GUI question with source bar

Submitted by Jon on 2014/12/11 08:01
You can see a drop down box on the right when the source bar is hidden. Clicking on the down arrow activates a blank drop down. Is this supposed to be displayed?  If I click on the icon to the right of the drop down bow (the one to activate the source bar), everything seems to work as normal. Using the menu to activate/deactivate the source bar has the same GUI behavior. So my questions - is this box supposed to be there when the source bar is hidden? What is its purpose?

EDITED a few minutes later to cover up my stupid assumptions and to ask better questions.

Multi-Select List Options for a Field

Submitted by David_H on 2014/12/09 17:17
I'd like to create a couple of fields/columns for applying attributes to items, I would want to choose only ONE item for each column from a multi-select list.  Something like this:
 
"Item Type"
  • Action
  • Information
In other words, Item Type would be a column and Action OR Information would be the possible selections.  What would be the best way to do this.  I don't need complete directions, just an explanation of what function in IQ would be best to accomplish this and I'll read the documentation from there.
 
Thank you in advance.

Synchronisation to an external SQLite database

Submitted by gregory on 2014/12/09 10:29

 

I am trying to reproduce the work done notably by LucasD some years ago when he successfully integrated InfoQube with the SQLite database which underlies the Zotero reference management system.

The problem which I wish to report is that when I attempt to synchronise my IQbase with that SQLite database, absolutely nothing happens. There is no error message but nor is any data imported.

1.      What follows is the story of my investigation so far.

Unable to edit text in HTML pane

Submitted by Tom on 2014/12/02 13:18
 
If I write some text (or paste some text) in the HTML pane, move focus, and come back - I'm unable to edit.
I rarely use the HTML pane,
so maybe I'm missing something? But even then seems wrong...

Tested on Win7 x64 -- with a fresh portable IQ install (34A) -- with new sample file (with content)
EDIT //
forgot to say - still using IE9 (which is fully up to date)

Wish list

Hi Pierre:
 
Some outstanding things I hope to see included in IQ.
 
1. Printing: A fit to page width option. Perhaps you could bug the grid supplier again.
2. URI: You said this is relatively easy, so it would be nice to see it soon.
3. Pop up lists: It would be great to be able to select more than one entry as you can in Ecco Pro. Of course this would be an option to the existing behavior.
 
Thank you Pierre.

Infoqube Navigation

Submitted by David_H on 2014/11/23 00:36
I first tried IQ I'd guess almost 5 years ago.  Loved what it was doing but ultimately abandoned it due Not to the complexity, I have 0 issue with a program that caters to power users, but due to navigation issues.  When I use software I want to be able to get where I want quickly, and be able to group main selections in a meaningful fashion (especially when I'm going to have 50-100 folders/grids).  I've grabbed a screenshot from Zoot but could have grabbed one from any of a hundred other programs, Outlook, Evernote etc...
 
Notice how the navigation on the left which allows the user to group selections.  Will IQ ever see anything like this to group and access grids?
 
Thanks
