IQ freezes when getting Field Properties

Submitted by Alp on 2019/11/18 10:37
When I go to Tools > Manage Fields and right-click on a field to get "Show Field Values," "Scratch" tab opens but shows nothing and IQ freezes. This happens on the IQ file I have password protected. When I try the same steps on "Welcome" file, I don't encounter the problem. Removing password on my file has not eliminated the problem, though.
Thanks.

Calendar visuals

Submitted by LeftEccoForIQ on 2019/11/18 08:23
This mostly concerns the summary view of the calendar (i.e. when the time scale is hidden).

Currently events appear to be sorted as follows for each day (see screenshots attached):
1. recurring non-scheduled events
2. recurring scheduled events
3. non-recurring non-scheduled events
4. non-recurring scheduled events

This is very unintuitive. I'd very much favour all non-scheduled events at the top and all scheduled events at the bottom of the list, i.e. just to ignore recurrence with regard to order.

Also, to make this view more readable, could scheduled items be indented a little and / or the associated time rendered in bold print? A clearly visible horizontal divider between the non-scheduled ('tasks') and scheduled ('appointments') section of each day would also be helpful, I think.

Just my feelings‚ anyone welcome to chime in. Many thanks for considering!

 

Copy / paste issue

Submitted by WayneK on 2019/11/15 16:54
After updating from 114L to 114N patch:
 
1) Copy text from external source
2) Select InfoQube item and enter edit mode so external text can be pasted
3) Ctrl-v to paste text: no longer works correctly:  as soon as I depress "Ctrl" InfoQube exits edit mode;  if I then carry out paste, it replaces all the existing cell text with the new text instead of adding it at the end.
 
Don't know if this is a bug or some new option that has been added that causes the behavior.  I've been up and down options several times and can't find anything relevant.
 
I can't think of anything legitimate to explain this: merely depressing the ctrl key should not do anything until another key is depressed, since it's used in many shortcuts.
 
Side question: when I update to a version that has a patch, do

Entering {tab} when editing in grid?

Submitted by LeftEccoForIQ on 2019/11/13 02:57
Stupid question: How can I do this? I tried pressing the key, pressing Alt+009 on the numpad and using copy/paste from an editor but no success. I then tried the item editor, but even there it didn't seem to work. I could probably do it using HTML code? Ecco had a shortcut for entering tabs in items, I think (Ctrl-T), maybe we could use something like Shift-Ctrl-T in IQ? Thanks!
 
Edit: I then tried pasting a few tab-aligned lines from Word, but in IQ quite a few of them ended up out of alignment. Maybe it's just not a good approach for IQ items?

“X” to be clicked to close the grid tab is disappearing

 Hi,

 

Reporting a possible bug. I’m using IQ 0.9.114m.

As shown in the screencast (http://bit.ly/2KafYWk), the “X” to be clicked in order to close the grid tab is disappearing when I hover over the mouse on it, being impossible to close the grid tab through this method.

If you need further information, just let me know.

 

Best,

Carlos

 

Run-Time Error Crash

Submitted by WayneK on 2019/11/11 10:57
Don't know if this will be helpful since it's not reproducible but I've had maybe 5-6 program crashes while working with tags.  Doesn't happen often (once every couple of weeks). 
 
It's always the same sequence:
 
1) Open tags grid and select tag item
 
2) Hit return to create new tag
 
3) Error message pops up: Run-time error xxxxxx
(Error message disappears before I'm able to do a screen capture)
 
4) All open tabs close one by one, followed by the program.
 
5) On re-start, all open tabs are restored with nothing lost
