[SOLVED] Lost item

Submitted by Tom on 2017/10/20 07:42
No idea what's going on here -- I can find a file and get it to show in correct grid (via search), but as soon as I remove the hoist it disappears.
EDIT//
at least half user error:
the 'Files' item had a space before the text in the 'Project' field (not sure why it was shown as being in the relevant grid at all - it must have been in there 'properly' at some stage -- Pierre, feel free to delete this thread if you want)
//EDIT
 
I search for the item 'Files' because I cant find it in the 'Magheracar' grid where it's supposed to be.
I find the item via search, and click on the link to the 'Magheracar' grid --
 

Minor Suggestion: pasting multiple items

Submitted by WayneK on 2017/10/19 20:09
Description:
 
1) Copy list from source
2) Paste list in InfoQube, creating a new item for each list item (ctrl-v; "2")
 
Problem:
 
Each time a list is pasted, InfoQube scrolls to the top of the page.  Not a huge problem, obviously, but annoying when you're doing many lists as you have scroll back down several pages after each paste
 
Suggested Solution:
 
InfoQube should maintain the current view when a list is pasted.  View could center on the first or last item of the pasted list, or anywhere in that vicinity (just don't scroll to the top of the page each time).

What happened to tool bars icons?

Submitted by WayneK on 2017/10/18 01:26
I opened the standard file I use for templates and found that many of the toolbar icons were missing.  I don't understand how that happened.  I thought I understood toolbar settings are determined by the last file closed.  If I have all files set up with the same toolbar layouts and don't make any changes, then all files (including new ones) should keep that layout.
 
I don't know why it lost the toolbar layout but since it was just one file, I decided to re-create the layout manually.  I pulled up the "all commands" list and found that the tool icons have apparently been changed.
 
1) There's no longer an icon for "save file" (only "save as").  If I drag the "save" tool to my header it inserts a labeled icon ("Save") which takes up too much space.
 
2) There's no longer a command to re-number items.
 
3) The

YOUTUBE

I am back after many years using Ecco ready to give infoqube another try. Today I went to the YouTube channel and saw the video on "homepage" 
 
I think it is a great idea to use YouTube to give an introduction to the way the program is used. However I was totally unable to grasp the purpose of showing how to use the homepage. 
 
 I understand what a two pane outliner is, and I understand what a single pane outliner is, and I think both of those formats have obvious uses to a lot of people.

IQ's good-looks: Theme Color

Submitted by Tom on 2017/10/16 08:25
Now that IQ is looking really great, as well as being really great :-)  I want to write about the theme colour.
(Just in case: in the past there were multiple themes -- I believe there's only one now?)
 
I do like the blue-orange theme, but there's a problem with it:
it clashes badly with almost all the default item highlight colours.

Reproducible Crash + Query

Submitted by Tom on 2017/10/06 08:34
#1) Perennial Question:
how do I force IQ to start a) with no layout loaded?
b) with no file loaded [I see starting IQ while keeping Shift pressed does this]
 
 
#2) Reproducible crash:
 
IQ is set to start with last file + Layout
 
To reproduce crash (I'm not sure which elements are important here):
 
"Dual pane" layout as per screenshot
Two HTML panes:
pane #1 is loced to a particular item
pane #2 is set to auto-hide
