We have created a new screentype. At design the Available for user preferences is checked.   When we log in in the web version and open a previous designed screentype we have options to change it to other screen types   As you can see the new Screentype FF_detail_tiles is unavailable to choose. Also another problem is that when we set a specific table as default to the new screentype, another screentype can not be chosen       Is there somewhere an option that I overlooked, so that the new screentype is available to choose and when table is opened with the new screentype other screentypes can be chosen? At the moment we use verion 2019.02

 i've created the INI file for testing my application (thinkwise courses): Database , server name and credentials works fine in MS SQL Management studio. But i receive “'project_vrs'” when I try to execute the application….

Hello, I'm not sure if it happened after the update to version 2020.1, but if I do a creation and I get the question if I want to copy project folder then no new version folder will be created. Permissions on the directory are correct. It is noticeable that in the "Copy project version" screen Project is empty and the version is set to 1.00. I can select the project and set the correct version number and all is being update except the creation of the new folder. What could be the cause of this?

Is there a document stating the proper datatypes for the parameters of the FTP connector?

I get the following error when I execute a task which use the TSFReportMailer in the Windows GUI of our application. I receive this error message since the installation of Microsoft Office 2019. Which steps do I need to take to fix this problem?

Hi all, After upgrading to the 2020 we are unable to use the Indicium viewer anymore. Is this a known problem, or is there something wrong on my side?  

I can see in the session log who is logged in and when he/she has done this using what kind of software. Which is nice. But i have no idea how long this information will stay in this logging. Can anyone tell me how long the information in the session log will be saved? And is there a way to influence this period?

I'm trying to monitor or find out how to deal with 'test coverage' using unit tests in the SF. Let's say i'm having the subject "Project" with a number, description, start date and an end date. I have applied a constraint that the start date must be equal to or before the end date. To prevent the user of having an error message that makes no sense (*1 see image), I've added a default concept telling the user he's doing things that are not possible. For this default a unit test can be added. And also for other concepts (layouts, task etc.) unit tests can be created. I want to measure that all SQL code (logic) is tested properly. When you generate the unit test for the situation above, you'll get this: create procedure def_project(   @default_mode       tinyint,     -- 0 = add, 1 = update   @import_mode       tinyint,     -- 0 = regular, 1 = import row, 3 = import   @cursor_from_col_id varchar(255), -- column that triggered the default   @cursor_to_col_id   varchar(255) output, -- cursor

I'm wondering if there are any people here having experience with deploying the same application to different companies combined with the usage of the same IAM database. What we're doing is that we deliver the same application to multiple companies. Due to the pricing plan we apply we are in control of the amount of users and what modules (roles) we let them use. I currently don't know exactly how we could set up or use IAM to have one (only 1) system administrator per company that can manage their users, e.g. change permissions, but not adding new users or modules they don't have access to. When taking a look at the Administrator roles (https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/iam/administrators.html) and trying them out, it looks to me that they don't really apply to us. Alternatively, we could build another application on top of IAM dealing with all these issues, but that's really something we don't want to do I guess? Another alternative is to deploy per customer 1 IAM database, but

I'm trying to update the Indicium Universal to 2020.1.5. When I try to run it (server/indicium/iam/iam) I get an http 500 error. The log contains the following error: 2020-03-17T08:43:09.2018147+01:00 [FTL] Application startup exception (6c57a5ba)System.NotSupportedException: Er is een poging gedaan een assembly te laden vanuit een netwerklocatie.

While developing an app for the Thinkwise Mobile GUI, it would be nice to see the results in the viewer. I use the latest version of the viewer (2020.1.004), but I get the error message "There are no applications available”.   Indicium is running and the URL (that ends with /api/sf) returns:  SQLSERVER_SF: 2018.3 I assume that I need to do something in IAM. But what? I created a user “Uitvoerder” (for testing the app) and added this user in IAM (from the SF). I also linked the usergroup “sf_developers” to this user. The application pool user, used for Indicium, was also added to the usergroup “sf_developers” in IAM. But I keep on getting this error. Who can help me out here? What am I doing wrong?

