Add an option to display side bar menu in collapsed mode as default in Universal GUIOpen

For our applications, we would like to use as much of the screen as possible.End users will have multiple document open at the same time, sometimes on a relatively small screen.To give the end users some more screen space, we would like to set the default setting of the sidebar menu in the Universal GUI as collapsed.So when they open the application, the menu is automatically set as collapsed.Side bar menu fullsize​​​​​​Side bar menu collapsed

App and 2-factor authenticationClosed

When we log in with 2-factor authentication every time we must get the authentication code. Maybe it is an idea to ask ones a month and not everytime we login.

Online Help (web)Closed

We have some ideas to enhance the online Help (web): The ability to have a General section where online help can be displayed, including enabling referrals (hyperlinks) to this section or from this section to other parts of the online Help (tables, columns , Tasks, reports). This makes it possible to include general information about the steps in the processes clearly in the online Help. To better identify the search option (many users do not know that this is possible, is visually not clear enough). In The above example it is not clear to the user where to click to search. The performance of the search is still not very well. The ability to display the online Help screen as part of the Dinz Web screen, so you can see the Dinz Web screen and Help ' next to each other. Possibility to enter (ALSO) Help for a combination of a column and table (or report, task, etc.). Now the Help is recorded per column, so it is the same for all the tables in which this column is included, while the behavior, meaning, and possibilities may be different. When I search for a word, I also get screens (tables) for subjects, which are not in the list of tables. Make search more intelligent. When I search on ' debtor report ' I get no results. When I search on ' report ' OR ' debtor ' I get results. Prevent tables/topics from occurring more than once. It is not clear to the user what is meant.

Change Universals' message when refreshing model/logging out during editingOpen

When you are editing a record in the Universal GUI, the GUI prompts with a message to inform a user that he is still adding/editing a record, and he should first cancel or save it’s changes before logging out. Is it possible to change this (at least for developers, who regularly refresh the model) to the prompt if a user wants to cancel his changes, that is also shown when the user simply uses the cancel button in the form? This will save some time and frustration when regularly testing and refreshing the model.

Ability for double clicks that will execute tasks to work on fields(forms)/columns(grid)Open

We have an idea of instead of having a lot of tasks as buttons around the page to do specific code executions or process flow, like process action “go to row”. Maybe we can just bind them to fields and if we double click the fields, they will be able to do different things.Obviously, we already have this as DoubleClick on grid, meaning its per record. What if we can do this also per fields. If this feature is considered. It would help us have our pages using Universal Gui look simpler with the task buttons be hidden in the background. Current Double Click Feature we have.

Layout mode function in Context procedureOpen

It would be great if you could utilize the @layout_mode function in a context procedure template. I have two deletion tasks assigned to two different roles, and I tried to hide the tasks if the layout mode is set to 'add.' However, it appears that this function is not available in a context procedure.

Make IAM application to be started adjustable via ini-fileOpen

Various 'administrations' are used for our new application (rebuilding a complete ERP system). All data is stored in 1 database. An IAM application is created for each 'administration'. To prevent user (input) errors, we want to be able to start each IAM application separately, whereby the other IAM applications are not visible. This problem can be solved by extending the existing INI file for controlling the IAM applications.We would like an extra parameter to indicate which application (alias) should be started with that specific INI file (running the Windows GUI). Only that application then has to be started and the user must therefore not see the other applications "at the bottom left of the screen".Something like the 'Model' parameter in the INI file for the SF. It is then always completely clear to a user in which application (and therefore which administration) they are working.

Digital Certificate CheckOpen

 In Brazil it's sort of mandatory for especially companies to have a digital certificate. I would like to see Thinkwise to support the validation/authentication of a digital certificate. It's a common question here as towards we can do something with it.

Icon repository - block forbidden file types (or give a Validation-error)Completed

Since TSF 2023.1 we have an Icon Repository, with the following supported file types:A change in the Icon repository is that we have limited the allowed extensions. First, every extension could be used for an icon. Now, it has been limited to .gif, .jpeg, .jpg, .png, .bmp, and .svg. This week I had an issue with the Universal GUI that some of my Icons weren’t showing up. The request gave an 403 error but no idea why. It turned out to be that the icons had an ICO-file type. Works perfectly in Windows, but clearly not in Universal.It would be nice if is impossible in the SF to upload Icons with a ‘forbidden’ file type (extension whitelist??)  or at least that the Validation will give an error or a warning.

Smart SynchronizationOpen

Smart upgrades have been possible for quite some time. One feature that would greatly benefit the deployment process would be a smart sync. The SF knows which objects have been modified so it should also be able to deduce which object need to be synced. This could speed up the syncing process by miles and would make the SF even more powerful to use.

Enhanced Default Settings in Software Factory for Column SortingOpen

We've got a nifty validation setup in our Software Factory that checks for sorting on columns that are not supported by the GUI. Pretty slick, right? But here's the kicker: we can't set this as a default on the domain level like we do for filtering and searching and as such I need to do this all by hand.I'm thinking it'd be a nice to have for our devs to streamline this process by making 'allow sort' default to 0 for columns in unsupported GUI domains. Let's make life easier for our team!

