Move / hide columns in grid in Universal GUINew

At this moment (GUI version 2024.3.10.0) it is not possible to move or hide columns in Universal GUI. Moving seems to be working, but it's not. When you release the column you picked up, nothing happens. In a ticket there is mentioned it is on the backlog. Where? What release? The option to hide, not found. Please make this consistent with Windows GUI

Make it possible to expose filters and pre-filters in the context procedure.Needs feedback

It doesn’t make sense to set filters and pre-filters in the context procedure, as it could be the context of a list and navigating through the items should not change them.But if we redefine what the context procedure does, and state that it doesn’t only allow to modify the context but also to see the context, it makes sense and it would make it possible to solve something that seems like an unsolvable Thinkwise puzzle at the moment.I want the report button to be filtered by the users filters, and I want more things, …, at this moment it is possible to set the filters with a workflow, but I can’t get them. The context procedure would be the logical place to retrieve the last selected value.

Barcode scanning without needing focus to a fieldNew

ContextBarcode scanner devices basically work as a normal keyboard attached to a phone, meaning it needs focus at some place on the screen where to put the scanned barcode. With barcode scanners with a touchscreen, it is very easy to unintentional lose the focus on the barcode field (even when there is only one editable task field and a default that sets @cursor_to_col_id), which will insert the barcode in the wrong field or not at all. For production/warehouse workers, this is simply not workable since scanning a barcode should just work without having to even look at the screen.IdeaWith this idea I would like a solution to make a fail-proof barcode scanner with the universal GUI which isn't limited to requiring focus on a specific field. In fact it should be optional to even show the barcode field to the user, since most times a barcode doesn't say much to the user.Possible solutionA possible solution could be a setting at a tab-task. When a screen with that tab-task is opened in the

Frequently used / important tasks and pre-filtersNeeds feedback

When working with many tasks or pre-filters, they get hidden behind the 3 dots menu. Frequently, there are certain tasks or pre-filters that you use very often, and you’d like to keep them always visible.Could there be an option to pin or keep certain pre-filters/tasks always visible, unless they don't fit, such as on a mobile device?

remove micro management on rolesMerged

Variants have been a thing for years, then why do we still need to micro manage roles? If I have created a task I want all parameters to be available as well to the user, otherwise the task won't work. The same goes for a process flow, report, etc.Doing this will greatly improve the usability of the software factory platform, lower the amount of errors due to missing rights and make the platform more accessible to junior developers.Bonus points, it could possibly improve the synchronization speed as there is a less to synchronize.

Make table variants user selectable like screen-type / grid variant / graph variant.Needs feedback

I was looking on ways to organize a main subject in an application and this is one of the ideas I got. I will make another Idea for the other option.Business case 1;We have a table with a lot of columns. It would be handy for the user to have a number of predefined sets of columns / views when using the system in different scenarios. Switching on and of columns one by one as is possible now is not really handy with the amount of columns. This is one way to realize this.Business case 2;I don’t find the current option to select the screen type handy as it allows to select default screen types which might not make sense for the application and storing it in the user profile makes that a user could “get lost”, not remembering that he or she is looking at something else then other users. The option also doesn’t allow to configure what screen type is handy where, and where it should be allowed or not.Idea;I think that this idea would improve both, giving the developer the option to create a

Easier granting rights to an object and its childsPlanned

A number of wishes have been submitted in TCP concerning adding rights to an objects.They indicate that when rights are granted to an object, they must also be granted to its childs. Same goes for revoking these rights. I was able to extract the following situations:Rights for a table should pass on to its columns Rights for a task should pass on to its task parameters Rights for a report should pass on to its report parameters Rights for a menu should pass on to its menu items Rights for a process flow should pass on to its process actionsA number of questions about this wish:What if a new column / task parameter / report parameter / menu item is added after setting up the rights? If you give a table rights because you need a column look-up, you now only get the display. Should this change? Am I still missing situations that should also be taken into account for this wish? Personally, I think that when adding a table task, for example, it is going too far to give rights to both the ta

