Default 'Merge from:' to active branchCompleted

Almost always you’re going to merge you’re active branch. However currently I need to select that branch from a dropdown, it would save time and effort if my current active branch would be defaulted so I do not need to select it.

Copy To Clipboard control on a DomainCompleted

Hi all,Wouldn’t it be nice to have a copy to clipboard for specific fields to make the life of the user easier. The User does not need to mess around trying to Select, Highlight then copy with keyboard Ctrl+C then Ctrl+V or right click when allowed to Copy+Paste etc… Too much hassle too many operations. This could be easily created for both the Web and Universal GUI.A Control could be added on the Domain for enabling the Copy to Clipboard.  That would show a small icon for Copy to Clipboard on the related field (form, grid) The value of the field to be copied to Clipboard.How does that sound?Anyone else have additional input for such functionality and amend the above, please let us know in the idea comments.

Mock data set based on viewCompleted

At this moment the Software Factory does not support creating mock data based on views. This means that functionality that is based on a view cannot be covered by unit tests. I’m not sure if it is, but a work around could be to fill all the tables on which the view depends on with mock data, but this could get very time consuming and not necessary if you don’t want to test the view itself. If it would be possible to create mock data based on views, then the Software Factory can for example:Rename the existing view Create a mock table based on this view, with the original name add the mock data After the unit test has completed, the mock table can be dropped and the view renamed to it’s original name.

Able to hide a task in the taskbar when task is used for double clickCompleted

It would be nice if you have the option to hide a task in the taskbar when you use the task as a double click task.For example: When you use double click in the grid to navigate to the form or details from that record then the task doesn't (always) need to be visible in the taskbar. But now when you hide the task the double click function doesn't work.

Select default startup branch in 2023.1Completed

IN 2023.1 you get the popup to select a branch if you have multiple active branches. However, more often then not you are working exclusively in 1 branch at a time. I suggest adding a default branch option to the user which branch should be loaded by default, this way you won't have to select the branch every time you boot up the software factory.

Add description to DomainsCompleted

The power of domains is that they are easy to reuse and thus to maintain. However the name alone is sometimes not enough to communicate it’s use. So it would be nice if you could add a short description to a domain.This way you could add a quick description describing why it was created and why for example the min and max values are the way that they are. This keeps this knowledge in the Software Factory instead of in the brains of the developers.

Make mock data value expression fields readibleCompleted

When configuring mock data, you have the option to use expressions to fill the mock data values. However, they are not readible in the SF as the field is covered in a horizontal scrollbar. Can we make the fields wider or higher so we can read the fields, without opening an external text editor with the pencil?

Generate default logic for HandlersCompleted

When I use a Handler, I would like to add specific logic to the handler and next to that I mostly what the default insert, update, or delete to be executed.Currently I have to add and maintain the default logic myself, which takes a lot of time and increases the risk of errors.As a user, I would like to indicate that I want to use the Handler and have the option to indicate whether or not I want to use the default insert, update, or delete. And if so, have the SF generate them for me. This way, I only need to develop the specific logic.

Or prefiltersCompleted

Selecting multiple prefilters now always leads to: where [prefilter 1 query] AND [prefilter 2 query]. I would also very much like to have the possibility to make OR prefilters. Not only between columns (colour = red OR shape = square) but also within columns (colour = red OR colour = blue OR shape = square).

2023.1: Add a tree structure for insight in branch levelsCompleted

In the 2023.1 version all branches are part of the same model. To add a better overview of branch levels please add a tree structure to showcase if a branch is created from the main (root) or a different branch. Currently it's not visually clear what are 1st or 2nd (etc) level branches.

Client credentials openidCompleted

The .well-known/openid-configuration states that it should be possible, however it cannot be configured now.  It would be very nice to be able to have this authentication type.

Execute control procedure from process flow step screenCompleted

During the construction of a process flow, process steps must be adjusted regularly. If you already have code attached to these steps, you will often see that the GUI generates an error message because the parameters for the process procedures have to be generated again. If that is the case, we need to look at that process step to see which process procedure is attached to it, then look it up in control procedures and re-generate the code groups and execute the generated code. It would be nice to be able to do this directly from a process step, so we don't forget these actions and run into frustrating errors in the gui. In addition, it would also be nice to be able to do this from the process parameter (or process flow/design) screen, so that when a new process variable is created, the code from all steps in the process flow can also be easily re-generated and executed. I understand that the above solution might be a bit short-sighted or that there is a solution that fits a bit better and I would love to hear it! But I think it is clear what irritations I am trying to expose.

