Automatic row selection in Universal

@rbiram We will adress the focus issue. We agree that the focus should not be drawn when opening the screen. What the perfomance is concerned, unfortunally that is not caused by the focus, but by the default edit mode, that stages the records for editing basically on entry and tries to set the focus. So focus is a consequence of edit mode not the other way around. We are currently in the process of rethinking the way default edit mode works. Both issues will be planned in the near future, but refactoring the default edit mode might take a little longer.How bad is your performance? The issue can be enhanced for the worst by other things. We agree that the staging the records costs some perfomance, but it should not be very noticable.

Overrule taskbar position in combination with Action bar component

@Dave Bieleveld Starcode Hotfixes are time consuming and we generally only do this if software is unusable. That is not the case here. A ‘hotfix' release has to go through the same QA as a normal release.

Taskbar always present

This is somewhat similar. But I think you could already solve you're problem by adding the screenTypeProperty ‘toolbar_order’ and just ommitting the taskbar from that.See these release notes:

Filters for HTML/Multiline fields

@Harm Horstman That sound like a fine solution. You can do that without any change in the platform and it might actually be less confusing for a user to have a somewhat normal text control.

Status cube features

Hi Harm,It is always very confusing what we mean by column totals? The column (series) grand totals are supported right now, but that is the total to the far right of a single row. Not yet supported, but on the planning for the last sprint of Q1 / mid April release is the row (category) grand total. That is the total row below al the other rows.Things that are not supported but will be before Q2category(row) grand total conditional layout double click deeplink to table rows behind the pivot expand / collapse nested series (columns)Things that are not supported and not yet plannedToggling of the category (row) subtotals  Collapsing the parent row when expanding a category Setting the column width Editing in the pivot grid

Behavior of Card List with touch screen devices

Harm,Actually the awnser is ‘it depends’. The only trigger for it jump to the form is if the form goes into edit mode *except when this happens because of default editmode*. If there is no edit, I would expect it to stay on the card list. Other than that, the Universal GUI has less implicit behaviour than the ‘old’ mobile gui.However you completely control what happens. If you set the executeTaskOnTouch screentype property to ‘true’, a cardlist on a touch device will fire the Double Click Task as defined under menu User Interface > Subjects > tab Default/Variant > tab Links > tab TasksThis task can be a re-usable dummy task that you use as the starter for a process flow.Once you have a process flow. You can make the GUI do what you want.

Customization of Pivot tables (Universal)

Hi Nick,The following functionalities are on the short term planning and will drop somewhere in the upcoming months:1 - Showing row totals (see related topic, I cannot get this working while column totals are working)  4 - Conditional formatting. There seems to be a setting for this. but it does not change anything in Universal?The others are good ideas and are on the bigger backlog.

Filters for HTML/Multiline fields

Harm, this will be possible in some way. For html it is also kinda tricky. We feel we should maybe only support the ‘contains’ filter option. Because all the other ones are fairly impossible. What should ‘starts with’ do? Extract the text from between the html tags? Or should the user go ‘start with’ <html?Would you need any other filter option than ‘contains’ on a HTML or multine field??

Context menu (Right-click) support for Universal GUIPlanned

We are actually in the process of re-thinking about this. And are currently designing the UI/UX for this. Our intention are to make this available when the user is on a non-touch device. So on the desktop only. And have a touch alternative for this at some time down the path.We are still setting up all our priorities so I will be somewhat broad. It won't make Q1, but it will be this year. I hope before the summer.

Model actionbar elementsPartially completed

We have looked at this idea and we think we really like it.We have now allowed for setting the different sections via the toolbar_order screencomponent property, but you now only do this for the ‘main’ toolbar component. We now think we should allow you to have multiple Toolbar screen components with their own toolbar_order screen component property. This would allow you to make any combination.@Harm Horstman technically it isn’t part of the parity program, the placing of all the individual screen components like the ‘Prefilter bar’ as a screen component is, but we think this might be a really good addition so we moved this up in the first quarter planning.

Any idea when we can expect the release of the Import wizard?

It has been available since the 2023.3.10 release of universal; If you do not see this option in the overflow menu; please check the settings on the subject. In the software factory under User Interface > Subjects > Settings > Permissions. Under Other ‘Import’ should be checked.

Keyboard Shortcuts for Grids Universal GUI

Yes this is actually still on the backlog. It has its challenges and has not won the priority fight so far. Since it is already november and it did not make to the current sprint, 2023 is not looking good for this feature. But it will otherwise end up in the mix in Q1

You can now actually set the property ‘Sliding pagination’ under Scheduler views. When the highest level is year, the scheduler will use the current date as a starting point.

Open document as floating document - Universal

Currently it is on position 24 on our backlog. Our team does about 20-22 stories per sprint, but has got some more capacity lately. So this feature could still make it onto the current sprint (ends 7 aug). It will most likely make it on the next sprint (ends 4 sept). And worst case is bumbed down in priority on more sprint but will then surely be done in oktober.

I would like to be able to bookmark my current documents within the universal guiOpen

@Kasper Reijnders Thank you for your feedback. We thought we had an issue with using the alias in the case it wasn’t defined. And we wanted to release a first version that works for back and forward navigation. But we know that bookmarking is an important feature to and we will be working on a version that will use the alias (when defined) as soon as possible.

Business Intelligence - Repeating data on each row in cubes.

@Marco Kleiweg At this point exporting the cube to excel is still on the backlog for Universal. However I will add this as a requirement to the export story. Maybe even as an option box the user can tick.

@Arie V Dividing the header more based on the available space instead of just 50/50 is indead already on the backlog. I've tagged you as a stakeholder on that story to;) And I bumbed it up in the priority order.

Word wrap multiline in Cardlist (repsonsive)Open

@Freddy Lets say everything is word wrapped. That will mean that grid rows, cardlist items, menu items will all vary in height. So that is definitely not on the table.But if you feel that this is actually a bug, than you should report it as a bug. Right now here on this page it is a community idea.

Word wrap multiline in Cardlist (repsonsive)Open

@Freddy Currently the status of this is that it is an open idea on the community with 3 votes. It does have a backlog item that needs to be research for UI/UX. You claim this is very simple and it might very well be, but there are still decisions to be made. If the text word wraps, does automatically mean the cards have to become responsive? Thus potentially all the cards in a cardlist have a different height? Or should the text still be clipped, but then horizontally when a max-height has been reached?

Business Intelligence - Repeating data on each row in cubes.

Hmmm. No the grouped row items will not repeat. It might be possible, but what I get from the discussion is that the issue is that it isn't repeated when exporting to Excel. I would suggest that we try to solve the actual problem and not change the behavioure of this component. Am I right in stating that the issue is not that it is visually represented this way, but that it isn't repeated when exporting to Excel?

Universal GUI Headers + filter button

Robbert,The prefilters (or the whole filter/search section) of the action bar currently are allowed to take up 50% of the space, the other 50% being reserved for the crud/task/report bar. And it favours the crud actions, so when you go smaller and smaller it will alway try to keep those out of the overflow menu. You are absolutely right that there is more space available and we are aware of the fact that the top actionbar as a whole could be more intelligent about deviding this extra space, but at the moment it isnt’. There is feature on the backlog for this, but it has not risen the ranks of priority yet.The text beging cut at the right side of right aligned elements is a bug and you should raise a ticket for that.About the header height. At least I think you mean you would like to make the header contain multiple rows. Enters in the header text will be ignore, the browser platform ignores newlines. I will make a story for this. For tracking purpose please make a wish in TCP.
