hi,

 

I find the ability to include images in the Item column really useful. However I always have to manually adjust the row height to show the whole image (images are not massive, but they're more than a single line in height). If there are a lot of such items this can become a bit tedious. Would it be possible to have such items "obey" the Word Wrap command? I know there aren't any actual "words" there to wrap, but it seems logical somehow that Word Wrap should let you see all of what's in the field, whether words or image. Or could there be some other way of doing this?

In the current version (v83) if a user is working with the expand and collapse commands, there is a strange asymmetry of functionality.

 

If Parent X is expanded, i.e. children x,y and z are visible, by collapsing the X, the children would get collapsed. The nice thing is that even with them collapsed, the Collapse command still can be used to hide Parent X in favor of GrandParent Y, essentially mimicking collapse on the part of the grandparent.

 

The reverse is possible in InfoQube with Ctrl+Shift+1, 2, n-th level, but it would be much more comfortable to the user to just press the same shortcut over and over again, and have the levels unfold one at a time, i.e. ctrl+Left Arrow. And maybe have another command to expand all.

Hello,

 

Could some of the vets offer some advice on using search?  I'm still finding it awkward and unintuitive even after reading the help file again.  Here are a couple of questions but any additional advice on using search would be appreciated.

 

1) How do I edit an item shown in the search list?  In Ecco Pro search result items can be edited like any other.  In my omnibox search results, selecting an item selects the whole row but you can't edit any fields.

View > HTML Editor > New HTML Editor often takes as long as 5 seconds to open the new window.  Is there anything that can be done to speed that up?

 

Also, it's a small thing, but wouldn't the verbiage "open HTML editor" be better?  "New" usually suggests the user is creating something new, whereas in this instance the user is probably usually just trying to "open in new window".

 

Thanks

Hi IQ Users,

 

I've been meaning to add plain text support to the HTML pane. Would you find this useful ?

 

At the same time, I could add MarkDown (and other "light" markup syntaxes). In Browse mode, the HTML version of the markup would be shown. Interested ?

Setup sync for two files today -- I had some problems with both, but didnt have time to figure out exactly what was happening-

I had problems with adding the *.sndb.files folder:
in both cases, I added the equivalent of "Dropbox\IQBases\MyIQBase1.SNDB.Files"
=>
in both cases, the path got changed to "Dropbox\IQBases\MyIQBase1.SNDB.Files\MyIQBase1.SNDB.Files"

Database #1: I had already moved the relevant folder
Database #2: I had already created the folder as it didnt exist

DB #1: I thought I had browsed to the folder in DB #1, but not 100% sure of that
DB #2: I browsed to folder on machine #2, but could not click OK on the dialogue (Win.7), so I added the path to options.

I dont (and wont) have time to experiment with this to see what exactly the problem is --

I would greatly appreciate such a feature.

 

As of now it is rather difficult to gain an overview (with context) of all the places an item might belong to.

In the properties pane, only the immediate parent is displayed, which is sometimes not enough to comprehend quickly the dependencies.

 

I hope it wouldn't be too difficult to implement.

 

There is alternative way now to open the item in MapView, but this one would be quicker and more convenient for most users (I know I am still to make more use of MapView)

hi,

 

in Grid Options you can specify that the grid appear in the properties pane. Couple of things on this I'm not sure about. a) why are "Item" and "Notes" the only two fields that appear in the grid, even when there are other fields in the grid? b) If you check this option the grid will appear in the properties pane even when you're viewing other grids. Is there any signficance to this? Eg if I specify that Grid A appear in the properties pane, and then go to Grid B, in the properties pane I will again see, under "Grids", the fields for Grid A. But again, only Item and Notes. And what they actually show is content for Item and Notes in Grid B, not for Grid A.

 

Is the idea that you have another possible way of viewing a grid's fields, but as part of Properties, ie in an item-by-item kind of way rather than columns?

Haven't worked in InfoQube for a few years & couldn't find the info on the forum or in help files

I'm looking for a fast way to enter time only

Thank you.
