Informing users (using Windows GUI / Indicium) of maintenance timeCompleted

I want to inform my users of my Thinkwise application there will be downtime because of maintenance. We are using the Windows GUI in combination with Indicium. Suggestion made by Erik Brink - We could think of requesting this information before login from Indicium possibly.   (See discussion: https://community.thinkwisesoftware.com/deployment-12/announcing-maintenance-downtime-to-users-1096?postid=3184#post3184)

Easier granting rights to an object and its childsCompleted

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 table with its columns and the task with its parameters. @Jeffrey Tolboom, @Roland van Aggele, @Jaap van Beusekom, @Gijs, @Remco, @Arjan Sollie, @JasperSince you have reported a wish concerning this topic, I would certainly like to hear your opinion. Other opinions are also of course appreciated.

Automatic generation of translations objects in TSFCompleted

Make translation object generation in TSF automatic in the background. When creating and modifying objects. This saves application developers a lot of unnecessary clicking and waiting.

Custom complete creation settingsCompleted

With the release of 2021.3 you have the option to run the complete creation instead of executing the deployment step by step (generate definition, validate definition, generate source code, execute source code, run unit tests). You have three options complete, selected and selected start with none. In my opinion a fourth option is missing. This option would be custom. For example some project always use smart upgrade method having this option selected by default would be helpful. Second. If there is a custom schedule this schedule should be selected automatically when opening the execute complete creation task.

DevExpress SubReportCompleted

Currently it’s impossible to use a separate report as a subreport as ThinkWise is unable to locate said report. I know your solution is to create a Master-Detail Report with a Detail Report Band, but that doesn’t work well for having summaries at the end of your report. So is this something you might consider finding a work around for? It would solve my problem a lot faster.

Show mandatory parameters (and filling them) when creating a unit testCompleted

When I’m creating unit tests for example for a task, this task can have mandatory parameters. However to find this out I need to look up to task in the SF. So I need to open Tasks > search for the specific task > > Select Task Parameters and then sift through all the parameters and enter them mandatory.It would be much easier if the unit test already loads all mandatory parameters (and maybe even defaults some values based on the domains or defaults but that could be difficult).

Rename task for Action BarsCompleted

We have discovered the new possibilities of Action bars and are now going to apply them more and more in the screens.It is useful that multiple action bars can be used, but we are finding that it would be useful to give action bars a logical name. For example toolbar_grid_top, toolbar_grid_bottom, toolbar_form, etc.. Could a rename task be added for this?

Task to add Marker to MapCompleted

It would be great if the Maps component supports a Task to add a Marker. We would expect this Task to be triggered by double-clicking on a position on the Maps component, which should then automatically retrieve the longitude/latitude of the clicked location on the Map. This feature could be similar to the Task on the Resource Scheduler with which we can add new Activities on the Resource Scheduler component.

A strike through is a perfect way to show users that something has been deleted, or is discarded for another reason.

Change unit test objectCompleted

Currently it is not possible to change a unit test it’s linked object. I would very much like a feature that allows me to change the object of a unit test. I can image that you are not allowed to change the object type.When do you need such a feature. For example if you split up a table into 2 tables. Or when you create a view of a table and you would like to also include unit tests from this table to be copied to this his new view.Or when you have to copy/split up a task. You would like to copy units or move them to the newly create task(s).It can also be very usefully when you only find out during running the unit test that you have linked to the incorrect object.As to be expected the output and input columns/parameters can only be preserved when they exists in the new object.

Apply conditional layouts to ChartsCompleted

For a businesscase we have to set the color of a chart column to a specific color, based on the total amount. For example, when the column value <= 20 it needs to be shown in red.I recently created a ticket for this on howto activate conditional formatting on charts, but it isn’t possible at the moment. I think this will be very usefull for other customers to.

Add run now button to system flows in IAMCompleted

Trouble shooting System flows is very time consuming. To make the process a bit more user friendly a "Run system flow now" button in IAM would be very helpful, so you don't have to wait for the system flow to start.

