Why am I getting grid load error message?

1) Grid "Ref">Save as>Ref-2

2) Keep Ref grid source "Ref"

3) Change Ref-2 source to "Ref-2"

I've done the above sequence for grids many times without a problem.  But this time, every time I open the "Ref" grid, I get this message:

I click "OK" and the grid loads correctly.  What is causing this message and how do I make it go away?  

collecting all dates and filtering "today" and "now"

been having a lot of trouble with this filter:

First Id like to include items that have any date field (from different calendars)- NOT having to manually type each field in the filter. 

Then Id like to filter those that are 'today'. Trouble is that all these date fields are reoccuring. And the grid doesn't seem to recognize the reoccuring dates, so only the original date is found -not the reoccurance.

Id also like another that is NOW at THIS time...

 

Is there a way to accomplish this?

InfoQube is displaying images in URL field

How do I make InfoQube stop displaying the image in the URL field when I input a path to a jpg file.  This is what I'm getting:

When this happens, it won't let me delete the image in the URL field.  I end up having to delete the whole item.

It started doing this a few versions ago and I can't find an option to control this.

Hoisting

I'd like to know if it's possible to have two distinct lists available for hoisting, allowing me to easily toggle between which one is actively 'hoisted' at any given time.

Also Is it possible to save multiple 'hoisted' lists and then easily switch between them as needed?

Thanks for any advice.

 

How to move an item in fewer steps?

To move a subitem to another grid with a different parent, I do this:

1) Mark subitem in grid #1 (ctrl-m)

2) Navigate to new parent in grid #2 and assign subitem as child ctrl-shift-n)

3) Return to grid #1 and delete subitem from its original location.

How can I accomplish this in fewer steps?  Seems like there should be a way to skip step 3. 

Would also be nice if there were an option to just paste the item in grid #2 as a TLI (no parent).  

I couldn't find anything better in the user manual.

Font colors in dark mode when using background colors

Submitted by LM77 on 2025/06/29 02:16

When I use dark mode and change the background color (say, to red), the default font color (=Text Fore Color) changes from dark ("None") to white, rendering the resulting text extremely difficult to read (see Screenshot 1, attached).

I have found a workaround, by manually changing the Text Fore Color to Olive Green under such circumstances (see the last item in the grid in Screenshot 2, attached), but this is a bit cumbersome.

Is there any way to ensure by default that the Text Fore Color comes out readable when using dark mode and changing the background color?
