick with the main workspace for serious work.
 
Pierre : 85a is even faster than 83 and 84! great!

Hi IQUsers !
 
I'm working on these focus issues and should be able to release a fix today or tomorrow. In the meantime, it is best to not use grids in docking panes, or at least, not to modify data (view only)
