Clickable icon/image (image-url control)Merged

It would be nice to have an image-url control, so we can make clickable icons/images in the GUI. This would be very similair to the clickable images on the thinkwise website:  For example if we have a contacts table with een linkedin url field. When in add or edit mode the user can fill in the linkedin profile url field. When in navigate mode the url field can be replaced with a clickable image (using the linkedin profile url). The image/icon should be set in the sf model. Together with the url field we have a image-url control.

Add a Web Scanning Module to be used by Universal GUIOpen

We need a Web Scanning Module. In other words to create an embedded module to be used by Universal GUI. A tool to allow you to scan a file and upload it to a file location. This is a very important feature and a lot of users will request to have this functionality on Universal GUI. For example: https://demo.dynamsoft.com/web-twain/

New line in memo fields without pressing the ALT buttonOpen

What is the reason of holding the ALT button, to go to a new line in Memo fields? Going to a new line by just pressing Enter, like any other application, would be very pleasant. Or add a extended property to make this possible.

Treeview checkboxMerged

We would like to select a certain item in a treeview by means of a checkbox. The only extra column you can add right now is an Image column. In previous versions of the SF this was possible in the ‘Generate source code’ (custom) screen.  It would be great to have this functionality in Universal.

Excel export does not contain group labelsCompleted

When exporting an excel file, the group labels are not included in the excel file. As you can see in the image, the labels ‘kostprijs’ and ‘bruto verkoopprijs’ will not show up in the excel doc.  The problem occurs when I translate the columns ‘huidige kostprijs’ and ‘nieuwe kostprijs’ to ‘huidige’ and ‘nieuwe’ (in order to make the screen readable). Then, the excel only shows columns named ‘huidige’ and ‘nieuwe’, which would make the excel unreadable. Is there a way to work around this problem? And otherwise, could it be possible to include group labels in an excel export? Kind regards, Mark

IDEA: Grid Views (Like Cube Views)Merged

It would be very useful as a user to have multiple variants of a table grid, like is already possible with cubes.As a developer I would like to define different views and make them available to end users, but also administrators and end users should be able to do that and then share it with other users. It must also be possible to duplicate views, in order to be able to modify them again and save them under a different name.The following things should be part of a gridview:- Filter (Where Clause)- Columns Order and Widths- Sort Order

Skip the first steps of the Y-axis in a graphOpen

Is it possible to skip the first 0-x increments of the Y-axis in a graph, and from x on to the highest value in your result set have the Y-axis’ regular increment?As an example see the image below:Here the values from 0-27 are the size of 1 increment on the Y-axisExample When dealing with large numbers, say hundred thousands of euro's, but the differences at the top are small, say in tenths of euro's. The automatic scale that either the Windows GUI or the Universal GUI provides the graph with makes it very hard to see these small differences in the graph.

IDEA: Grid tasks / Command ColumnMerged

I would like to propose the following idea:  Tasks are placed in a command column, always at the right side of the grid. Tasks which are not flagged as grid task can be started from the context menu that can be openen with the (...) button.This seems to me to be a relatively small adjustment for the platform, which can make applications considerably more intuitive. It ensures that there will be fewer misunderstandings about the context/row to which a task to be performed relates. It enables the possibilty to start tasks and the context menu (...) with a touchscreen.With 3 extra fields in the table table_task, this new functionality could easily be controlled from the model.1. grid_task_enabled (bit)2. grid_task_sequence(int)3. grid_icon (varbinary)

Limit auto refresh to subject only without referencesOpen

Hi. We have a table that has an auto refresh 30s..  how do I prevent that its references also refresh? Because a drawing is shown as a detail and it also refreshes every 30s and that's not wanted.

Expand/Collapse tab groups in UniversalMerged

We have some entities with a large number of fields, these are grouped into tab groups which in Universal are shown in sections. Not all sections are always relevant and we would like that users are able to Collapse and Expand these sections, ideally with saving what sections are expanded by the user (just like saving the width of columns in grids).Example how this would look (with some icon added that a section can be expanded):Collapsed:  Click on “Product” leads to the section to be extended;

Universal GUI Password strength when resetting passwordOn the backlog

When a user wants to reset his/her password in the Universal GUI and the password strength is insufficient, the user is notified of the shortcomings of the desired password. In the Universal GUI this notification appears after pressing the button ‘Change password’. If the user wants to try again the validation token is no longer valid. Is it possible to show the password strength (live) while entering the password in the Universal GUI (as shown in the windows IAM interface)?

Hide keyboard when barcodeClosed

For a project I'm using Android scanners to scan barcodes. When I tap on a field where the domain has the control barcode, the keyboard pops up like with any regular field. I'd like the keyboard to stay hidden when the control is barcode.

Excel Template File for ImportsOpen

The Import Export functionality is is great, however on empty table there is no export available. It would be great if the export immediately is also available for empty tables, this way an excel template will be created, which can be used by an user to fill and than import.

Improve end-user experience by assigning tasks to grid, form and ribbonMerged

In our EVO application, subjects contain screen types with a grid above and a form with detailed information below the grid. Both screen parts have their own taskbar. Multi-selecting lines in the grid is a valuable option. Tasks are also regularly applied in combination with a process flow, in this case the selected records are first collected in an xml. There are situations where it is desirable that a task can only start on the form and not in the grid. Because some tasks are not suitable for use in combination with multi-select.At this moment it’s not clear to end users whether a task will work properly with multi-select or not. To improve the user experience we want to be able to configure the place from which the task may be started:• Always (grid, form, ribbon), this is now the default.• Only in the grid.• Only in the form.• Only in the ribbon. The placement of the task icons in the taskbar should respond to these settings. So if a task may only be started in the grid, the task icon should not appear in the form. And vice versa.

