Cell in edit mode goes dark blue

Submitted by Tom on 2020/05/12 18:11
Relatively new portable install (115d); newish file -- three days old:
 
I changed the highlighting for the even lines in the grid. After this, when I go to edit a field, it goes dark blue -- I'm unable to read anything.
Pretty sure I didnt change any other setting today (most, maybe all other settings are default).
 
 
 
Problem disappears when I turn off the WYSIWYG editor.
FWIW I'm pretty sure I didnt even turn the WYSIWYG on -- it's not on by default in a new blank file and I'm just writing plain text.

Spell Checking not working - InfoQube Outliner v115d

Submitted by carloscadu on 2020/05/12 15:15
 Hi,
 
The Spell Checking option is turned off by default in InfoQube Outliner v115d.
Although I turned it on, the setting is not applied by IQ Outliner.
Every time I enter "Options" the box is unchecked, the setting is not being retained. 
I performed the same test using the regular IQ IM v115d, and the Spell Checking setting is working properly.
Is IQ Outliner spell checking buggy? 
Could the Spell Checking be turned on by default, like IQ IM?
 
Thank you,
Carlos
 

[fixed] Import emails slow?

Submitted by Cyganet on 2020/05/12 05:56
Hi everyone,
 
I have just set up EmailToIQ and it's fantastic.  I have it set up to not auto-poll nor auto-import.  However, when I click on the button in the status bar to poll, it's very slow to respond, and I keep clicking to get it to update.  And once I have a green icon, I need to click many (2, 5, 8, ...?) times before it will import my emails.  Is this a bug, or do I need to change a setting somewhere?

Thank you!

How do I import data into fields that is assigned to existing items?

Submitted by Cyganet on 2020/05/11 12:35
Hello everyone,
 
I've been looking at importing data via CSV files, for my use case of creating a personal CRM.  I want to import data from various old sources into my database.  To start, I have an excel file containing names, email addresses, etc.  The first time I import this list, each item gets created and assigned an Item ID.  So far so good.  Now I want to import additional data to these items, and that's where I'm getting stuck.
 
If I have a second list containing other or updated information related to the same names, I want to be able to assign them to the right Item IDs.  I can get the right Item IDs by exporting the InfoQube grid, so I know which ID matches which name, and get the information properly lined up inside excel and the CSV file.  However, the import CSV function will not allow me to add/update existing information having IDItem as one of the import fields. 

Google Calendar Events cleanup after deleting Google link.

Submitted by lbw2112 on 2020/05/11 12:12
 Hi,
  A few weeks ago I was experimenting with Google sync.  I had the sync type at "View/Edit Events".  I decided I didn't want to use it in IQ until later.  After I was finished experimenting I deleted the Google link and now when I was cleaning up my database I noticed in properties I had over 500 events.  I was trying to clear these out but noticed they weren't "Items" and found in the manual under "Events not linked to an item" and how it can only be viewed in calendar and not in grids and other UI.  
 
I was going month by month deleting them and think I got them all (all I can see anyway, and that's even checking many years previous) but it still shows I have over 500 events in properties.
 
My question is this, is there a way to view all events in a list or somewhere or just how do I get rid of them since they're not items.
To be clea

Speed of keyboard navigation in the grid

Submitted by LeftEccoForIQ on 2020/05/10 08:43
When I use the up and down arrow keys to navigate up and down items in the grid, this happens rather very slowly and when I hold down one of the arrow keys for a while and the keystrokes are buffered, it often happens that the cursor keeps on going up or down for a long time after I let go of the key. My hardware is above average, I would say, so I'm wondering if there is anything you could do to make this type of navigation more usable. Maybe a few milliseconds' delay could be implemented to check if the focus moves on to another item before updating the properties pane and whatever else IQ does under the hood when a new item receives focus?
 
Cheers!

'Flickering' of the grid when moving items via keyboard shortcuts

Submitted by LeftEccoForIQ on 2020/05/10 08:25
A very minor quibble: In any of my grids when the items extend beyond the bottom of the visible area so that a scrollbar is shown for the grid, when I scroll the bar so that it is not quite at the top but a single notch (drag bar with the mouse or do a single downward click with the scroll wheel) down from the topmost position, when I then use Alt-Up or Alt-Down to move items around, some nasty up and down-scrolling will occur in the grid each time the item is moved up or down a spot.
