Gantt inconsistency

Submitted by Jon on 2013/04/03 14:13
Using the latest 8A.
 
In a new, blank database, I have a gantt set up to track some projects. The gantt is blank. The overview is on. I click on month or year and the gantt displays the region in the vicinity of the current date. However, if I click on week, day or hour I am taken back more than a year to 2012.
 
Also, after doing as described above, if I click in the gantt or in the outline area IQ locks up and has to be terminated using TM. This does not happen every time, but frequently enough to prevent me from using this feature of IQ.

 
Can someone confirm?

Maybe Win8 & or IE10 oddities

Submitted by jan_rifkinson on 2013/03/30 19:34
 I will add to this list as I encounter things that strike me as as strange
  1. As reported in other threads, I cannot post to this forum using IE10 (Armando reported the same issue)
  2. date field formatted <format> mm/dd/yyyy </format> displays as date + hours, minutes & seconds
  3. many IQ shortcuts aren't working. Anything w function key is a problem b/c on my laptop all function keys have to be activated w Fn + Function key
  4. <CTRL> + and - don't function to expand / contract in the outline

Coming up w the closest thing to Evernote sync for IQ

So the question is: what's the best scenario for using IQ on multiple machines w/o over-writing more recent data? Of course this is seamless with Evernote, Catch. I think this would be a worthwhile discussion. Simply saying use drop box etc is not sufficient. We should include work flows, i.e. how to set IQ to open, how to exit IQ, etc. 
 
BTW, with Win 8 / IE10, I am unable to post on this forum b/c the message body input is not transmitted to the forum. I think Armando has the same problem.  I have not tried this on a Win7 / IE 10 machine yet. 

Properties Pane / All Fields section

Submitted by jimspoon on 2013/03/21 13:55
I wish the All Fields section would work a lot more like the Folders Pane in Ecco.
 
Ecco has an "Edit Folders" function that enables you to add / delete / rename / promote / demote / rearrange folders in place in the folders tree via the keyboard.    Right now it's cumbersome in IQ to add a field and position it right where you want in the field tree.  There should be right-click options in the field tree so that I can do things like "add field below at same level" or "add field below at next level right".
 
It should be possible to rearrange (promote / demote / move up / down)  fields by keystrokes just like it is done for items in the grid.
 
Also I was experimenting with some journal entries I imported from Ecco via CSV.

MS Office Web Components Issue

Submitted by d bartlett on 2013/03/09 11:56
Hi,
 
For a couple years now I have been using IQ on a laptop on which MS Office 2010 as well as MS Project 2002 are also loaded.  Yesterday I upgraded to MS Project 2010 and then unloaded Project 2002.
 
Now I cannot create Pivot Tables or Charts because I get the error message stating, "Office 2000 (and up) is not installed.  Install Office or download the 'Office Web components' from the Microsoft web site to view the pivot table".
 
I uninstalled and reloaded IQ but still get the same error message.  Office 2010 is loaded and functional.  I am not an expert software troubleshooter and don't know what to do to regain pivot table and chart creation in IQ.
 
Advice if possible would be appreciated.
 
thanks, Doug Bartlett
