Oh dear, how do I fix it? I suppose scaling-related + font size issues...

Hi Left !
 
Best is probably to clean up the view. Press Ctrl+A twice and hit Delete
Then press Home to center the view and zoom to 100%
 
Finally, select a few items and copy / paste to the view. You can then move / spread / pile the cards (i.e. items)

Thanks, I tried that; but the card title is still unreadable as shown in the above screenshot, even when there is only a single card in the entire Card View. (Yes, zoom is at 100%.)

OK...
  1. What is your Windows display scaling setting ?
  2. If you turn off IQ's scaling option (1.6.18), does it work as expected ?
  3. What is the font used ?  (1.6.1, 1.6.2)
  4. If the card header height was bigger, would that solve it ? Are the cards content OK ?
    (i.e. provide a better screen shot, showing a single card with content, zoom at 100%)

Windows scaling is at 175% (very large monitor), the UI font is "Nina", size: 10 (1.6.1/2, but that's not the font on the card, I think that's Cadman, based on the grid the card view is set to?).
 
Yes, the problem is only with the header height, the content of the card is fine.

After some tests, I find that the System Enhanced scaling option is useful when display scaling is 125% and 200% or above...
As yours is 175%, perhaps try disabling it and report back
 
[edit] you're correct that the font used by Card View is not the UI font, but the default grid font. I'll fix that in the next release

Fixed in v116j
  • Fixed: Card View: Card header height was fixed at 20px, now depends on the font size

That's great, thanks.
 
However, I came across another problem when trying to follow your advice above. Turns out, I no longer have access to the High DPI settings for InfoQube.exe in version v116i - that part of dialog is greyed out. No idea why, it works fine for a handful of other programs I've tried:
 
 

I wonder why all the card view I try are empty?

 

I select some notes with html text and plain text but when I hit card view they are always empty.

 

Thanks

Oh, so the already established notes and data in the grid don't necessarily display in the card view. One must create cards in the card view.

I did read the doc but was under the impression that the records in the grid would automagically display in the card view like a corkboard in Scrivener or some such application.

Ok, I can live with that.

 

Oh, wait! I see what you mean. I can actually copy them to the card view, I can live with THAT!

 

Thanks

Part of the idea, is that because it is a 2-D area, you can collect items (cards) from a number of places, not just the associated grid

Once there are cards in the Card view, items added to the grid will automatically show up there as well