It would be nice if you could filter on specific values from (combination of) the current tab and detail tabs. For example: which employees have more than 10 vacation days and work in the Customer Solutions department.

Bring the Filter Expression to the Universal GUICompleted

Idea as follow up from the question:An advanced feature that was available in the older GUI’s, that could help filter situation that “Filter Form”, “Combined filter” or “Grid Column Filter” could not achieve. Pressing the little arrow down made it availablePossible to filter several conditions like a Boolean function Able to also input it as a text (which you could use to recreate the filter as it never got a feature to save these).

Merge indexesOpen

The Software Factory has a validation which informs you of indexes that are equal to one another and should be merged into a single index.Personally, I think having this validation is nice, but if you can inform me about this issue, why not resolve it for me. It would be great to have a way to automatically merge these indexes.I need a way to merge index together to help me save a chunk of time. Perhaps create an enrichment for this?

Drag & Drop handle on right side (Universal)Open

When drag & drop is enabled on the Universal GUI, a handle icon is added on the left side of the grid for every row.Please make it possible for a developer to determine on which side of the grid this handle is displayed. When the dropping is done on a detail on the right side, it is more convenient for the user only having to drag the row over a small part of the screen.Of course when the handle is displayed on the right side, it should still be a locked column so it doesn’t disappear when not scrolled to the right.

UGUI: Open menu item/open document in new browser window/tabOpen

As a user of a Thinkwise application I want to be able to open a menu item or an open documents item in a new browser tab or window so that I can use the application on multiple monitors and compare objects in the application side by side.It is already possible to open a new browser tab, open the application and open a menu item. But I want it to be more convenient by using my open application as a starting point. For example by pressing the right mouse button on the menu item or open document and using the context menu as a normal website:

Define a SQL expression for a column aggregationOpen

My view has a column that contains the space used on a single pallet, which ideally should total 1 (1 full pallet). The idea is to use the aggregation of a column to show both the sum, and the “remaining” space.For example: if a pallet is half full, it would show 50/50, if it is 90% full, it shows 90/10.I think it is possible using an SQL expression for the aggregation type, but I don’t know where to define the logic after selecting it in the subject components grid settings: SQL expression setting​​​​​​I imagine it could look something like this (for my usecase):SELECT  CONCAT( ROUND(SUM(value), 2), '/', ROUND(1 - SUM(value), 2) ) AS custom_aggregation FROM t1; Update by moderator: converted question into an idea.

Column separators in gridsOpen

In replicating the legacy system as closely as possible I needed to create a visual separator between column groups:Example column separatorsUsing some custom CSS I was able to add them, but it uses a hard link on the column names, so if those ever change, the CSS will also have to be updated:[data-tab-id="sales_order_overview"] [col-id="count_pallets_purchase_order"],[data-tab-id="sales_order_overview"] [col-id="count_boxes"],[data-tab-id="sales_order_overview"] [col-id="count_pallets_to_pick_from"],[data-tab-id="sales_order_overview"] .ag-header-group-cell-with-group { border-left: 6px solid lightgray !important;}When I found out about column groups I figured this would already be an option, but it doesn’t seem to be there (yet). To standardize it, it could become a checkbox somewhere in the subject grid settings.

Ability to show Messages in-line of specific ColumnsOpen

Hi!I am not sure if there's already an idea for it, I didn't saw one.My proposal will be to be able to highlight (as it is for mandatory fields when they are empty) the fields in a table/task that based on some checks resulted that their inputs are not good.So for example if someone will add a quantity bigger that a certain value that is checked in back (default / execution of task / save changes) beside the message that user will get and the changes of data on field level, to have also a highlight that will indicate exactly from where the warning comes from.Of course this can be improved to not show only errors, but maybe warnings and on hover to show the tooltip or the message that was prompted.What do you think about this?

Tree-grid (combined)Open

I would like to propose a new screen type: Tree-grid. This should be a combination of the current treeview and a regular grid, having the advantage to use a treeview with multiple columns. The first column should obviously be the treeview.Example from Devexpress (TreeList View | WPF Controls | DevExpress Documentation):
