🚀 Ideas to be 10X faster - which SF workaround to eliminate?

Compared to other platforms, Thinkwise really excels in productivity. Especially the fact that creating a Data Model immediately results in a working Application is unparalleled! One of the current strategic priorities is to double down on this development speed of the Thinkwise Platform: we strive to make every Developer a mythical 10X Developer!There are a lot of angles we can work in order to achieve that goal. As a first, we want to fix unnecessary limitation in the Software Factory (SF). This means we want to tackle those things for which you as Developer have to create workarounds to get functionality working the way you(r users) need it.There are a lot of great Ideas out there and of course we'll review the existing ones. But I would also like to call upon the Community to highlight which existing Ideas would be your priority and/or to create new Ideas related to eliminating SF workarounds (please keep it to this scope in this topic).Could you please:Reply with Ideas that would

Filter Concepts - what's your opinion?Blog

Hi everyone!In this blog I want to take you through my thought process regarding the Filter, Sort, and Search functionalities in the Universal GUI. I’m introducing a couple of concepts for which I’m particularly curious to hear your thoughts. IntroductionOver time functionality has been gradually added, each of which has improved the Universal GUI. However, we also notice that it can resulted in a more cluttered and less intuitive user interface where certain elements are hidden or not very user-friendly.Based on my own review, drawing from my experiences and comparing with best practices around Filter, Sort, and Search, I came to the following conclusion:Filters are hidden: The filtering option is not immediately visible and is buried under the … menu. Unclear status of active filters: While filtered results are shown after applying a filter, the positioning of the filter interface is not always intuitive, making it hard to find and unclear whether a filter is currently active. Sort:

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

What causes the message 'We stopped hearing from Inidicum'

Since the new version the generation process is done by Indicium. However, often this message is displayed; It usually disappears/appears a few times and the generation does not fail, but still, It does not look good to me. What is the cause of this message?Thanks!

How to schedule a process flow?

I am trying to simply execute a task, without parameters with a process flow every hour.         Indicium Universal (2020.2.2) is running, but I don't see any activity. The version of IAM is 2020.1 and al hotfixes are done.   Could someone explain, step by step, what to do?

Windows GUI on RDS

One of our customers, who is using the Windows GUI (2019.2.17), is using up to 9 GB (!) of internal memory on the RDS with TSF_dotNET.exe. Most of the time TSF_dotNET.exe is using around 2 GB, but that is also too much. How is this possible and how can we limit this?

use comma instead of point

Hi,for the entire app we use a lot of fields with values with a comma. However, TW by defaults uses a point. Now this is not too bad for our friends in the us of a. But here in Europe, I would very much like to offer a comma in values. Is this possible? It is needed for money, size, weight, etc.

Indicium not running, why?

Again we run into problems, because Indicium stopped for some reason.I am quiet sure that everything is set up as mentioned in the documentation. But I am still not sure if all settings that are needed to let Indicium running are set. It would be helpful to have a simple checklist for this in the documentation. Now is it too much fragmented.Any ideas what else can be the reason for Indicium to stop running? In this case the customer has a on-premise configuration, so we cannot make use of Azure to monitor te webservice. For this it would be really a good idea to have the idea @Erwin Ekkel available in the GUI.  As a workaround I am now considering to make system flow that updates a sort of 'heartbeat’ date field in a little application status table and use a task + badge as in indicator when the last 'heartbeat’ is longer than 5 minutes ago.

Execute table task with a hyperlink

Is it now already possible to execute a table task or process flow with parameters, with a hyperlink in a html field? The goal is to open another document within the same browser tab, or as floating document.Can the syntax as described in “Improved HTML control with a deep link” (release notes 2024.2.14) be used?

IAM Scheduled system flow doesn't run anymore

Since a last IAM Sync today our scheduled system flow won't be executed anymore.  Last run was at 2.21: PM (UTC) today but the next run every 3 minutes will be updates, but the task won't be executed.We have both Indicium and Indicium Basic running against this IAM to support both Universal and Windows UI via Indicium.An IIS restart didn't fix the issue, nor a sync of the IAM did fix it.Running IAM 2021.1

OAuth login connector - oauthredirecturi Extended property not working?