OpenID User ProvisioningCompleted

The support for integrating Open ID providers with the Thinkwise Platform is great, but also a very common functionality in modern applications. With support for the Microsoft Common tenant around the corner, another important improvement is delivered on the topic of Single Sign-On capabilities.As already referred to by Vincent in this blog from almost 1,5 years ago, the next step is User Provisioning (sometimes called Application Provisioning or Identity Provisioning). That feature helps streamline and automate the creation of new users within an organization, including a pre-defined set of Roles & Rights.For the Thinkwise Platform User Provisioning would entail both the creation of a User and the assigning of applicable User Groups.Not a new Idea, since it's already on the Indicium backlog, but by raising it as Idea and putting it up for a vote I hope we'll manage to move it higher up the agenda!

tsf_user inlineableCompleted

As also discussed in the following link, since SQL Server 2019 inlineable scalar functions are an option. This can make sure a query can run parallel. The tsf_user function is not inlineable at this moment. When using this function in a heavy query, it will not be executed parallel as you can see in the images below. Not inlineable not inlineable Query with tsf_user not being executed parallelWhen removing the use of variables in the function, the function is inlineable and the queries will run parallel when needed:Inlineable = trueMy heavy query with tsf_user goes parallelThe script I have used is:SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON;SET ANSI_NULLS ON;GOCREATE OR ALTER FUNCTION tsf_user()RETURNS tsf_userASBEGIN --control_proc_id: sql_tsf_user --template_id: sql_tsf_user --prog_object_item_id: sql_tsf_user --template_description: Returns context_info or system_user RETURN CASE WHEN CONTEXT_INFO() IS NOT NULL THEN CASE WHEN LEN(REPLACE( CONVERT( VARCHAR(128), CONTEXT_INFO() )COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN, CHAR(0), '' ) ) <> 36 THEN REPLACE( CONVERT(VARCHAR(128), CONTEXT_INFO())COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN, CHAR(0), '' ) WHEN SERVERPROPERTY('EngineEdition') <> 5 THEN REPLACE( CONVERT(VARCHAR(128), CONTEXT_INFO())COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN, CHAR(0), '' ) WHEN REPLACE( CONVERT(VARCHAR(128), CONTEXT_INFO())COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN, CHAR(0), '' )NOT LIKE '________-____-4___-____-____________' THEN REPLACE( CONVERT(VARCHAR(128), CONTEXT_INFO())COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN, CHAR(0), '' ) END ELSE SYSTEM_USER END;END;GOPerhaps this is something you can use in a new version.

Preceding actions in process flowsOpen

For one of our reports we prefill temp tables for performance. Without pre-generated temp data the report is unusable. As part of a larger process flow this is no issue. However because the Thinkwise platform doesn’t run stored procedures inside a REPX file this report cannot be implemented standalone.The solution for now is a new process flow for this one report. Drawback is that in the GUI the report button then becomes a task button. This is because a new table task to fill the temp tables needs to set the process flow in motion that then generates the report.Preceding process actions could be a more elegant solution here. I would like to be able to perform a GUI action (e.g. start a table report or table task) and have the process flow postpone the starting process action and perform another process action (e.g. a stored procedure) first. In this case the table report would be the starting process action inside the flow and the stored procedure to fill the temp tables would be the preceding process action. Then the table report button could stay in place in our end-product, right there among other existing table reports.

Add validation for incorrect constraints on domainsOpen

Currently there are no limitations on constraints regarding the datatype. It's possible to create constraints on domains that make no sense, see picture below. Please add a validation for constraints that are incorrect and need to be corrected. These constraints cause all kinds of problems when deployed on the database.

User Preference Page sizeOpen

With the use of Universal and it's responsive behavior, users can zoom in or out to show more or less information on their different sized screens. The page size is however a quite static setting, which can result in empty space at the bottom of your grid if you have a large screen and zoomed out. My idea would be to introduce a User Preference setting for the page size a user prefers.

function or something to get actual path at runtimeClosed

it would be great of to have a function or solution to get rid of the fixed URL's but use relative paths. We use https://server/indicium/iam/appl_id/process_attachment(key_id=1,attachment_id=50)/MODEL.download_file_upload(file_id=null)  to get images to show in HTML.. but the same applies for the use of HTTP connectors to get things from your own application. There is not good way now to set it up one and for it to work in different environments. I would like to see a solution that we can use in the model and code a function or something like tsf_user to get the base URL that will always match the runtime environment.

One of our users came up with the idea to save the last 10 search requests in the global filter. When clicking on the global filter(?), you should be able to pick one of the last requests (like google search).

Runtime Translation reports from parameterOpen

Reports can be translated into external tools such as Inet reporting. However, the translation cannot be passed as a parameter. In our case, the parameter locale (which is needed) is automatically passed as promptlocale.Translations in the sf are about the translations of the screens within the application, not within the reports. therefore concerns the control from thinkwise to provide a report in several languages without making an extra report and control via the default procedure.
