My source is :

 

Field1 is set to be auto assigned to all items created in the grid.

 

 

- If I copy some items as XML in another grid (with different source) and paste them in the above mentioned grid (with Field1 OR field2 as the source), items "aren't pasted".  Well, they are, but they don't meet the source and disappear.

 

I'd understand the problem with another kind of complex source, but not in this case (plus, there's an auto-assign rule, so it should really be treated as a simple source). I also have the feeling that it wasn't like that before.

I don't know what happens, but for several grids I completely lost my filters histories over the last 2 weeks.

This represents many hours of work.

 

IMO :

- Filter history's saving could be made more robust

- Filter history could be backed up or imported/exported.

 

Anybody else experienced that ?

In the grid, when I click ANYWHERE in an item containing an email address, I launch the default email program.

However, an URL within the text launches the way I expect, only when I click on the url itself. 

 

 

 

1- In a grid, turn ON "filter criteria applies to subitems".

2- Close the grid and reopen it.

3- Choose a Y/N field-column to which you'll apply a column filter criteria

4- select "non-blank"

 

You'll see that TLIs will be filtered properly but not SLIs

 

I have to turn off "Filter criteria applies to sub items", and ON again, and then everything is fine until the next grid close, reopen.

 

Anybody can confirm ?

I made up a quick iqbase of all the forum topics as of 11-13-2010, and it is attached in case someone else may find it of use.It should help supplement the forum searching.

 

I think it'd be useful and probably simple to implement. child c --> parent/child b --> parent/child a  

Of course the reverse (down arrow)  isn't really possible I guess (parent/child a  -> parent/child b --> child c).

 

[  Edit  2010 11 16 -- 22 18 : if someone has an intelligent idea for ctrl-down arrow though... It would be nice..

And... I just had another idea , and maybe would that be even more useful :

 

Ctrl + down/up arrows : skipping from sibling to sibling, jumping over children (there might be another shortcut standard for that action... But I don't know it). Now that would be extremely handy.

For example:

If I select / copy to IQ all the events on page http://www.acorn-online.com/joomla15/theridgefieldpress/people/datebook…

the data loses a line between items, thus making it very hard to read or causing user to add lines for easier digestion.

I'm guessing this has something to do w formatting i.e. line + <CR> etc

 

Does changing HTML Edit to <div> or <paragraph> make a difference here & if so, when would user select one over the other?

I selected all copy in HTML & selected <div> = no change

I selected all copy in HTML & selected <paragraph> = no change

 

 

There's been many posts about sorting in the last few days .

 

The best approach to problem seems to be :

1- Automatic sorting using columns : only when sort bar is ON.

 

Nothing to add here. This should/would be the default sorting mode for most users

 

 

Upon resorting, It creates some extra "empty groups".

 

See Group items by sort column : after a refresh, it stays, but it's messed up. (M), screencast at the end of the thread.

 

Needs confirmation before Mantis.

I started up a book page -- link to nonexistent node ID 2094 -- for considerations of when to use the grid vs the html, and combinations, including pane vs MHT. I'm presently doing some fall cleanup, and converting many of my smaller html pane notes over to the grid, and will probably convert mht's that don't contain pictures also to the grid.

 

It has been discussed several times over the years, but is not easy to find on a forum search.

 

I could use help with links to existing forum discussions, and comments
