Example:

1) I have a long outline with different sections expanded to different levels.

2) I want to select a section of the outline and collapse it to one level, while leaving the rest of the outline unaffected.

3) Select items>ctrl-left arrow

4) This collapses only the first or last item in the selected list.  Remaining items remain expanded.

Shouldn't this method work for expanding/collapsing sections of an outline?

I know we can import OPML files into Infoqube into an existing IQ database, and that's great, but you might consider enabling IQ to become a default viewer/editor for OPML files.  Right now there doesn't seem to be a good modern app for this purpose -

Currently spacing between multiple lines within an item seems to be more or loss identical to the spacing between two items. A custom setting would be nice to have for me.

Thanks!

I know there are the open / close icons to the left of items already but personally, I'd appreciate a second visual indication at the other end that there are child items currently not visible. Would it be possible to add something like a '+' character or '...' at the end of the text displayed for an item when it is the parent of a folded subtree?

I think it would make outlines a good deal more readable

Many thanks!

It would be good if after reloading the latest version database from the sync folder, IQ would return to the same tab and display the same grid I was on, with the same subitem display and expansion state.  Maybe it does so for other grids, but it didn't for the Search grid.  After reloading, it went to some other tab.  The Search grid tab was still there, and after clicking it, it was displaying the same items as before, but I had to refresh the grid, and also do right-click, Sub-Items, Show All Sub-Items.

Here is a long-standing minor issue that keeps coming up for me. Let's say I am using a grid with columns, and I have a long paragraph of text in the 'Item' field. (This often happens when importing text, for example.) I scan through the paragraph, and decide where I want to split the item. I double-click to enter edit mode, but upon doing so, the wrapping/spacing of the paragraph changes, so I have to search again for the place where I had decided to split.

If I add some text to a field cell (e.g. item field) by typing it into the field, and then press the down key to move down one cell, the added typed text gets saved.   Even though I did not press Enter to save the edits.

However, if I Ctrl+V paste some additional text into the field (e.g. a link), and then press the down key to exit the cell, without first pressing the Enter key, the pasted text does not get saved.  Pasted text gets saved only if I press Enter.

Say you want to select multiple non-contiguous items in a grid to act on - to paste a value in a field(s), or to add/change a value in a field using the properties pane - would it make sense to enable the ctrl+up/down keys for such a non-contiguous selection?  I see that we can do this using Ctrl+click, but I like to have keyboard options whenever possible.

I see that Shift+up/down and Shift+left/right work to extend/contract selection.  I know that Ctrl+left/right is used for collapse/expand.

If a field has an auto-assign rule to apply a tag to an item (e.g. "AM:#ExampleTag=1", would it be a good idea to create the tag automatically if it does not already exist, when the rule is triggered?

This might make it easier to associate existing Y/N Fields with corresponding Tags.  I could go through my existing Y/N fields, and give each one an Auto-Assign rule to assign a tag corresponding to the Y/N field.  Then I could "touch" each of the Y/N fields to assign the tags.
