Task in IAM to activate/deactivate an applicationCompleted

During an upgrade, we deactivate the application in IAM, to make sure the process flows stop running while the model changes are not sent to IAM yet. When you have multiple applications on one model, you need to activate/deactivate all these applications through the form. We would like to see a task where you can activate/deactivate multiple selected applications in IAM.

Search columns on domain nameCompleted

A quick improvement for me to work faster is to include domain names in the search option for columns here:In model contents, the domain names are included in the search. Would be great to have that within tables as well.

Delete model or branch warning in IAMCompleted

In IAM Models and Branches kan be cleaned up by using the delete button. If you accidently had selected a model instead of a branch, the whole model is deleted including all branches.If all groups and roles are implemented in the SF a sync could fix the mistake. If not you're left with restoring the IAM database.Today I accidently removed a model instead of a branch this way. I now depend on IT to restore the database. Luckily it was no production IAM.My idea: present the user with a popup and having him/her selecting wether to delete a model with all branches or not. If it is up to me, deleting a model that has branches shouldn't be possible at all.

Enable "Edit in Grid" for Elements in TSFCompleted

Elements grid in Domains is currently not editable, which is annoying, because domains can have many elements.

More efficiently generate translations for table variantsCompleted

At the moment, the only way translations could be added for a table variant is by setting Translate flag on in the Settings tab page of the variant:Settings tab pageIt is easier and more intuitive to do that directly from the Translations tab page of the variant:Translations tab page

Block branch from accidentally mutatingCompleted

Recently we started working with the different branches for development, release and main. It is desirable that in principle (with the exception of hot fixes) all developments are carried out in the development branch.Currently it is not possible to protect a branch against "accidental" mutating. Naturally, the developer should pay attention to which branch he makes adjustments in, but a mistake is easily made. And this means rolling back that branch and re-entering the work or a special merge action.Of course we can introduce the "pastry scheme" for those who accidentally do this. But it would be more useful if we could secure the branch, for example by showing a notification when the branch is opened.Is it possible to make such a adjustable warning for branches?

Optional alternative translation object for duplicate entriesCompleted

In a perfect world you name every column correctly in the first try. However, more often than not software needs to be revised and columns need to be renamed. The only options I now know of to rename a column is to create an expression column or rename the actual column on the data model to create a new translation subject. Both have some disadvantages and feel very redundant for just a simple column rename action. What would help is the option to create an alternative translation object for a specific object (for example a column). Or choose a different existing translation object.

Difference comparison between a variant and its baseCompleted

It regularly occurs that I can't figure out why a specific variant has been made, especially when no meaningful variant name has been used. It can be a lot of work to distinguish the differences with the table it's based on, in order to determine whether its existence is still justified.For this reason I would like to be able to execute a automatic comparison between a table variant and the table it's based on.

Run "Create mock data table from database" enrichment from Mock data screen, with Where clauseCompleted

Creating mock data sets is the single most time consuming task when creating unit tests. Often data already exists in the project database which, after some careful adjusting, is suitable for unit tests. I would like to easily import this data into a mock data set to speed up creating unit tests.

Insert your own code before try catch and after end catch in 'atomic transaction'Completed

In addition to the following topic:It would be nice to be able to weave code before the begin try so we are able to create custom scenarios in the software.(For example for logging purposes)For the same reason it would be nice to be able to weave code after the end catch.

A more user-friendly version of cubesCompleted

Can we please get a more user friendly version of cubes? Setting up a simple graph is more complicated than it should be. I feel like we could greatly benefit from having the UI/UX team having a look at cubes and think of a more refined way of creating cubes and graphs. Maybe adding a wizard to guide you through the creation process would be very helpful.

