Undo

I'll make my periodic recommendation for a fully functional "undo" command.  Pierre has said he'll put it on the list if there's enough interest but apparently there hasn't been.  

Earlier i tried to mark 300 items (ctrl-shift-m) but instead hit ctrl-shift-n, creating 300 unwanted subitems.  15 minutes later I'm still trying to unravel the damage as I accidentally permanently deleted some items while trying to delete the unwanted subitems.

Keyboard shortcut suggestions

Keyboard shortcut suggestions (Tools>Shortcuts>Customize>Keyboard):

1) Add "all" option under the command list like you have when you customize toolbars.  It's not always obvious which category a command falls under.  

2) Put commands in alphabetical order.  Right now, in long lists you have to go up and down the list several times to make sure you're not missing what you're looking for.

Hyperlink dialog - search in another grid, then use item text as hyperlink text

In Grid A, I have a field/column where I want to put a hyperlink to a specific item displayed in Grid B.  I want the hyperlink text shown in Grid A to be the same as the Item text of the target item in Grid B.  I forgot how I accomplished this, but I finally figured that I had right-clicked the target item in Grid B, Copy > Copy as Hyperlink, then returned to Grid A where I pasted the hyperlink in the appropriate cell.

Obsidian Sync: Option to enclose certain fields in quotes?

Obsidian Sync is working great. One thing that's not working: I have some IQ fields that start with "@". In Obsidian, to use fields beginning with "@" in YAML, you have to enclose the field name in quotes. (This happens automatically in Obsidian: if you use the non-source-code view to add such a field to the YAML, when you look at the source code, you will see that the quotes have been added.) So, for now, when IQ syncs such fields, this leads Obsidian to consider the YAML invalid.

Option to disable the floating red close button?

Would it be possible to add an option to disable the floating red close button that appears when one hovers their mouse over a tab?

I have made my tabs as small as possible, and there is now a greater risk that I will accidentally click the floating red close button when I attempt to click on a tab with the intent of viewing the tab.

Thanks for considering this suggestion.

 

auto-hidden pane header bar - always on top?

Should the header bar for an auto-hidden (collapsed, rolled-up) be always on top?  If I have both the Properties Pane and Doc Pane set to auto-hide, but then unhide the Doc Pane, the Properties Pane header bar is no longer visible if it is "under" the unhidden Doc Pane.  Seems like the Properties Pane header bar should always be visible so it can be moved, etc.  

Dark mode: Please use a slightly off-white as the default text color

I think currently IQ uses 100% white? Here is a recommendation from this guide:

Use “On” colors for text

“On” colors are colors that appear “on” top of components and key surfaces. They are typically used for text.

The default “on” colors for a dark theme is pure white (#FFFFFF). But #FFFFFF is a bright color and it would visually “vibrate” against dark backgrounds. That’s why Google Material design recommends using a slightly darker white:

Locking tab positions

Tabs should maintain their positions until manually moved, but they don't.  They periodically move on their own, often 1-3 positions.

I know I posted on this a few years ago and Pierre said he would look into it.  I can't remember seeing a follow up and can't find the original thread. 

This might be one of those grid things outside of Pierre's control.
