dont know - this could be a bug

 

With some grids/fields, typing in a cell that has focus goes automatically to edit mode (behaviour #1)

with others, typing in a cell that has focus moves the focus to a cell that starts with whatever you've typed (i.e. search as opposed to edit mode) (behaviour #2)

 

Now,

I've noticed that this can vary from grid to grid with the same field -

e.g. my field "BillingNumber" has behaviour #1 in one grid and bahaviour #2 in another

 

 

Is this a grid specific setting ? (or a bug?)

could it possibly be related to the setting which dictates whether typing adds text to cell or replaces text in cell (cant for the life of me find that setting anywhere...)
 

Pierre (or anyone) As i remember IQ is portable? Does that mean I can unzip the program onto a card along with the data file & work off that card on my laptop. Will be traveling next week, thought I'd play around. Tks.

Hi Pierre,

You've mentioned in one of my posts regarding Parents and GParents that it was possible to add a Great-GParent field.

Is this a major hassle for you or something easy for the next release?

After all Great Grand Parents are a fact of life, why not in software too :-)

Seriously, I could really use them.

I am beginning to feel more at home with SQLNotes. Quite deep, not so easy at first.

 

 

Thank you.

When there is individual or multiple word formatting in a field such as <B>InfoCube</B> it looks fine until you get in that field for editing, then it looks like that.

If I have several, here and there, formatted words and tabs you are going to be a little confuse and I like to ask you if this is a permanent behavior

or a Beta issue. I do a lot of text editing and formatting,  it is important to me (serial numbers, Surfaces values, equations etc.)

 

I have never seen this in any outliners or other programs actually. Maybe there is an advantage but I can't figure it out.

 

Also how do I apply a Color to a word(s) in the middle of a sentence? (hopefully is not the same as above... :-)

 

Thank you Pierre.

This proves to be a very challenging task. I'm trying to copy several items (with hierarchies, one or two fields with inheritance on, etc.) from one database to another (need to share some stuff with a co-worker)  and it just freezes the application -- waited for half an hour, and nothing happens..

create item

select text in item / right click / click link

drag / drop file from desktop onto lower right hand boxed text area that sez "you can drop an outlook object [...] here..."

program unexpected close

 

I know that's not where i'm supposed to drag / drop there but that's what it sez to do U &U this is what happens.

 

Also after creating link to file, if file location changes, link no longer functions, lies there like a lox & there is no error msg like "lost link / file moved" or something

 

bumping

I am entering data with  "Item>Insert ...>Insert Tab" and the Field display in a slight different way based on just being there on the grid or activated for editing.

I have to make a choice: either adjust the text to look right on Edit mode or on just Display mode.

I'm assuming ItemHasHTML is hardcoded. If I create a field 'ItemHasURL' & give it the same properties it does not function the same way.

I am working to generate reports in SQLNote trying to eliminate in part FileMaker.

I filter data by Dates. So far I can get the range that I need and I can see the Context Parents.

The challenge is that without the Upper Parent is not possible to establish the larger context of the report.

 

The Pivot table is not working because in this case we are using only 0ne Field with Sub-Items for everything except Numbers values and Dates.

 

It would be great to choose a Upper Context Parent "Level" so that we can be drill as deep as we need working with Filter on any Source Data.

Or maybe it can be done but I have really no clue after going around for a couple of hours.

 

I am trying different data structures to get what I need in order to migrate my databases into SQLNotes.