Asynchronous process flowsCompleted

Per request of @Vincent Doppenberg & Rene JochemWe’ve build more than a few systemflows to act like if it is a asynchronous processflow. These systemflows will do some stuff when it finds a record in a certain table, for example the recalculation of prices within an (larger) offer, which can take a while to complete due to fetching stuff like current prices from the outside world. The systemflow will scan every 5 seconds to see if there is something it can do and for a very large percentage of its lifespan it will find nothing to do. With enough applications on a server this will cause harsh spikes on them.What we were and still are looking for are asynchronous process flows, that for example are triggered by the end users push on a button (within the Windows GUI) in which the process flow will act like a systemflow does and needs no more user interaction so that the user can either log out or do something completely different with the application.rgds Ricky

Have separate icon for a filter when Active and when Inactive (on/off)Completed

Goal is to have a separate icon defined for a filter when Active and a different one for Inactive. We came to a situation where we need to have a filter icon more visible towards when active or inactive. Currently the only separation between the 2 states is the underscore under the icon itself.The idea is to be able to define the icon for Active like and when Inactive likeWe can use icons of opposite state for defining the Active and Inactive state.

Display type for prefilters and cube viewsCompleted

At the moment, we show prefilters in the prefilter bar. The prefilters only show an icon, and no text. Unfortunately, it can be pretty hard to find an icon that perfectly reflects what the prefilter does. Therefore, a text/title can sometimes help. Luckily, this can be found in the overflow menu. We would like to see a display type for prefilters, where you can choose to show the prefilterOnly with an icon With icon and text Only with text In the overflow menuSame logic could be applied to cube views

SSH-protocol support for FTP-connectorCompleted

The FTP-connector currently supports regular FTP and FTPS. The sftp or SSH protocol is not yet supported. I would like to see this additional protocol supported.

Automatically expand grouped rows in a gridCompleted

Currently, grouped columns open by default with all groups closed and only the top row expanded, like this:I would like to have an option in the subject to open all grouped columns by default. Then it will look like this when I open the document: This option is already available for the tree settings, but not yet for grouped columns.

Support suppress grid header in Universal GUICompleted

According to the description in https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/screen_types.html#designing-a-screen-type the grid header can be suppressed with the property "Show grid header".This is highly desirable in order to maximize the number of records displayed on a mobile device. Often the data speaks for itself and grid headers are superfluous.At the moment this feature is not supported in Universal GUI.We would like this feature to be supported in Universal GUI.

Move / hide columns in grid in Universal GUICompleted

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

HTML control UniversalCompleted

The HTML control in the Universal is very limited, a user cannot do anything HTML like. It would hugely increase its value when it's something like there in the forum, where you can do text layouts including colors, links, quotes etc…

Use translation and case sensitivicy of headers instead of use of CAPITALS only in UniversalCompleted

In Windows GUI, the translation is used for detail tabs, incl. case sensitivity In Universal, are only CAPITALS used? Why? Please make this consistent with Windows in order to comply with our styling guidelines

Conditional layout null value comparisonCompleted

I have made a Conditional layout rule that highlights values in the (nullable) Year end and Year end old columns if they are different, the condition being specified as such:This produces the following result in the application. I think it is unintuitive that the two null values get marked as Not equal to each other. I understand this is how sql works, and I think it would be useful to allow tsf users to specify that null values should be marked as not equal to each other.This could be done with a manual null check:t1.year_end = t1.year_end_old or (t1.year_end is null and t1.year_end_old is null)for Equal to, or simply something like isnull(t1.year_end, '') = isnull(t1.year_end_old, '')This option to enable Null value comparison in this way would be toggleable with a checkbox.

Clicking back in live error log should go back to the Indicium selection screenCompleted

When in the live error log I sometimes like to go back a page by using the back button on screen. However when I click the front end button it opens the actual application, not the Indicium overview, which is confusing and irritating. My idea is to let the back button actually go back to the Indicium overview (with log, live log, user sim… etc..)

Improved Tooltip Behavior with auto-disappearCompleted

The current tooltip implementation in Thinkwise often leads to a frustrating user experience. Tooltips do not automatically disappear, which can block access to input fields below the pop-up. This forces users to either wait for the tooltip to fade or manually click away, which disrupts workflow and reduces efficiency.We implemented a temporary fix using custom CSS (see below), but it would be far more beneficial if Thinkwise offered built-in support for tooltips that automatically disappear after a set time.[role="tooltip"]:hover { display: none!important; }
