How to automatically re-size grid images?

Is there any way to get InfoQube to re-size an image automatically so it fits inside an item's borders? 

I like to display images in the grid using copy/paste of a screenshot.  I want the image to be contained within the Item column.  

Accomplishing this usually takes several steps as the image comes in way oversized and overlaps adjacent columns.  

I have to go to another program where I paste the image, re-size it manually, and do the screen cap again.  Sometimes I have to do this several times to get the size I want.

How do I add columns to an existing column group?

I couldn't find this in the manual.  I did what I thought was the logical thing: selected the existing column group and also the new columns I wanted to add.  

This created a new column group with just the new columns and wiped out my whole existing column set.  The columns disappeared.  "Add column" showed they were still assigned to the grid and "Hidden columns" showed they weren't hidden.  But they were nowhere to be found.

Looks like you have to ungroup the existing set, then create a new group that includes the new columns.

Launching tags from Tags grid

1) Is there any way to launch tags directly from the tags grid? 

2) Can I display the Tags field in the Tags grid and assign tags to themselves so I can launch them from the Tags grid? 
 

#2 works but it's a big job to manually assign everything and I don't know if it would cause unforeseen problems.

I'm not asking for a new feature, just what's available now that I might not be seeing.  I re-read the manual and didn't find anything there.  Was hoping the TagID column would display links like the Tags field does, but it doesn't.

How do I Delete Old Alerts?

I have an item that repeats once/day and I have set the alarm at the time.

I have changed the time several times and I now have a lot of alerts including the old alert times.
I have tried to select "Dismiss: All Reminders" for the old times, but it doesn't help. They keep coming back.

I only want to delete the old alert times (not the item).

I seem to have lost (or forgoten) how to set a 8 day view in the calendar. This is especially embarrassing as I was the one who actually suggested it in the first place. Does anyone know how this is achieved I know that it was done with something on the calendar toolbar but I don't seem to have that available right now. Any help would be appreciated

Keyboard shortcut problems

How do I delete an unwanted keyboard shortcut?  My "find" shortcut "ctrl-F" got disabled because the last update added another command with the same shortcut (omnibox).  

I've been going round and round trying to figure out how to delete the unwanted omnibox shortcut.  The customize keyboard commands aren't making it any easier.

Tools>Keyboard Shortcuts>Customize>Keyboard>Category

1) There is no "all commands" category (that I can see).  You're left having to guess which category a command might be in.  

Many grids

I like to use charts to display info in a spreadsheet format - eg:

Different charts require different column widths, therefore you cannot consolidate your charts in one grid.  Excel has the same issue.

The only solution I see is creating a new grid for each chart.  This will obviously result in many grids (probably 200-300 for my current project).