Allow download of previous report data in history popupOpen

The Software Factory offers the option to show the history of several items throughout the Software Factory. One of these is a report.At the moment it is not possible to download the report file related to this point in history. This is too bad, because often you would like to download a previous version of you report file to compare this file with the current file active in production.At the moment this is not available. It would help me out by a great deal if you were able to download this report file. Technically the report file data is stored in the history data, you simply cannot download it at the moment,

Using subflows in Windows GuiClosed

Hi, please add the subflow functionality to the Windows GUI. As Universal is not an option in the near future for some, it would make the development of reusable ‘blocks’ much easier.And it will make Thinkwise a more sustainable solution with little means, win win 😀

OData: OpenApi / Metadata subselectsCompleted

For big models and applications, the openapi and metadata result is enormous and more often leeds to crashing client applications who want to read it. Would be great to be able to extract definitions for a specific endpoint or other sub-select.  https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/indicium/api#metadata

Add mandatory description screen for table references with checked disabledOpen

The Software Factory allows you to uncheck the integrity on FK references between tables. This option should be used with caution. Because on most occasions you would like to check the data integrity. Therefor it would be very useful to force developers to put in a reason why they have unchecked this integrity.Having this forces them to think about their reasons and might help them understand that unchecking this is unusual and requires specific reasons. This obviously only applies for references between tables not between tables/views.I would like to description field to be placed in this popup window

Login telemetry events - support for AWS CloudWatchOpen

The latest Indicium release includes a nice feature to more centrally monitor the Login events on the Thinkwise platform. Currently this works with Azure Application Insights, but since we're on AWS it would be great to have this supported with AWS CloudWatch too!Could this please be added?

IAM user login feedback should distinguish non-existing vs expired usersOpen

At the moment, expired users are treated the same as non-existing users. IAM User with an end date added in IAM ‘Ends on’ field get an 'Incorrect username or password' error on both Indicium and Universal Login page, but username and password are actually correct. Could you differentiate between users that don't exist and expired users and return a more descriptive and correct error?

Button Controls and etch. inside TasksOpen

Hi, I have been wondering for some time now regarding Tasks, we have a case where we need to clear all the fields in a task using default procedure but don't have any control to represent it properly. So, for now we used a checkbox to clear fields. Will it be possible in the future to allow other types of controls like buttons inside tasks or other objects (buttons in grids!) in the future? and can we bind logic to them?Maybe we can have extra property to task to have a button by default used to clear fields preprogrammed.Button Instead?

Add (more) loading icons to universalOpen

If you are working on a slower system it can take a while for universal to load. You often get a blank screen, a blank menu or a blank detail. Then a minute later the data shows. There is no loading indicator to give you any notification that there is still data loading. This is very confusing to work with as you sometimes assume a detail/screen is empty for it later on to show data. For some screens/processes a loading icon shows but a lot do not. Please add more loading icons for example when loading the menu to show that there is still some loading going on in the background.

Suppress on-screen keyboard for combo control in UniversalCompleted

My client has a form with several fields that use a combo look-up control, this is filtered to only show limited number of rows. On a mobile device they are always presented with the on-screen keyboard, even though they never type the values for these fields, the keyboard eats up screen real estate while being unused.It would be great to be able to make the field behave like a domain with elements would with the look-up settings.

Create your own (parameterized) mailtemplates in IAMOpen

With the release of 2023.2, it will be possible to send mails based on templates via IAM. We have already built an email queue mechanism ourselves where emails are queued and sent based on (parameterized) templates via an SMTP connector. After learning that IAM would get a similar feature, we wanted to phase out this functionality and have it replaced by IAM. Unfortunately, in IAM we cannot use the templates ourselves, but there are only some standard templates which are used by IAM, which is not sufficient for our use case.We would like to be able to create our own parameterized templates in IAM, which we can then call with a mail connector. The mail connector then needs a template code/name and necessary mail parameters (in json, for example) to create the body of the mail, by replacing the parameter placeholders in the template body with the parameter values passed in the mail connector.This will enable us to automatically use the mail provider provided in IAM, and allow us to use translated mails in different languages.

Set actual tray name as parameter using Process flow connector Print file (PDF)Open

With version 2023.2, the process action Print file (PDF) has been expanded with a large number of parameters. One of these parameters is the printer tray.We want to use this new functionality to send output to different printers, including different trays.With our current production system we still use the reporting service. In addition to the desired printer, we can also specify the desired printer tray (name!).We want to convert our current production system to use Print file (PDF) and use this functionality in a new application that we are currently building. It would therefore be very desirable if we could provide the name of the printer tray, just as it is now possible with the reporting service.

More advanced filter conditions in process actionsOpen

Hello CommunityThis idea might have slight overlap with this idea:In addition to that idea (changing the operator/filter condition) i would also like the ability to determine if the filter is build with OR/AND between my conditions now if i use a filter they will always have an AND between them.  E.G i have 2 columns in my filter process action set to Input settingsThe resulting query will be Where person_from_id = 1 AND person_to_id = 1I would like to be able to generate this queryWhere person_from_id = 1 OR person_to_id = 1I dont exactly know how this needs to be presented/implemented in the GUI maybe something like this?Train conditions from factorio
