PDF Display Question

Submitted by WayneK on 2016/01/03 15:35
The good news is that the interim update Pierre gave me is allowing me to view PDF's outside the InfoQube drive.  Unfortunately, they're being displayed in an unreadable format with all kinds of toolbars taking up almost the entire viewing space.   The PDF itself shows up as tiny text in a narrow column in the middle.

HTML toolbars continue to get scrambled

Submitted by WayneK on 2016/01/03 12:26
I posted before that I'm losing my HTML pane toolbar settings when I do updates, despite carefully following the instructions for transferring settings.  I was willing to allow that maybe I'm still doing something wrong during the transfer, but last night it happened again, and I wasn't doing an update.
 
When I rebooted the computer last night to try to fix the database problem, my toolbars came up scrambled again.  It takes a fair amount of time to get everything where I want it, and I've gone through this at least half a dozen times.  Here are screenshots.
 
Before screenshot:
 
[Imagine toolbars nicely organized with all the formatting tools on the bottom row and all the tools I don't use deleted]

how to prevent resorting of subitems?

Submitted by jimspoon on 2015/12/29 18:32
I have an item with many subitems, manually arranged in a specific order, and was later dismayed to find that they had been sorted in alphabetical order.
 
Not sure how this happened.  The grid is set to sort items in ascending alphabetical order by the contents of the Item field.  The Item column header has the upward arrow.  The sort box is empty, but the sort box button settings are "Sort On" and "Sort Items", not "Sort Items and Subitems".
 
Anyway, is there a way to lock the sorting of an item's subitems, so that the manual ordering will not be affected by any global sorting setting?
 
On a somewhat different question - I would like to be able to open an item in a Scratch grid (perhaps after I have found it in using Quick Search (binoculars)), and then have the subitems displayed in the same manual ordering I created in the grid in which I entered them.&nbsp

Why are subitems disappearing?

I know "why are my items disappearing" has been a common question but now I have one of my own.  I thought I understood the rules for this, but maybe not.
 
I did a grid refresh and several subitems disappeared.
 
1) I opened a scratch grid showing all items by creation date.  The subitems are there, underneath the proper TLI,
 
2) Full hierarchy and context parents are on (I tried turning each on and off - didn't make a difference).
 
3) I tried Item>show all subitems.
 
4) No filters are on
 
I thought all subitems should show underneath their parents unless there's a filter in effect that excludes them.
