One of the wonderful things about IQ is how easy is it to have items show up in multiple grids.  But what is the best way to relate an item to two TLI?  Example:

 

- You have a project TLI of "Move Office"

 

- You have a contact TLI in the address book for the property manager for new office building.  You make a call to him and want to log it and want it to appear as a record both under the project AND under his name in the address book?

 

Use the hyperlink feature??

Currently I am using DropBox to sync my main database file across two computers.

 

For the Users file I just copied them across computers.  Am I likely to experience any problems/corruptions if I were to just put all the (portable USB version) files in the DropBox folder so that the Users file (and all other IQ files) also sync?

 

Thanks

Hi Pierre,

 

I'd like to suggest to add a third option in the "postpone recalc" dialog.

If I type a lot of text in the item field, is there a setting anywhere that allows the row to expand to the size of the text?

Suggestion 1: Right now to apply a forum you have to select a form in the properties pane and click on one of the itsy bitsy icons.  I could be wrong but I'm betting for a specific grid most users are applying the same form.  So a nice enhancement would be if a default form could be assigned to a grid, the purpose of which would be that you could also provide shortcuts to activate the default form.  For instance I might enter an item, then right click and select "apply default grid form".  Alternatively there could be a toolbar icon for "apply default form grid".

 

Suggestion 2:  I'm setting up about 10 forms and they are all identical except for one field.  Tools>Manage Forms, it would nice to be able to right click on a form and copy it.

 

Thanks

Hi Pierre!

 

IQ is generally working well, but in the last 2-3 versions I think, "Updating pane" is happening a lot: the properties pane is a bit slow to update.  1- It prevents me to see the grid I'm working on  or 2- it takes time to display an item's content when I need to see it.

 

Nothing has changed in the way I use IQ. My properties pane is set on auto-hide to avoid overhead, and is shown only when I need it. My guess is that the pane is waiting for grids to finish their own background UI updating (?) before making its own updates. Generally speaking, I find that all that background (UI?) updating slows down IQ operations in a perceptible way and make work more difficult. (E.g.

 Hi IQ Users,

there used to be a visual cue signalling the user that "auto-search" is on or off.

seems to be gone here and it makes mistakes easy to make...

 

Hello,

 

I have some issues with IQ's power consumption. I use it all the time so it has a measurable impact on battery life and laptop temp/noise (fan speeding up).

 

1- Simple GUI operation.

 

E.g.:

- moving focus left/right in columns makes the CPU jump to 25-30%. Many items, many columns, but No filters are active.

 

2- Equations
