An Home button, which is visible in any form/context, to go back to the menu would be handy.

Enable DB Storage for screen component 'Preview'Completed

Sometimes images are stored in a binary column in the database. At this moment it seems not possible to view these images with the preview component. Main reason for using the preview component is because its responsive behavior.

Creating a legend to go a long with SF process diagramsOpen

Within our project we have encountered the problem that key-users in the analysis process do not always know what the key components of a process diagram mean. This is why we have created our own legend (see appendix, sorry that it's in Dutch) in the form of an user requirement in the SF, that contains a 'diagram' with all the key components that we use in our process diagram. Perhaps it would be nice if there would be one generic legend, in both Dutch and English, that explains all the key-components used in process diagrams within the SF, that can be used in every single project in communication with key-users who have to review the requirements and their corresponding process diagrams.

Auto hide tabbed form when emptyOpen

See screenshot below. The detail pane in the right bottom corner is only sporadically filled with information, depending on what is found in the form (if there is no record in the referenced table there is nothing to show. The marked pane is a FORM only screen). It would be great if somehow in the right top tabbed pane something like mimimum height (lets say 50%) could be defined in the screentype and a maximum height or 100% would automatically be used when there is nothing to show in the right bottom. Or something like autosize... Just an idea.

Set-up cube "layout settings" in modelOpen

Regarding the cube fields of a screen type. It would be nice to have an option to preset the following settings for a Cube within TSF; stacked, next to eachother, only hidden labels, only visible labels (four by one), only visible labels (two by two) so that the user will have these settings applied directly after opening a certain screen which contains a cube. Would like to see this feature within the following screen;

New Look-up control that combines the 'Suggestion contains' and 'Combo'Completed

For some of the fields in the application I work on it would be nice if I could use the best of both worlds ('Suggestion contains' and 'Combo'). So I want to be able to select a value from a Combo list but also be able to enter a string into the field which is contained in one or more of the items listed in the Look-up. Example: Field with look-up to city names: Amsterdam, Den Bosch, Groningen, Enschede, Apeldoorn and Utrecht. Then I can use the drop-down / Combo to select one of the cities. But I also would be able to put in 'sch' and find Den Bosch and Enschede and select one of them.

Show line number in SF where an error exists in the codeOpen

When compiling an object within the Software Factory, only an error message is shown (I'm talking about a DB2 project), indicating an error exists somewhere in de code. But the developer won't have a clue where to look for the error. First the code has to be copied to a SQL client and try the whole lot again to figure out on what line something is wrong. It would be helpfull if, like in the example below, the SF would mark the (first) found error, like in IBM's sql client below.

Option to switch post metadata to absolute timestamp instead of fuzzy timingsClosed

I have some difficulty putting a post on an internal timeline if it says "17 days ago" or "2 days ago". Is that newer or older than my question from the first week of February? Did someone answer this weekend after my post or was that last Friday before I posted? It would be nice to have a format like: "January 27, 17:53 (about two weeks ago)" Would that be possible?

Testcase recorder: change of tableOpen

My team and I want to use the testcase recorder more. However, there is one problem we have encountered: it is not possible to change tables in one test case. This limits us to recording very small steps of a single process. When we want to create a case for an entire demo scenario, this takes a lot of time. Would it be possible to include the changing of tables as an separate 'Test step'?

Show control procedure name while hovering functionality tabCompleted

When I have multiple functionality-tabs open, it would be helpful to have a popup of the selected CP name on mouse hover. More general, the name of the selected item could be shown for each tab.

Task to rename cube viewsCompleted

I'd like to rename cube views, but there is no task available to do so. Due to related cube view fields I can't do so manually.

Code template validation trigger with parameterOpen

While reviewing control procedure templates I continuously keep seeing trigger template in which people declare variables and set them. It would really be helpful if we could automatically check trigger templates for the use of variables, whilst not using a cursor. Variables are required when using a cursor. In nearly all other scenario's triggers do not require the use of variables. Most times, that these variables are being set, this will lead to errors when the inserted contains more then 1 record. Therefor I would like to suggest we add a validation (or an option within the code review screen) to check trigger templates for this mistake. This would significantly lower the chance that developers will make this mistake.

Disallow all prefilters inside a group to be inactiveCompleted

In certain cases we combine different data subsets in one table and use excluding prefilters in a prefilter group to switch between the different subsets. For example one table contains both fiscal and calendar years and with excluding prefilters it's possible to switch between the two. However if the end-user disables both prefilters both year types show up in a list. This means that the data set in the list becomes too large leading to wrong sums in the aggregation bar among other things. I would therefor like to propose the option to make it mandatory to have a prefilter active inside a prefilter group. In practice this would mean it's impossible to deactivate a prefilter by simply clicking on it. A user would have to activate another prefilter to deactivate the previously activated one. This would prevent a data set in the list to be too large.

Passing parameter values between forms / screensClosed

Information that you want to look up and pass through to your current activity / transaction is only possible if you develop the same screen for every transaction. Example: If you would like to look up stock information in a purchase order line and have a selection inserted in you current purchase order line you have to develop a screen for purchase. If you want to have the same functionality for a sales order line means you have to develop the same screen with stock info again! It should be possible to develop one screen / form from which values are passed to the screen from which you invoked this (now general) form.

Add option 'Keep Translations' to rename tasksCompleted

Quite often during app development id's of objects* are changed by use of a rename task (Alt+R). In many cases the translation can remain the same. For this an option 'Keep Translations' would be helpful. * Tables, Columns, Tasks, Task Parameters, etc..

Graph: Intervals manually adjustedOpen

At this moment the graph interval is generated from data, it determines the interval by itself. It would be nice if the graph interval is automatically generated from the data, but could be adjusted manually. To for example: steps in 0,5, steps in 1 or steps in 10.

Easier way to add tags to objectsCompleted

Currently the tag tab is only available within the full model object. It would be a whole lot easier, and faster, if these tag tabs were also available within the modellers such as: task (+parameters), report (+parameters), data model + subject modeller (tab and columns).

Hiding notification panel automatically.Completed

Is it possible to make the panel (in which notifications are to be displayed) automatically hidden when there are no more notifications. This is annoying because every time when you get a message in the panel, the panel rises and takes up screen space. Then, you have to empty the panel first before you can hide it again. I'd like to be able to make the panel disappear immediately after emptying.

Graphic planning: provide days that are made grey by defaultCompleted

If you want to make certain days grey in a resource scheduler (for example the weekend), you have to write a view that provides these days for each resource. If you zoom out the schedule, this view contains a lot of records, which is bad for the performance. You should be able to provide days that are made grey (or another colour) by default.

Suggestion to improve 'between' filter condition.Completed

When you use the filter condition 'between' you must always enter both the min and max. If you leave one empty, you will receive an error message. It would be nice if the condition would then automatically be adjusted.
