Hi,Is it possible to generate a timeline within Universal? Does anyone have a creative idea for creating something similar to the example below? 

Has anyone managed to reduce the row height or the distance between records in a formlist?The field spacing settings in TSF do not seem to have any effect. It may be possible with custom css, but I think a test-data-id is missing to be able to control this properly.By placing the lines a little closer together, we get more data on the screen and the end users have to scroll less. In addition to this, I think it will be possible to adjust the height by adding some lines in custom.css but we mis a data-testid for tsf-emotion-....  

It seems that the Software Factory doesn't handle deleted objects well in branches that are kept open after merging (tested in SF 2023.1). This is demonstrated with the following scenario:Create branch DEVELOP (from MAIN) Add column X in branch DEVELOP Merge DEVELOP back to MAIN and keep the branch open Delete column X in branch DEVELOP Merge DEVELOP back to MAINThe result in the MAIN with this scenario is that column X still exists in the MAIN after step 5. We assume at step 5 the SF makes a delta from the starting point of the branch with the current state of the MAIN and the current state of the branch and determines that column X was added in the MAIN after creating the branch. However, this is not the result that we want/expect (Column X should not exist in the MAIN after step 5).When the scenario is changed to:Create branch DEVELOP (from MAIN) Add column X in branch DEVELOP Merge DEVELOP back to MAIN (make the branch inactive) Create branch DEVELOP_2 from MAIN Delete column X in

We use the windows GUI version 2024.2.13 with an ini file that does not tell anything about the used language.When we start the application on some Windows 11 machines the login screen appears in German. As far as i can see the windows settings are all set to Dutch.How do I make the windows GUI login screen appear in the language that is set by the Windows language?

The standard keyboard shortcuts for the Universal GUI as explained here don't really work with the default browsers we use (Google Chrome / Microsoft Edge). Of the list of keyboard shortcuts only the Esc and Ctrl + Enter work as expected.Ctrl + + / Ctrl + - are used for browser zoom functionality Ctrl + e is used to trigger the search engine Ctrl + alt + + for Copy seems to do nothingIs there a way to change these shortcuts for Universal GUI (including the tooltip text)?

Hi everyone, I was looking for a way for web GUI resource scheduler to zoom out the times scale showing 8 months instead of 7 by default. I checked the documentation and the full model module in SF and I found the zoom factor under the web and windows setting in the extender, but they work differently from each other. In web its designed to be Boolean implying we are only enabling the feature and, in the windows GUI we are giving instruction what level of zoom are we requiring. Is there any other way of zooming out the time scale for the web GUI?My current Time Scale  I don’t find any difference after i enabled this option 

Hi,A long time ago we found out that the Export to Excel/Word functionality within DevExpress can not be used in the SF in combination with the WinGui en Indicium Basic.Will this be possible when using the normal Indicium?Which functionality within DevExpress can be used in the SF.Converting DevExpress reports to Word or Excel is something our customers really would like to be able to do!Thanks, Joost

I've created a cube in a Proof of concept application, and I'm observing some strange behaviour.  in my column I have a date field and a responsefield that can be a value from 1 to 4 (it indicates the level of satisfaction)weird thing 1: if I have a dimension based on the score field and value based on the score field, in the pivot table the dimension gets substituted by the value field.    You see here that the categoy is average score, and in the pivot tabele you see it's actually dimension. weird behaviour number 2 if I use the count on the response field, and the amount is 3, which is a value of my element_list, in the pivot table it does not show 3 it shows the translation of the element item 3.  Weird thing 3:  if I have two fields based on the score field, say total count and average, when drag and dropping one of the two it is always substituted by the other one.  it basically means It's not possiblle to have to value items based on the same field?  

I have the same problem as in this post, but in another context.Some info about our application:Built for Windows GUI RDMBS: SQL Server  Dozens of customers will use our application (installed at their SQL server) Users are logging in using ‘Windows authentication’ We're still on IAM/Indicium 2022.2 (planning to upgrade) Indicium is running as a service process, listening on port 5000 What I want to achieve: users log in with their own name, so IAM application roles and rights can be used users do not need to be known in SQL security; so the SQL connection from the IAM application should be handled by either: - a service account; - or a SQL account; - or an application role.Question 1:How can I achieve this for the Windows GUI?Related to this, I created a user with ‘Authentication’ set to ‘IAM', and changed the password.I started the application using an INI file containing "Authentication = iam”. When starting, the IAM login shows but after entering username and password, the error “L

Hi!Is het nog mogelijk om een watermerk in een DevExpress rapport zelf te plaatsen? Ik heb geprobeerd een watermerk als afbeelding (in plaats van url) te importeren in het rapport, maar na het opslaan wordt deze weer verwijderd. Wanneer ik het rapport preview voordat ik het opsla, is het nog wel te zien op het rapport.Is dit een bekend probleem of doe ik iets verkeerd?  

