Withdrawn as of ActiveX issue here. |
Promote 2 Demote | Same conversation behaviour as in NotesIt would be nice if you had the same conversation mode in iNotes like the one you have in Notes.
iNotes has the mail threads, but only through 1 view and it is not possible to expand/collapse. |
Promote 11 Demote | Make dialog boxes resizableFor instance, when you right-click a mail to send it to a folder, a dialog box pops up with your different folders. Noticed how small this is? And not possible to resize whatsoever?
Not fixed in 9.0 by the way. |
Promote 2 Demote | Make the Traveler data easily exportable in HA modeNever been asked by management to have a report on the Traveler stats (users, devices, OS) ?

Promote 10 Demote | Ease the use of doc links in iNotesIt would be nice, as people are using more and more iNotes over Notes, to have the 'Copy as doc link' functionality of Notes with the same ease in iNotes. I mean, in a standard way. No scripting or mail template customization (again). |
Promote 5 Demote | Extend the 'User detail' info of a databaseCurrently it only shows who has read, written or deleted documents but you cannot make out which documents were involved.

Promote 11 Demote | Have an option 'hide in type-ahead' for groups (& regular contacts)This does already exist in 8.5.3 for recent contacts but not for groups (nor regular contacts).

Promote 15 Demote | Make Sametime business card info exportable or copiableWhen I hover on a user in the Sametime embedded client I can see a person's business card.

I feel as if efforts to push enhancement requests are scattered between different systems and thus have less weight each on their side. Any bridges possible? |
Promote 9 Demote | Enhance recent contacts' management to clean-up wrong entriesUp till now the central management of the recent contacts is rather limited. You can activate some options via policy or use notes.ini settings (such as DPABRemoveRule and DPABRemoveRuleSetting) for instance but it is hard to clean-up or exclude entries from a central place. I imagine 2 systems : ... |

Promote 29 Demote | Clean-up recent contacts if not used for X daysUp til Notes 8.5.3 when you use the 'Recent Contacts' feature, they keep pilling up forever.

Promote 21 Demote | Mail rules : option to 'Move to top/bottom' and even better : drag a rule to a levelWhen you create a new mail rule you'll find it at the end of the rules' list. Moving it up is incredibly time-consuming if you have a bunch of rules. So one option would be to move a rule directly to the top/bottom level. But an even better option would be ... |
Promote 28 Demote | Workspace utility : clean-up dead application links / iconsI create a lot of local databases (copies, ...) for instance for testing. It makes my workspace quite a mess as the links are not cleaned up when those copies are deleted.

Promote 21 Demote | Improve cluster analysis (greatly!)Maintaining a cluster is rather tedious. A cluster analysis gives you only very basic information and actions :
no document count comparison,
no creation of missing replicas,
no quota sync,
information showing could be greatly improved (via xPages?)
other ideas ? |
Promote 10 Demote | Show release dates of LN Language Groups on IBM Fix List site (or other)The IBM Notes/Domino fix list (http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/r5fixlist.nsf/%28Progress%29/) already gives an idea of the release dates of clients but not of their different language "spin-offs".
