Are there minimum system requirements for Android devices? Would you like to give us feedback? And is there also a best practice on android requirements?

When a template code conflict occurs during a merge session it will be possible the merge the code via an external 'merge' program. TSF requests the existence of a 'merge' program like WinMerge or Kdiff3. I'm not really a fan of either. We always use UltraCompare as a 'merge' program. Is it possible to use UltraCompare as the default 'merge' program? And how do I set this up? I found a page on ultraedit.com which may be of use: https://www.ultraedit.com/support/tutorials-power-tips/ultracompare/version-control-comparison.html

Could someone explain this error message: Something went wrong while processing this report: Ongeldige index. (Uitzondering van HRESULT: 0x8002000B (DISP_E_BADINDEX)) Or, is there an overview of all known error messages?

We have a Reporting Service installed and configured to look at multiple instances/databases (development and test). All records in table rapport_queue are processed for the first connection. When a record is added in the second application, it is not processed by the Reporting Service. After a restart of the service, all records with report_status = 0 are processed correctly. New records will not be processed after a restart. We have uninstalled the Reporting service (3.00) and installed the latest version (3.20) with no different result. What could be the problem? Config: connectionString=" Data Source=CFS-TWDB01\THINKWISE; Initial Catalog=CF_FINAS; Integrated Security=true; User Id=; Password=; Persist Security Info=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> connectionSt

When I change the color and font for form buttons in the theme, this doesn’t affect the task buttons. How can I change to color for the task buttons? Especially for the web version (with grey buttons and white text).

Is a separate license necessary for the use of DevExpress Reporting or is this part of the suite? Is a viewer needed or is this standard in the GUI? How can I import a Crystal Report? I do not see an option to import Crystal Reports, as described in the release notes.

Symptom: not able to select rows in the Grid of the Web GUI, while the Windows GUI Grid allows it. Cause: In the SF the "Allow navigation" rights checkbox is disabled for the subject. Explanation: The Web GUI disables navigation between rows overall based on "Allow Navigator". The Windows GUI only uses this setting to disable navigation buttons of form and ribbon. There is an extended property available for the Windows GUI to copy the behaviour of the Web GUI: code:useallownavigationasrights = yes Due to technical difficulties the Web GUI doesn't met the Windows behaviour (yet).

Will there be a Dutch version of the Software Factory?

Sometimes I use a task (button) to start a process flow. The task in itself actually does nothing, it only calls the process flow. For these kind of tasks I use the tasktype ‘Stored procedure’ and leave the template empty. I noticed that there are other tasktypes available that are not described (like ITP Interface). Could one of these tasktypes be a better option here?

Can anyone tell me what control is in use for the embedded browser in the Windows GUI (in the document preview)? I have read that the browser used in winForms is based on IE 4. For one of our features we rely on this browser component, so it would be great to know exactly what we are looking at.

Lately, we’ve received the question from several parties (app suppliers like WerkbonApp) whether it’s possible to realize a connection with them. Because of that, I’ve started some intensive testing with Indicium (2018.1 build 2). While doing this, I’ve encountered several problems and questions that I’d like to submit. 1. Is there another authentication way than Basic Auth.? If so, which one and how can I apply this? 2. Why is it possible to filter by $select, $filter and $orderby separate but not with a combination of these? 3. Why is the $top=10 parameter allowed on a table but not on a view? 4. How can I track down the cause of a problem when the system returns a particular HTTP error code (like the 500 internal server error)? I’m aware of the subfolder Logs from Indicium on the (web)server. Are there any other methods to tackle this problem? 5. Is it possible to request both master and detail records (li

I get the following message when calling a report: The RPC server is unavailable. - Do you recognise this message? - Is this possible because there is no printer installed on our server?

If I change the setting of my application (from Dutch to English) the order of the date changes (to month/day/year from day/month/year). Is it possible to change the language with changing the layout of the date fields? I tried using an extended property called CustomDateMask, which has no effect.

I would like to know more about the possibilities of Extenders. In my opinion I am missing a few Extender Types? The extenders which I now have available to me: Custom_display_format Default_editable_cube Maps Resource_scheduler I seem to have read somewhere that there are Extenders available for grid grouping and multiline headers. Who can tell me more about it?

Is a validation code always issued by the web GUI, is it also possible to use the ‘Authy’ app from Twilio? Or is the Twilio service only used to send an SMS?

The exchange link is running. However, it only synchronizes emails for 1 account. This while the exchange users procedure returns 2 email addresses. What could be wrong here?

Is it possible to indicate an alternative path for the Cache directory in the INI file for Windows GUI?

We have removed the language for a project in the SF. After synchronization, the language remains selectable in IAM. How can we prevent this? Does a language automatically disappear when there are no project versions that refer to it?

When I want to use a view in the application, there are three options: automatic, customizable and template. Normally, I work with a template but in this case a cube is required where the data is in a table. I was planning on making a variant for the table but that doesn’t fulfil the needs in this case. I thought it would be possible to make this view without a template, but this doesn’t seem to work. My question here is: what is the difference between customizable and automatic? And why is the field ‘view_from_clause’ not customizable in both? And if it’s not customizable, why is the content not emptied? Anyway, while generating the piece of code between ‘select’ and ‘from’ is left blank, despite I’ve defined 4 fields in the view, and they do exist on the table. What am I doing wrong? Why isn’t this work? Am I still obligated to make a template? See the two print screens below:

When moving an IAM environment from one server to another, the sever file links aren’t correct. It is not possible to adjust these because you’re not authorized in IAM by default. How can this be changed?

We have a separate icon for our standard software application ‘JP-Bouwmanagement’ that is linked to our Thinkwise application. In the G8 we were able to include this icon in a shortcut by adding a INI-parameter ‘ApplicationIcon’ to the shortcut with a link to the icon. It looks like this is not working in the Windows GUI 2018.1.17. A standard Thinkwise icon appears on the Windows taskbar, were the custom icon used to be, our users a not familiar with this icon. Is this a known problem and will this be resolved?

I’ve created an new Crystal Reports report. When I open this from my development PC it’s working proper (see print screen below) But when the user starts this from the test environment, from a different PC, the database name is not filled. The following screen pops up: When I check the debugger, I notice that the database is filled (see print screen b

ETC has separate different GUI applications in IAM with different administrators. In the current situation it is possible for an administrator to make himself admin of the other application. Is it possible to separate admin rights in one IAM?

With the report mailer function we export a Crystal Reports report to an Excel document. This doesn’t automatically set the column width correctly (see image below). Is it possible to change this?