I'm trying to test the recently released OAuth login connector support in the Universal GUI. Thanks to the Docs I conclude that I have to update the Extended property oauthredirecturi to switch from http to https.I did this on our TEST environment for the Application in which I am testing this We had the Indicium recycled after the changeIAM Extended propertyAzure AD error@Vincent Doppenberg However, the error still mentions the http uri. Could it be that the Universal GUI does not look at the IAM Extended property override?Another question: previously we always used the /signin-microsoft for this scenario in Insomnia. Why is this changed to oauth-callback and should we register both Reply URLs in the Azure AD App or update to oauth-callback for the OpenID Provider scenario too?

OAuth connector gives blank screen

I am trying to use the OAuth connector to make a synchronization with the tax service platform of the British Government.I have followed the docs and set everything up accordingly. However when the proces action of the OAuth login connector is reached, a white screen comes up and nothing is happening. I assume thinkwise is adding the client_id, scope and redirect_uri to the Authorization URL? I was hoping to find more information in the debug screen to find out what URL’s etc are being called, but that is not the case. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong here? I below screenshots you can see my settings.   Settings in OAuth servers      White screen.

Survey closed, see topic for results: using the Model content (Full model) screen

IntroductionThe Software Factory provides a menu item where it is possible to access screens related to a large part of your model, named “Model content” (formerly “Full model”).Because these screens are not shown in the context of a particular process, all available data in the screen is shown. This results in a lot of tab pages that display a lot of information.These screens are also present on another place in the SF, where the are optimized for the process they are part of. Think of:Data model > Tables: when you want to create a new table. At this stage you don't need to worry about the UI aspects of the table. User interface > Screen types: when you want to change a screen type. This screen contains a handy designer which can be used to visualize what your screen will look like. Processes > Tasks: when you want to introduce a variant for a task. The screen type here is set up hierarchically, which means there will be enough space to work with when a variant is introduced.

Integration with Matomo

Good morning,Yesterday we have tried out the extended property that should enable an integration between Thinkwise and Matomo: We would like to use Matomo for heatmaps and session recordings.Despite that we have set the extended property (and even installed the JS; https://developer.matomo.org/guides/tracking-javascript-guide), Matomo's dashboard is not receiving any input from our application built in Thinkwise. Could you explain what we need to do in order to integrate Matomo properly?Thanks in advance.

Make your logging data available in the GUI

This is an Archived topic. The solution is available in the Thinkstore inside the Software Factory.GoalWhen you have system versioned tables in your database, SQL Server logs all changes made to the data in those tables. This solution makes this logging data available for the user. This can look like this: SolutionThe solution in this topic creates views on all system-versioned tables. These views give the user access to the logging data. Also, all of these views get conditional layouts in the Software Factory. These conditional layouts give fields with changed values a color, which makes it easier to analyze the data.Dynamic model meta_view_historyThis code create a view definition for every system versioned table, along with conditional layouts to point out changed data.When you add this code to the dynamic model, you have to change a few values first:@screen_type_id                Your desired screen type: You can keep this null, or change the value.@original_date_column          Na

Universal GUI performance

What could be the reason a query is taking way more time through the GUI than direct on SMSS? If I copy this query into SMSS and execute it, it's done instantly. While via the GUI it takes quite some milliseconds.

Translating model objects in business logic

This is an Archived topic. The solution is available in the Thinkstore inside the Software Factory.In some cases it may be desirable to know the translation of a model object, such as a table, column or domain element, inside your business logic. See for example this idea: Translating domain elements | Thinkwise Community (thinkwisesoftware.com)Starting with the last releases of Indicium and soon available in the Windows and Web GUIs, a session variable is added that provides the language of the current user. This makes it possible to automatically generate a function that returns the translation of model objects in the user’s language. FunctionTo add this dynamic function to your Thinkwise application, first create a function subroutine named tsf_translate  with the following properties:Return value: scalar Return scalar domain: transl - nvarchar(200) Input parameters: type_of_object - int transl_object_id - varchar(100)  Control procedureNext, add a control procedure in the Function
