Help with settings

Submitted by WayneK on 2020/12/25 00:00
Can someone help me understand what settings are causing the following behaviors:
 
1) When I enter edit mode, multi-line item text is displayed in a single line that disappears at the right column line.
 
2) The WYSIWYG option is grayed out.
 
This started when I opened an old file I haven't used in a long time.  All the grids in this file are behaving this way.  All my other files are behaving normally.
 
Example:

how to copy/export many thousands of IQ items?

Submitted by jimspoon on 2020/12/23 13:10
I successfully imported some 140,000 items from a CSV file (saved from Excel) to a test IQ database.  The items had only two fields - Item and EntryDate.
 
Now that I have them in my "test" IQ database, and things are working well, I thought I would try copying/exporting the items from the test database to my "main" IQ file.
 
The problem is, the copy/export functions all pertain to Selected items.  So you have to display them in a grid and then select them before you can attempt the copy/export.  
 
I can't load all the 140,000 items I want to copy/export in a grid.  I selected "load all items" maybe an hour ago but the grid still hasn't loaded, and the hourglass is still showing.
 
I could do this export in several pieces, by loading fewer items into the grid, doing an export, then dong another batch, etc.

Item Editor increase maximum width of Folders and Tags pane

Submitted by KeithB on 2020/12/20 12:42
 I'd like to see the Folders and Tags pane of the item editor have a greater maximum width,
As shown, I can drag the bar to the left to make the numbers show, but I have no way of having the entire field/grid name and grid indicator arrow show for some of my grids.
 
By the way, thank you so much for the filtering boxes; I hope you keep them coming (maybe Manage Fields next?).

[solved] External editor no longer launching from doc pane

Submitted by Cyganet on 2020/12/18 05:18
Hi!

I have defined an external editor for markdown, and it used to be possible to launch it from the doc pane using the Edit Document (F2) command. Right now when I click the button on the toolbar, or click on the Doc Pane Menu > Edit > Edit Document, or press F2 it just toggles between View and Edit Modes. How to fix this?

Thanks!

New items cannot be shown in calendar

Submitted by Cyganet on 2020/12/15 11:35
Hi!

When I create new items with dates they no longer show up in the calendar. They're in the same grids that have all earlier items showing in the calendar, using the same date fields which have "in calendar by default" ticked. When I go to the ItemInCalendar field and manually tick it or click toggle value, the value doesn't "stick" - it keeps reverting back to unticked. I tried Database > Repair but that didn't change this behaviour. Has anything changed in how the calendar works?

I'm using InfoQube IM version 0.9.116m build 02/12/2020 11:23:20.

paste bug - highlighted text not replaced by pasted text

Submitted by jimspoon on 2020/12/11 15:19
 Using 116m.  I copied a file path to the clipboard.  Then I put an IQ cell into Edit Mode, and used Ctrl+A to highlight the existing contents.  Then Ctrl+C to paste the new text into the cell.  The Paste Special dialog appeared, asking if I wanted to paste Unicode or HTML format.  I pressed Enter to paste Unicode format.  The highlighted text was not replaced.  Rather the pasted text was prepended to the existing text.  Bug?