Task to copy Filter/Search order numbers from column order numbers.Completed

Currently you can only copy between filter and search order numbers. It would be really neat if we can copy the order numbers from the column order numbers.This is because sometimes when you change the order numbers on the columns the filter/search order numbers wont change with them and the filter popup gets really messy. And it's annoying to manually reset these filter order numbers.

Jump between SF screensCompleted

Hello dear Community readers, In the upcoming release of 2023.1 we expect to technically change the way screens are opened for every screen that used the ribbon to select a project and version (so almost all SF screens).A side-effect is that is it now possible to automatically (read: with process flows) open other SF screens without losing the connection to your selected project and version. I could think of a few places where this is very helpful, for instance to switch from data model to subject with respect for the table that you were working on.My question to you is; where would you like to use this the most in the Software Factory? I would love to hear your ideas! Greetings,Ester Product Owner SF & IAM

Notification if another developer already has opened Code externally in SFCompleted

In the project I work on it happens that both my colleague and I happen to be working in the same Code template. Most of time we communicate about what we work on at what time, but sometimes it happens that we work on the same long piece of coding.It would be nice if I could get a notification or visible indication if someone else opened the code (externally). An alert icon next to the 'Open externally’ buttonExample of Alert icon next to ‘Open externally’ button

Include duration of actions in smoke testCompleted

With the release of the 2023.1 version of the Thinkwise Suite a new feature was introduced, the Smoke Test. I would like to utilize this feature and allow it to do a quick performance scan.Since it's actions will require the opening of screens, it could help identify possible performance issues within an application. In order to so, it needs to store the duration of the steps which are executed.Could this be implemented in the Smoke Test?

Differentiate Zoom screen in Open DocumentsCompleted

Currently the GUI does not distinguish between Zoom screens versus Main screens in the Open Documents part of the Menu. It would be very helpful to have a subtle indication (a small icon f.e.) of an Open Document being a Zoom screen, as it would help users to quickly know where to go (usually to Main) and/or which screens to close (usually Zoom).Which one is Main and which are Zoom screens?

Deployment center install option to skip database provisioningCompleted

It would be very nice to be able to skip some of the steps when you do a deployment with the deployment center. For example the creation step. This counts for as wel as your projects and the SF/IAM databases. When the database already exists but it is empty I want it to use that one instead of having to delete it.

GPS coordinates Universal from DeviceCompleted

Does the Universal already support fetching the current location from a device that has a GPS function? Or is there a way to get it using HTML and Javascript (https://love2dev.com/blog/html-geolocation/) in for example a task to then fetch a route via API to a known location?

Show tooltip for images stored in databaseCompleted

I like to show the filename/textual value of an image upload field as tooltip.   The example above shows status values as icon, which saves a lot of column width. For most users this is very clear, but for new user it is valuable to show the meaning of the icon as tooltip. In the Windows GUI the values are already visible in the filter.

Visual indication that a process flow is running (Universal)Completed

I would like to see that the GUI shows a visuals indicator that a user is in a GUI flow. Now when you go from flow starting task A to task B (with a for example a decision node or HTTP requests in between) the user doesn't see that a next task is coming up. Implementation could be something like a tsf_send_progress idea where are user is aware that the flow is getting info, making a decision or whatever is in the flow.

Tooltips on Universal as per Roadmap discussionCompleted

Hi All,Opening this as an Idea so that it can get votes and be implemented earlier. As per discussion on the Roadmap for the tooltips:“We are missing the Tooltips on Labels in Forms in Universal. We would like to provide the user once he hovers on the label of the field an explanation of what the field is supposed to contain in case the translation is not clear enouph.Right now we only get sort of tooltip with the complete value only when the value of the field is not fully visible. I suppose it should be configurable of what to show, a. the tooltip text or b. the value if not fitting the field width.”“Any given field I would like to specify a different tooltip when hovering the label of the control. Same way I define a translation for a Label I would like to specify a tooltip visible upon hovering the label.”“I expect the Universal GUI to read the Tooltip text column from the Subject > Columns > Translations and display that as tooltip when hovering over the (label/header of the) column. At least in the Form, but preferably also on the Grid header.”

Grid row height adjustable in Universal guiCompleted

If i’m correct, currently the grid row height set in the Subject is ignored by Universal. Because of this, we can’t show as much rows as we would like to. Why is this currently the case?And can we have this functionality in Universal implemented?

Time estimation for learning process mlCompleted

I am currently testing ml on my laptop. So I have sqlserver, indicium and ml-docker image running locally.Training a model takes quite a long time. In my first tests I tried to train a table with 100,000 rows with 4 predictors. I left my laptop on and 8 hours later it was still training the first model.  It would be useful to get a time estimation of how long it will take to train a model, so that it is clear whether waiting for the process is useful or whether it is better to use another dataset.