The documentation about shortcuts tells me that you can press “Ctrl + Page up” and “Ctrl + Page down” for navigating between tabs. This works for the Windows client, but on Chrome this switches between tabs in the Chrome browser, Firefox ignores it. Did I find here a defect, or an exception for web browsers? The same for the shortcut Alt + 1, works on Windows switching back to the first tab (Grid or form), but doesn't in web. Also Ctrl + C doesn't work on the web, where it does on Windows. Ctrl + Shift should do ‘Automatic alignment of columns’ according to the docs. When I press it nothing happens. When I take a look a the context menu (right mouse click in grid) I see “Resize Columns (Ctrl + Shift + +). I think here's missing a + in the docs. Ctrl + P should open a print dialog, it does in Windows, but doesn't on web (not even the default print feature of Chrome i.e.). I notice in the docs there is ‘Ctrl’ + Spatie. That should be Space(bar)? Is this going to be fixed in the software

The cube supports the chart types ‘Gantt2D’ and ‘GanttSideBySide2D'. Has anyone expierence with one of these charts? I'd like to know how I should setup the cube fields to show a Gantt-chart.  

When we try to execute a task on a Android device with Indicium 2020.1.006, the app draws the Execute and Cancel button somewhere in the middle of the input parameters. This does not happen in the Mobile GUI.    

Setting conditional formatting without setting a specific column and without condition is now only working in grids. It can be used to show a data in a grid with a different font. Unfortunately this is not working for the same table for fields in a form.  Why not?   

Under user preferences > Subject configuration there's a checkbox: It's not really documented for end users, but I found something similar I think it should do: https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/subjects.html#start-empty-with-filter If I have the checkbox above checked, it doesn't what I expect it should do: After opening the subject via the menu, it should immediate open the ‘Filter’ dialog (as described here). If I check the box in the subject, it does show an filter.

Are there besides Anti-virus exclusions any best practices to optimize the speeds of a Thinkwise application? This could be on the cliënt and/or server side. For instance to increase the start of the application.

Hello, If you want to create a Process schedule in version 2020.1 and have selected "Once" at frequency type and you want to deploy this schedule to IAM it looks like the sync is crashing. But behind the GUI screen there may be a message that NULL is not allowed in column "occur_every_time_unit" in table IAM.dbo.process_flow_schedule. The reason for this is a difference in metadata between the SF and IAM for this column. In the SF, NULL is allowed. For now I changed properties of the column in IAM.  

I've noticed there are updates regarding the unit testing part, especially for triggers bound to tables. But I've noticed that I can select views in the data sets > Data rows, so I tried :-). Unfortunately that doesn't work, and maybe that is OK. Question: Should views be selectable over here? If yes, then how to fix the following error: The unit test was aborted while this was not expected. Transaction count after EXECUTE indicates a mismatching number of BEGIN and COMMIT statements. Previous count = 0, current count = 1. ERROR [42000] Microsoft[SQL Server]Cannot alter 'dummy_view' because it is not a table. ERROR [42000] Microsoft[SQL Server]Statement(s) could not be prepared. Hint: Debugger shows this: alter table [dummy_view] disable trigger all; Dummy_view isn't a table. If not, then they should be removed from the drop down. I’d almost assume that the data set should be created using tables only, but when it's also possible to do this by views (we have a lot in stead of in

I've created a new version of an application and have synchronised it to the application IAM. I see the latest version in the Project overview, but when I select the newest version the tab Application is empty. Any ideas why?

After the upgrade of the IAM and SF from version 2019.1 to 2020.1.12 the validation of projects if failing with the following message: Aren’t these included in the upgrade?

Since the upgrade to 2020.1.12,  ClickStart is telling me that there is a new version available when I start multiple instances of Thinkwise. Is this normal?

how can i default minimize the ribbon on start up

Hi, when I open the IAM application trough a web app installation, and want to open Form tab of selected end user application, we receive the message: “An error has occurred in the application.” error in iam When we click the error we get the following “helpful” popup:   helpfull popup  Is there a way to get any information about the exception that occurred? For example a logfile where more details of the error are logged? That way we can get an indication of what is wrong, and possible how to fix this. Kind Regards, Edwin  

The debug screen in the SF shows annoying behavior when minimizing and again increasing the popup.     In addition to the maximize button, it is desirable to have a button that can be used to switch back to the last settings (height, width and column widths). Or consider allowing the maximize button to work this way.
