When performing searches for items that are child items, search always finds the items, but the "Shown In" column typically doesn't displays the grids in which they actually exist as child items (since they usually don't a value for the grid/s since they are a child item).

 

Is there a way for search to have the "shown in" column display grids where the items exist as child items?  After all, they are "shown in" those grids, aren't they :-)?

 

Thanks

I have an auto assignment rule so that whenever an item is created, it assigns an initial default value ("New") for a pop-up field I used across all items in the database.  Then as I work on those items further I adjust the pop-up value accordingly - "in progress", "closed" etc.

 

The problem I am encountering is if I later edit the item text, it keeps changing the pop-up value back to the initial default value of "new" per the auto assignment rule.  Is there a way to stop this from happening?  I am guessing there is :).

 

if not can this be adjusted in a future release?  I don't find this desirable behavior - it seems to me the auto assignment rule should apply only when an item is created.  Having it trigger every time an item is edited defeats the value (pun intended), I don't want items continually being returned to the initial value every time i edit them.

I had a skype conference today so I had entered a corresponding item with the title of "Skype".  Afterwards I double clicked on it to edit it and noticed that doing so caused Skype to maximize.  Wondering how this could be possible since I did not make the Item a program link of any type, I double clicked on other items, which (as expected), did nothing.  So then I created another item with the single word "Skype".  Sure enough, double clicking on it also maximized skype.

 

As cool as this is, any idea how/why that is happening?

 

Thanks

In the past I have been able to enter text in a Shift+F2 edit box, switch to another program using Alt+Tab, then switch back to the active edit box in IQ.  

 

Now when I attempt to do this in 91b, the Shift+F2 edit box is gone, the item is no longer active for editing, and I lose any of the changes I entered into the Shift+F2 edit box before I switched away.

 

I tried different files and different computers, same results.

 

However when I tried out 0.9.85a, I was able to switch from the active Shift+F2 edit box to another program and back, and the Shift+F2 edit box would still be active, and no content was lost. 

I selected several items and tried to join them using Ctrl+Shift+J.  (using 0.9.91b portable).

 

When I clicked OK, the top item disappeared (I lost the content in that item).  An error message appeared in the bottom right corner of IQ:

 

 

I experimented with different iqbases (sample file, empty file) and had the same problem.  I experimented with different versions of IQ, going back to 85a - same result.

 

Finally I discovered that the problem did not occur when I unchecked the "Delete Merged Item" box in the Join Items dialog.

 hi Pierre,
re:

If you create a dedicated grid for a project, when parent items from that dedicated grid appear in other grids with display mode set to outline, the items will do so without the context of a parent, since the "parent" is a dedicated grid.  So in the other grids it might not be clear what the items relate to.

 

One way to get around this when using a dedicated grid for a project is to still use a single parent item and if you don't want to see it just hoist all the children in the dedicated project grid.  Now the children will still show up with their parent item in other grids.

 

Anyhow, with the new "home" property for an item, I wondered if it would be feasible to add a grid setting that says "make this grid the parent item for all TLI home items that display in other grids".  So that when that grids home items show up in other grids that have display mode set to outline, that grid wou

I have some grids sorted by ItemCreated with the most recent items at the top.  As I add/work on new items I'd like them to appear at the top.  But AFAIK an item always has to be added after an existing item.  Of course then I can always hit refresh to get it to move to the top, but I wondered if there is a method I'm missing that allows the user to just insert a new item at the top?

 

Thanks

I am often working in a grid that I'd like to have open simultaneously with different views.  In one tab/pane I might have it hoisted as I am working on a particular item.  As I'm doing that I'd like to be able to have that same grid open in another pane where I am viewing it in a completely different way without any hoisting, perhaps with different sorting etc.

 

Thanks
