Hi Pierre, hope you're having a quiet, restful, peaceful long weekend -

On my end, making use of the time to do some experimenting in Card View and have a few questions:

Continuation of my new computer saga.  I followed the directions to transfer settings and this worked, for the most part.

But my custom colors were NOT transferred and that has me worried because my notes heavily rely on assigned colors (mostly fill colors).

Is there any chance I could lose my custom color assignments in this process? 

1) Item has custom fill color "x" but "x" is no longer in the options settings

2) Item presumably displays with no fill color (or does it default to some nearby color?)

I had to replace my computer (again). 

1) Should I switch to the portable version?  I believe Pierre recommends that but I've used the full install for several years.  When I tried the portable version I had problems with losing my toolbar set up after updates (undoubtedly, my fault).

2) I still have my old C drive installation.  Can I recover settings from that? (toolbars, options settings, custom colors)

I am an ECCO user that is new to IQ and would like to have input on how to most efficiently set up IQ. I almost exclusively use ECCO as an outliner. In ECCO I
established a file for each subject. Each file would have a small number of related Notepads. The files would be kept in related folders on my computer. I am
questioning whether to use this method with IQ or to just have one IQ file with all my grids for all subjects. I could then group the grids in the one file. I

I wanted to verify that there are no direct ways to search my database for doc pane content, if the doc pane content is a htm or an MHT file.

It appears the available searches would search for the characters in the filename of the ItemHTMLFile only.

Am I am correct in that you have to use a file utility that searches within files (everything, agent ransack/file locator pro)?

Is there any way of changing font settings for MHT files? I'd like to increase the font size a little.

I know I can assign a CSS file to the item, but those changes don't stick: if I move away from the item and then back, the CSS file has to be assigned again. So I was hoping there might be a more fundamental way than CSS of setting font properties.

I have an item showing up in a grid it shouldn't be in, and it won't go away.

1) Item is a TLI.  No parents anywhere.
2) Item is not assigned to the grid (grid field is unchecked).

3) In the Properties pane, under "shown in", the current gird IS listed, even though the item is not assigned to it.

Things I've tried:

1) Re-assign, un-assign to the grid field using properties pane, form, and field column.  Repeat and refresh many times.

2) Reboot file

How do I find the location of a file linked in InfoQube?

Can't find the information in any of the dialogues nor anything about it in the manual. 

I don't want to launch the file; I want to know where it's located in the file manager.

Seems like this info should be available in the Hyperlink dialogue.  Or add it in the info pop-up window (along with my other suggested improvements - ha).

Is there a short form for a source bar filter like this:

[FileName] LIKE "*.jp*g" OR [FileName] LIKE "*.png" OR [FileName] LIKE "*.bmp"

Perhaps something like
[FileName] LIKE "*.jp*g"|"*.png"|"*.bmp"

or

[FileName] LIKE "*\.[(jp*g)(png)(bmp)]"

Hi,

I know I can drag&drop into a new item.
How do I paste text via the keyboard as a new item in a grid preferably being able to also select Paste as Plain Text

Thanks
