Hi Jibz,

Would you mind on the next chm run, to "include keywords from html files"?

Here's what it looks like in the compiler; you may know how to make a directive for the perl script instead.

 

You'll notice on section 5 of the manual, I copied the html shown below, at the bottom of the online manual test pages. Then when I compiled myself, it gave the 1Find and 1Search entries at the top of the index page, and kept the index.hhk entries you set up (please keep those there, as they will help figure out appropriate index terms.

This should be a way forward on an index file.

Right now it's only available in the properties pane context menu when right clicking in the Tagged items section. It's useful in the properties pane, but I think it would also be very convenient if the user could have access to the feature directly from the grid.

 

Opinions ?

 I have been unable to do this by using new html or new mht & I have tried & tried & tried <sigh>

Hi Pierre,

 

Is it okay to make an  "under the hood" reference page for the manual?

 

It would just list the components, and websites, and what they do in general,  and maybe some very general info on the vb "glue", the stuff  found in old posts.

 

 

 

Hi,

Why does the Date Filter from within Calendar keep defaulting to March 29 each time I open IQ, depsite the fact I always (have to) set it to the current date each time I open IQ ?

thanks, Doug Bartlett

I made some edits to 1. Items.

If you have any ideas, improvements, etc, please edit the page itself, or post suggestion here, thanks!

 

 I found out another outliner, Infohesive is now free. I mention it, because it seems to have extensive import and export capability, and might stimulate/illustrate some ideas /coming attractions for infoqube.

I experimented and imported Jibz' chm file it, then produced a pdf from that, that was kind of neat. (it "choked" on a few pages, with an invalid picture file format, but they were able to be bypassed.

 

I am not sure that this is the proper forum for this, but here goes. I know that Pierre has been steadily improving performance, but for me large databases just seem very sluggish. This has nothing to do with filters, conditional formatting, or auto-assign features. For example, one of my DBs has a grid with a lot of entries (>5000) and exceeds 9 levels deep. Scrolling is a nuisance and refreshing takes forever. I have repaired and compacted the database with little discernable improvement. Do others see this too?

P.S. I may be overloading IQ through my own misuse. If so, tell me, but I thought IQ was built for this sort of flexibility. In its early iterations, Ultra Recall was (for me) very slow, but its performance has improved remarkably.

[Edit] I modified -- link to nonexistent node ID 1693 -- to have child pages for each issue. I believe it will be much easier to manipulate and update.

Also it could be more easily colloborative--submit ideas on each page, contribute what you know, etc

 

I made a this page for the "to-do's" in the online manual. Feel free ta add or revise anything.

This can be our "Mantis" type of system to keep track of things to do.

 I moved the "obsolete" section of the online manual to the "test book" section. That would probably be a good place to move any future obsolete pages.
