The page that KeithB posted on setting up an icon for an item w HTML content -- link to nonexistent node ID 2033 -- was quite interesting.

I'm still left w a couple of questions:

 

(1) is there any particular place that icons have to be stored. See icons

(2) do they have to be of a particular format, i.e. gif, png, etc. Some icons are attached.

(3) has the export syntax for icons been fixed. See Icons in item don't export

(4) I don't understand the relationship between the names that are available w the list of icons that are already named here -- link to nonexistent node ID 738 --

Hi there,

 

I have still some doubts regarding the file linking in IQ...Hopefully you can help...I will explain my doubts with an example:

 

In my case, I often work in small teams on different projects, which means we create a common directory in which we store all project-related files. As we are on-site at the client, we use a directory on a local "netbook server". Returning to our office, we put the files on our office server in a different archiving directory.

 

Using IQ, I would like to link the files stored on-site on the netbook directory. However, as those files are moved to the archive server and deleted on the netbook, IQ should modify the links to the new  file locations.. Is this technically possible?

From properties pane

select one of your forms that contains NO DEFAULT DATA (I used contact form for this experiment)

Select Form of choice to open it

Click left icon to provide new item via form

Form contains data from some other source

 

In the search dialogue, the "shown in" field often stays empty. Does it still only show the items that are actually visible in the respective grid because they are currently opened?

 

I think there have been some discussions on that this field should show all items included in the grid, not only the currently opened ones.. Are there technical restrictions that make this not possible or is this change in the development pipeline?

 

Thank you for feedback! Regards, Thorsten

 

PS: It would be nice if one could see if IQ has finished searching or how long it still takes to search all items.. (i.e. with a progress bar).

 

 

Another issue:

Upon the launch of IQ, the first (automatically) opened grid does not show any formatting although some of the lines are in bold. If I duplicate the grid or open a second, third, etc. one, the formatting is shown correctly. Therefore this is no problem of lost formatting, it simply does not appear in the first opened grid after launch.

 

This problem has been existing in all prior versions that I remember (at least a year or so..), so I would be happy to see this solved. Anybody else having this problem?

 

Best regards, Thorsten

 

Hi there,

 

in my password protected database there is a "feature" which is a bit annoying. Each time I click on Pivot table, IQ asks me to enter the password, and it asks even 2 times!

 

This "feature" has been that way for many versions, and it is quite annoying if you use pivot tables more than seldomly...It seems to be independent of the computer configuration as I experience the same behaviour on two different laptops.

 

Anybody has the same problem? Pierre, do you have an idea how to fix this?

Thanks a lot!

Thorsten

 

My limited style of use of IQ shows up whenever I'm doing something different !

 

I want to be able to see all the text in a multiline field - currently only one line shows (which I find good)

The only way I have found to show the text is via the tooltip or when I put the cell into edit mode.

These are both awkward I find.

 

Is there any other way?

 

Ideally I'd like a shortcut (e.g. F8) that would toggle-expand the cell to show all it's contents.

That way I can move quickly up down the grid with arrows etc and easily show/hide full cell contents when I want.

 

I am confused about the "Sort" option listed under "Manage Grids."  Am I correct in assuming that all I have to do is type in the name of a field, and the grid willl always be sorted on that field? If so, I must be doing something wrong. It does not work here.

 

Thank  you for your help.

Weird link causing problem in web-export :) - notice the www in the middle of the link !!

 

IDEA:

the ability to add info to a field of choice in the web clipping dialogue -

I was thinking of a text field.

 

==> Maybe this could be done via the 'Other Fields' box - e.g. [Text in square brackets after the fieldname gets added to that field?]

 

LOGIC:

for when you dont want too much (or varied) info in the item field, but the surplus info is not really enough to justify using the HTML pane (or you want to keep all the info in the grid for clarity &/or for simple export)

 

Scenario:
