Responsive field position

With the help of the breakpoints, we are now able to activate the desired screen layout for any screen size.But, is it also possible to control the behavior of the UI from the model in such a way that fields are placed below each other instead of next to each other on a smaller screen?It would be nice if we only had to scroll the screen vertically on mobile devices to see all the fields. Desktop screen: Mobile screen:

Pre and post fixes

In most (web based) applications it's common to use pre and post fixes, like this on in the omage. That way you can easily indicate how the data in the field should be interpreted. Usecases are currencies, percentage, wheight, degrees, etc. What are the plans for the universal in that respect?

Process flow not triggered after edit in grid

I'm trying to execute a web service call after modifying a record. According to the documentation it can be done via a process flow using “Modify record”: https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/process_flows.html#modify-record It says the following: This process action will also work in combination with modifications in the list. If this process action is not a start action, then the GUI will give preference to a form to deal with the action. If there is no form present, then the GUI will try to find a grid. If a record in the grid is modified, is successfully stored and there is a follow-up action that can be called, then a possible row switch action that handles the save of the data will be prevented. Problem I'm having, is that when editing in grid the proces flow isn't triggered. It's triggered when adding or editing via form, and also when adding in grid it's triggered. But not when editing in grid. What am I doing wrong? I have the following process flow defined: And this

adding record thru grid fails

Some users reported some weird behaviour that seem to have originated with the upgrade from the 2023.1.16.0 Windows GUI to the 2023.3.12.0 Windows GUI a few month ago.These users were still on the old version due to IT forgetting to update their shortcuts 🤐The issues I come across are that when a grid has a dropdown as first column the dropdown stays empty until the user clicks in it again triggering the refresh of the dropdown.I fixed this several times by forcing the focus on that dropdown thru the DEFAULT without questioning why it failed.Yesterday and today I got complaints that when I add a record from inside the grid the dropdown is not shown: https://www.screencast.com/t/stNdFFzpI tried it in the old 2023.1.16.0 Windows GUI and everything was working fine.Now my hope is that this is also not a problem in the new 2024.1 release of Thinkwise!?Can anyone confirm this before I start upgrading a production environment.

Drag and drop disable certain rows & combine with copy

We are experimenting with drag and drop in the Universal GUI and it looks really promising. For a certain application we are trying to link rows from one grid to rows in another grid. This works fine but we don’t want to allow users to drag a row to another row that is already linked. Is this possible? Using the context logic disables it for the entire table. We could of course show a message using the task logic and use conditional formatting to make it more intuitive but I’ve seen the cursor change to a forbidden sign while dragging across other tables. Is this something we can program as well?Also, if a user can’t find a match in the target table while dragging, we would like to allow them to drop the row on the table rather than a row so we can create a row for them. I can’t seem to get this to work, the drag and drop task parameters get filled with target row columns wherever I release the drag.The docs mention the following:Does this mean it is possible to drag to the table rath

Occasional blocked report print preview pop-up

We use Universal and have reports with the report action "Print preview". When opening these reports the browser sometimes blocks the print preview pop-up.I see that Chrome by default blocks pop-ups and redirects. When I add the site in Chrome to the list of allowed sites to send pop-ups and use redirects, the print preview pop-up isn't occasionally blocked anymore. I find it strange though that the pop-up is working while the browser is set to block pop-ups.Is there a way to prevent the occasional block of pop-ups when the users has not allowed pop-ups?If not, is it possible to detect and notify that the user has pop-ups blocked, because in Chrome its not clearly shown a pop-up has been blocked.Or is there an other solution for this issue?

Is there a way to make a column primary key when the table/view is already created?

Is there a way to make a column “primary key” even when the table already existed with no primary keys at all? There are things you have to consider, right? All the already existing data needs to be formatted to this new primary key, so it can’t be null So how do you alter this data? Do you have to manually do this in data conversion or SSMS?

Filter condition not working as intented in process flow

Hi all, I am running into a problem with a filter that is being filled within a process flow. The flow fills the ‘dossiernummer’ from a previous screen. This 'dossiernummer’ needs to be used to filter out that specific 'dossiernummer’ in the next screen. Filling the filter column works perfectly, however the filter condition does not seems to reflect the actual filtering. In the image below you can see that instead of 'not equal to’ the filter seems to use the filter condition 'equal to’. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Behavior of Card List with touch screen devices

It appears that the Universal GUI is programmed to always open the Form when clicking on the record in the card list. Correct?A form is not always present for a table/screen and in that case you want a specific detail tab to be activated when clicking a record.I seem to remember that this was possible in the 'old' mobile GUI.Is this something that is still being worked on or can this already be controlled in some way from the model?

Windows GUI crashed several times a day in Azure

Lately (since about 2 weeks) the TW Windows GUI has been crashing very regularly in Azure's RDP, causing the app to fail for all users. This happens several times a day. GUI: 2023.3.12.0Platform version: 2023.3 Windows update Azure:2024-03 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 22H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5035853)Successfully installed on 3/13/2024. Het update log geeft aan rond half 1 in de nachtSome feedback from our analysis Ik heb ook even zitten kijken in de monitoring en het heeft volgens mij niets te maken met de hoeveelheid memory, er is namelijk ten tijde van de crash van 16:50 nog ruim 40 GB beschikbaar. In de Event Viewer zie ik wel regelmatig crashes van ThinkWise, deze bijvoorbeeld: Met net daarvoor een .NET Runtime error: Deze foutmelding ligt echt in de hoek van de ThinkWise software zelf, niet bij te weinig resources van de VM.

Multirow task execution

When executing a task for a selection of rows, the user interface first executes the context procedure for every single row to check if the user is allowed to execute the task for that row, and then executes the task for each permitted row. This can be quite time consuming, especially for web clients where the progress is also reported back to the client.To speed up multirow task execution, a new feature has been developed to execute tasks for a selection of rows.To enable multirow execution for a task:Add an XML-typed parameter to the task Make sure Popup for each row is switched off Set the MultiselectParameterID extended property with the name of the parameterWith multirow execution enabled for a task, when the user interface executes the task, the specified XML parameter is filled with the parameter values for all rows. Even if only one row is selected.The parameter is only filled when the task is executed. The XML is therefore not visible in the popup or available in the default a

Indicium as service: license check log every 11 to 13 seconds?

We have a Thinkwise application installed at several customer sites.Part of our implementation is running Indicium as a service (using nssm.exe). We have a scheduled task to restart the service every early morning, so separate log files are created per date, in the ..\indicium\log folder.At a new implementation, I notice that Indicium logs its license check every 11 to 13 seconds: This does not happen at our other customer sites; there this will only be logged once - at startup of the service.How can I disable this check running or logging so frequently? I don't want to flood the log file with unnecessary log messages.

Allow wildcards in the PF step Change filter

Hi, I have a task for searching something.Start Task from menu. Enter value (shipment number), open document - start empty, change filters.When I enter the exact value it works ok. Open the table and show the row. For example: Shipment number: 22fe0530This will output this query in the debugger: as t1where (t1.[shipment_number] = N'22fe0530')However, I want people to be able to use the filter similar to ‘ctrl - G Filter’ .When I set ‘Allow Wildcards’ in my PF step ‘Change Filters’, it still searches for the exact entered value, giving this; as t1where (t1.[shipment_number] = N'22FE*')When filtering in the ‘ctrl-G filter’ it outputs; and (t1.[shipment_number] like N'%22fe%')Which will result in several rows that match. The documentation states that the COL value must be EQUAL, so the = makes sense. But then.. What to do with the wildcard?In short, can it be done to output all rows with Shipment_number like 22fe% - when entering a value in a task and then open the document, and show t

Configure expire-time of cookie in Indicium

Hi, When logging in to the Indicium GUI, a session token is returned in the form of a cookie (named `.AspNetCore.Identity.Application`) upon successful login.By default, according to this topic answer, this token is valid for 30 minutes and automatically extended with every request.However, our users will sometimes not touch the GUI for hours, because they are busy doing work for which they do not require the application.In this case, having to log in again each and every time you don’t touch the GUI for any amount of time longer than 30 minutes, can get quite annoying.Is it possible for us to configure the expire time for these tokens, so that they remain valid for a longer amount of time? Thanks in advance!

Hello. When i edit a form, and look at the database event log, i see my cursor_from_col_id immediately filled out, and the cursor_to_col_id is never filled out, not even when i change fields.