Copy base model into work model (without linking)

Hello,I am wondering if it is possible to copy a base model into an existing work model without linking the base model. I have some use cases in which I want to copy parts of a model into another work model and from there customize the base model to the requirements for that specific work model. If I would do such a thing with a base model link, I would have to change the base model and this would impact all of the work models to which the base model is linked.I tried this with exporting the base model and importing it in the work model, but then it has no shared origin branch and I am not able to merge the models.The only thing I did not try yet is to branch the base model, customize it to a specific work model and then link this branch from the base model to the work model?Best regards,Nick Janssen

Get element of domain instead of db value

Hi, we are building a report where we have to get the value of a domain from a table. Here we get the DB value of the domain, instead of the element value. Is there a way where we can get the element value in varchar?

Problems creating an SF read-only role

I’m trying to create a full copy of the ‘software_development’ role for the SF into a new read-only role.Why? Because are support team and business analists want to explore the models built in the SF and may be able to find possible reasons something isn’t working.But we want to have a safety built in that prevents accidental insert/updates/deletes. I want the new role to only have read rights to all SF screens:Tables to read-only Editable column read-only No tasksThe script that I’ve created copies all role rights and changes it to our specific needs. All menu items seem to work fine, however I cant choose or switch a branch.I’ve figured out that a start object opens the ‘check_sf_upgrade_msg’ task and has a process flow that opens the ‘set_branch’ task. I already tried to assign rights to these tasks and the corresponding process flows but now I get an error after opening the SF: Am I missing something?Are there any plans to create a read-only role on the SF in future releases?Our pl

Can someone tell me where this comes from?

I suddenly get a beautiful box with an auto complete suggestion on the field “additional_info’.And if I select the value the input box becomes blue.But there is nothing special with the field and the suggestion 27 doesn’t make sense.So I was wondering if someone else has seen this before ...

Batch update in grid - selected rows / all rows

In Windows GUI you can do an upgrade for selection / all rows in grid / all rows, in Universal GUI this option is not available. So, a user has to perform this action for each pageBy the way, looking at the translation: all rows in the table suggest all rows in the DB, but it is actually all rows within context / selection. Our DB has > 200k rows for this table.

copy text from grid in Universal GUI

If I select a single property in the grid to copy this, it copies the whole row.So when I paste my text which I selected and copied, it paste all values of that row By the way: if you select text from a multiline field (with word wrap), copy works.

model_version vs version_name vs branch

Hi,Since this summer we work with the new model/branch process. We deployed our products always with a modelversion, like 1.140. Now we state this versioning in the new ‘version_name’ in de model settings. When I synchronize this to IAM, I see an option to sync as a different branch, but we can update the MAIN branch. So in IAM the model/branch looks like this. Can’t see the actual version_name here? When I create a deployment package, I check the version name:I use this package in a customer environment, I get the version name as Branch: Why is the branch replaced by the version name of the model? Why is this different from syncing to IAM?

The scheduler gives me the wrong date

Hello everyone,In our application we have a scheduler, this scheduler gives the wrong start date when I start it up. It interprets the date 9-10-2024 as the 10th of September, and not as the 9th of October. This is confusing and because of this, I thought the scheduler was not functional: Today it should be fine, as it cannot interpret 10-10-2024 as something else (I do have to delete the other test data for that).But this is inconvenient. It seems to interpret 09-10-2024 in the American way (month/day/year instead of day/month/year). What could be the cause of this, and has anyone else run into this problem?

IAM - OpenID Providers roles claim is sometimes missing.

I have set up an OpenID provider in IAM, allowing users to log in to the application via SSO. Now, I want to link user groups to this role using the 'roles' claim.I am facing an issue, and I think it might be related to the number of roles assigned to a user, as in some cases, there are quite a lot of them, but it could also be something else. For some users, I see a long list of roles where I could filter by ID to find the correct role, but for other users, I don’t receive any role claim at all, even though these are configured in their Azure AD. Does anyone happen to know what might be causing this?
