🚀 Platform improvements for week 17hotfix

Hi everyone!We’ve released the following platform improvements this week: IAM & SF (All supported versions) 20240426 - Aggregation expression dependency Aggregations derived from expression columns were disappearing after filters were applied to the grid. This has been fixed so that the behaviour of the aggregations are consistent. SF (All supported versions) 20240426 - Lock branch whilst merging base models into work models When a base model supplied a table, a column and had the look-up display column set up for a reference, trigger code would set the look-up display column of the table before the actual column was added to the work model. This has been corrected. IAM 2024.1 20240423 - Migrate classic user preferences It was possible for the migration to fail when if multiple applications for the same model and branch are present and users of these applications have user preferences for cubes. This has been fixed.

Go to row not working on different pages

Hello! I have noticed that, sometimes, when a screen has pages, the “Go to row” process action does not work if the record is saved with a custom task on a different page than the one that is opened.For example, now i have the first page opened. If the record is saved on the second one, the focus from “Go to row” is not going to be put on the record.Is there a different way to select a row even if it is on another page?

I think that it would be good to have a switch to put the Universal web interface in maintenance mode, and even better to be able to show messages to users that this is going to happen.

Getting a global vertical scrollbar for my screen(types)

Hi all,I'm working on building a screen type with a lot of information on the screen in the form of tables (5) and a form (1). During the design phase, it was determined that the page is vertically oriented and that users should be able to scroll through it at the page level (not at the table level). We assumed that the vertical scrollbar would automatically be added when you put 'too many elements' on the page, but this is not the case, and that's where my problem lies. I would like to have the scrollbar, but I'm not sure how, and I've already tried several things. Can someone point me in the right direction? I’ve added a sketch for clarity.ps. Im on the most recent version of thinkwise and using the universal GUI.Thanks in advance!

Provide error message in extra column in failed rows export resulting from import wizardNew

We frequently use the import wizard to import files into lists. We tend to use a view here with an instead of trigger, so we can resolve lookups through the view, validate the data and automatically map the column names with the import wizard. This all works tremendously well, but we would like to add something extra. If rows fail in the import wizard, you can export them later. Unfortunately, what you can't see is why these rows failed. They are color-coded, but you can't display a textual explanation for them. We would like to be able to use the tsf_send_message to return a message, which is updated with the corresponding row in the export with failed records. This way, an end user can see more clearly what needs to be changed and can then try to re-import the export with failed rows.This is just a possible solution, if there is a better idea to inform a user of the errors, without getting a popup for each row or aborting an import with an error message, that would be very nice.

Allow the context procedure to overrule the SF settings.Needs feedback

At this moment, if I state in the SF that a detail is not visible, the parameter to make it visible is not offered to the context procedure, and the settings in the SF database always win.This has 2 disadvantages;1) If we change the visibility in the SF and forget to recompile the context procedure, we get an error.2) If the internet is slow, or something goes wrong the user can see tabs, the user should not see. ( We have one place where we switch between 10 tabs … ).It would be nice to have 3 or 4 states; show, don’t show, or only show when the context stored procedure wants it, with “this” as default ... 4 states would be possible with one additional checkbox.This is kind of related to my previous idea, but technically requires more. User preferences can differ, and I like to build by enabling things, instead of disabling things. ( We have a row based security on top of the Thinkwise security… that is an important reason why I would like to have the possibility to only show things w

How to auto-submit a task with Barcode field

Multiple keys to select from detail in relationshipNeeds feedback

I was just reading “filtering in a pivot grid”, and remembered that I had this Idea.If you have a list and a detail, you can select multiple items in the list, but the detail is only linked to the main focus item.I have a use case in which it would be great if you could expand this to, this key or … that key, or …, etc.With a filter it is possible to have a filter to select multiple options, but this could be less clear to the user, and the fact that it is not possible to make the filter mandatory makes that we can’t use this option. We have a large “fact table”, and I’m looking for a clear way in which a user can select some options to query, without ever selecting everything. The user should not start with everything, but with nothing. If you have a graph, and 1000 categories, you don’t want to start with “show everything”.If the graph would be a detail of a list with categories, the user could select one category and see the graph, or use the control key to select more.

A little improvement of the tsf_user() functionNeeds feedback

I found 2 problems with the tsf_user function;If I use the function as DBA (with a direct login to the database) the function gives a guid. The function can confuse the SQL-Server query optimizer with the result that the function gets executed multiple times.As a workaround I replaced the function by a view, which checks if the CONTEXT_INFO value isn’t a GUID, and an additional check whether the user returned is actually present in our user table.I did not investigate what it would do with the performance when I made the function schema bound, but the view is much faster… and I think that making the function schema bound might give the same result. ( It would not bind to anything, but SQL-Server might understand that there is no need to evaluate the function more then once ).

Automatically assigning validations within feature branchesNew

In our project, we employ feature branches where each developer works on their own feature. From a quality perspective, we aim for each developer to be accountable for all pending validations within their branch.Therefore, we seek to automatically assign all new validations within the branch to the developer of that branch if they are not already allocated. It would be practical to specify this on a per-branch basis, as there may be instances where multiple developers are working within a single branch.

Automatically assigning validation to the one that created or mutated the related object.New

Inspired by this idea: Automatically assigning validation to the user that created or mutated the related object. In most of the cases that would make sense.

Why are all indexes rebuilt during a smart upgrade

We currently use the Thinkwise 2023.3 product. It seems that in this version all indexes are being rebuilt when doing a smart upgrade.In the current version of our application only one new table is introduced, but it takes much longer than in the previous version of the SF (2023.1) we used. Hundreds if of indexes are created, so the upgrade takes longer than expected.Anybody else have experienced this? Is this new in this version and if so, why? Can't it be “smarter”?

Windows Security Update (KB5035853) errors

Hi everyone,The latest Windows security update (KB5035853) has been linked to instances of Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors for Windows 11 users. These errors can also occur when using the Thinkwise Windows GUI.More information here: Windows 11 Update Causing Serious Problems For Millions Of PC Users (forbes.com)For users who have not yet installed the update (KB5035853), it is recommended to postpone the installation until Microsoft releases a possible fix. For users currently experiencing BSOD errors or Thinkwise application issues after installing the update, we recommend uninstalling the update using standard Windows update uninstall procedures.Microsoft has acknowledged that it is investigating these issues and is expected to provide a fix in the near future.

Error when using generate report (colorspace not found)

Hello,We are building a report which works when it is started as a ‘Start Table Report’, but not when used with a ‘Generate Report’ task. We want to store the document we generate in our database, along with the record that it should be attached to. For that reason we need to be able to access the file_data, file_name, and file_path in the process/system flow. We are generating the report, and then using the ‘Write_file’ action to store the generated report in our file system. From here I want to use the ‘Add row’ action to add the document to our database.Generating the report works, but when I go to open the PDF I get the following error: It is saying that the colorspace is not valid in the PDF. We are using the windows gui to generate the report. We have used DevExpress to build the report.Any idea how to fix this?

Set number of copies in process flow report

How do I set the number of copies in a process flow which calls a report. I added the gui_rpt_number_of_copies parameter. I give it a value in the default of the task which triggers the process flow. I added a parameter gui_rpt_number_of_copies in the process flow. The parameter gets its value, but in the report step the parameter is set to 1.

Secure deletion of files

Is there a way to securely delete a file from Thinkwise which for example is stored in Azure (Files), on a local filesystem (share) or other type of storage device?The requirement comes from a GDPR related specification which states that it should be possible to securely delete a file by:Overwriting it’s contents with random data to make it non-reproducable Overwriting it’s contents by encrypting the file (and throw away the key)

Code search using multiple search strings, matched using AND/OROpen

I'd like to be able to perform a Code search in the SF using multiple search strings, instead of the one string we currently provide. I'd also like to specify if the search should match all (AND) or match any (OR) of the conditions.Example 1:Search for code that contains “model_id” AND “branch_id”.Example 2:Search for code that contains “status = ‘planned’” OR “status = ‘in_progress’”Should you have any thoughts on how this should be presented in the UI, considering the available space in the screen, please reply in the comments.
