I know we have talked about this before, but is there a reason we still don't have a Duplicate Grid option under Manage Grids? It sure would be really useful. You could use grid variations to do a lot of things, especially combined with multiple tabs.

 

Thanks,

W4 seems to have lots of great things in it, so I thought I would create a thread to track them (and also wonder when we get this W4 awesomeness)...

 

It seems to have some key fixes in it (for me at least :), some of which Pierre reported fixed a month ago. These are the ones I know off the top of my head (I'm updating as I see more)....

 

 

Can't wait :).

One thing I would love to see is for IQ to take better advantage of our wide screen monitors by rolling over grid contents to an additional panes under the same tab.

 

What I am talking about is called multiple-columns in Microsoft Word, but since columns is taken I am using the term pane to describe the columns and rows combined. For example, here is multiple columns in Word:

 

The idea is simple, if you have lots of horizontal space (and most of us do these days with widescreen laptops and monitors) it would be great to use that space by continue the tab's contents into another column.

 

For example, if I have the following Grid

 

There's a longstanding problem - bug? - associated with setting the date of an item (at least on my machine - Windows 7, Access 2010 installed). I can set the date of an item: e.g. using <CTRL>+M. However, if I attempt to edit the date, using for example <F2>, or even simply tabbing to the field and pressing <Enter>: the grid freezes completely. The only way forward is then to close and reopen the grid. I have to assume that this is something specific to my machine. It is not IQbase-specific: the problem occurs on a completely new IQbase. Any ideas?

[Invoice] and [itemcolor is &H99CCFF]

 

field = invoice

field = ItemColor

 

Doesn't seem to work w or w/o brackets

I use the "Copy selected email to IQ" button in Thunderbird to save emails. I hardly ever look at them in IQ - but I noticed lately that when one mail is selected & copied to IQ, the pop-up messages says two email saved to IQ.

 

 

I notice now that if I forward an email I get this (date/time sent) in the header -

Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2011 15:45:23 +0100

the 15:45:23 is correct in this example but I dont know what the +0100 means - Any ideas there?

 

Maybe it's a bug with Thunderbird?

FWIW my timezone is GMT+1

 

...and how do I manually sort my items so that it "holds"?

 

I keep changing my items manually, but as soon as I hit "Refresh" they go back to some order that I do not want and have not applied, no matter how many times I Save the grid.

 

Same thing when I close and reopen the file. I am in database which includes the sample data.

 

Hope somebody will help, thanks!

I think we discussed that at some point (maybe was it implemented but I can't find it ??) 

 

Right now, when hovering the mouse cursor over a field in a grid, a popup appears giving some info (those infos -- and more -- are available with the "info" function too in the contextual menu).

 

I often want to quickly see the creation date. I know that what one wants to see is most often contextual, so... what about either :

 

1- an option (In the... "Options") to configure what's seen in these popups/notification pane

2- a new column in the fields property dialog ("show in notification pane")  with check boxes for each field, to turn display on or off... Or something Iike that.

 

Hi IQ Users,