I would like to export a SF project with version 2021.1 and import it on another SF (on another system) with version 2021.2. What is the easiest way to accomplish this? I have read the article about the stored procedure (copy_project_vrs). But it seems this only works with the same SF version: 

Hello.

I also checked the content for the data file and it's ok.Does anyone have any idea how I can solve this problem. 

Hi,I have an environment set up in Azure App services.When I log in I can’t see my application, only the IAM and I’m presented with the following screen.I’ve already restarted the WebGui and indicium azure app services but that didn’t fix the issue.How can this be fixed ?  

Does anyone have experience with printing SSCC barcodes (GS1-128) on a SSRS report?Font Code128 doesn't seem to work for this type of barcode. How can this be resolved?I'm trying to get an output (Pallet Label) like below: 

As the title specifies, I am wondering what a column returns when there are no rights specified for a certain role.In this case, I want to assign the value 1 to a column, so when a certain user with a certain role logs on, he sees a screen in a certain configuration. When a user on another role logs on, without rights on this column, what does this return?If it returns a NULL value when called upon, that would be the most ideal. Then I can build a layout control procedure around that logic, but we are simply not sure what it returns when roles are turned off. Does it return anything in the first place?

I am working with a grid where auto-edit is applied. In the documentation (https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/process_flows_actions#add-row) it says the ‘add row’ process flow action should not be triggered, but it does when the row is added by pressing enter when the cursor is at the last column of the grid. Is this a bug? I would like the process action to be triggered when the row is added regardless, but I believe that should not happen as is explained in the documentation. What is the intended behavior here? And is there another way to trigger a process flow action when a row is added on an auto-edit grid?

As the template names are long, the parameter has been set to a custom width. But this width is nog used in the universal GUI.   Also the layout (column setting) is not used. This might have effect on many of our tasks, which results in huge impact to switch to universal GUI 

Hello, I was referencing this community post Upload multiple files using the Universal GUI to implement the bulk drag and drop file insertion and I have encountered an issue with the target table’s page not being found when I execute the API call.By using an HTTP request platform, I have made the simplest call possible to the table in question (both with and without authentication), for testing purposes, making sure to include the correct URL (the pattern being “{serverURL}/{appIDorAlias}/{table name}”), however, I always get a 404 status in return.Does this have anything to do with the API endpoint not being visible and/or is there any further configuration that has to be done (in IAM, for instance), or am I simply missing anything? Thank you.

When accessing the Universal GUI from the web browser, Windows authentication is first requested. Only after ignoring (canceling) this pop-up will you arrive at the login screen.How can we get rid of the first pop-up?   

What is the status of the Global Configurations in the IAM? since which version they are neglected?  It used to be that you had the option to set the globalconfiguration in the INI file and it would overrule the extended properties at application level.Platform version 2024.2 doesn't do this anymore. Can we reinstate the behaviour in any way? Or what are the alternatives? Now I have to have 2 applications with distinct session variable (ID) .. this used to be one where the global configuration steered the session variable (ID).

Hi,In Universal I would like to have Auto-edit in grid on, and have multi-select - so a user can execute the tasks. However, it appears it's on or the other. Is this correct?Thanks, Blommetje

I've got a question from one of my key users, he noticed that the Description field for a specific view in the universal gui (we still run TW2025.1) shows as an empty spce while in the windows gui this same field is visible and display it's contents: I have no idea on where to start to debug this.

Is it possible to test offline functionality in the 'debug viewer’.

Hi, We have implemented MS Graph API solution to send emails from the ThinkWise application to internal and/or external contacts, including attachments.What we face now is that users has to type the full email-address(es) manually in case they would send it to extra mailboxes. Outlook has autosuggest/ auto complete based on your contacts.Are there suggestions to make this more easy to do this in the ThinkWise form / fields?Thanks in advance.

When trying to install a solution, I first got a pop-up asking me to login, after which I get stuck on the following screen:
