How to deal with show/hide password control

I would like to add to this to clarify. When you logout of Universal you cannot see the password of the previously logged in account! The only way to make that happen is for the user to allow the browser to save the password. We cannot be responsible for security issues that arise from sharing devices. This problem would also occor if a user logs in to any other personal account and allows the browser to store the password. If you wish to share devices in this way you should give very clear instructions to the users on how to use these devices. Never allow the device to store passwords if it asks to. Logoff everyting before you pass on the device.

Update message in Universal GUI

Thank you for you're comment. First, the fact the version number is wrong has already come to our attention.Second, Completely replacing this message with something more sensible in the context of your application is already possible. In SF under Translations this is the key ‘new_universal_version_available’.Third. Completely skipping this step is technically possible, but it might mean the browser will need to refresh the page again after already been stared. This could seem a bit unruly to the user. If this would not be an issue we can think of adding this as a setting somewhere.

Release notes Universal GUI (2021.2.10)release notes

@René W This morning I've downloaded and installed the new 2021.2.10 version (without the beta flag), but unfortunately that is still not working as expected, behaviour is still the same as in the video. We are looking at why this did not end up being fixed in the release. If we find out we will have hotfix this.Can you explain me why this is by design? I can't explain this towards our end users… If an end user wants to change the selection they first have to cancel it and start all over again. That could be considered annoying.The issue was that the way the UI works now there can never not be a selected record. So this solution was decided upon. We are now looking into this again, because it does clearly have side effects that are not desirable. (Designs can be wrong) However, this will not be a simple change that we could fix shortly.

Release notes Universal GUI (2021.2.10)release notes

@René W About the task not executing for every row, could you please raise an issue for this. Our test case works, so we will need to analyse what is going on in your example. This is not a good place to track that.@René W & @Arie V As for multi select in a card list. The stories to make that happen are already on the backlog but are waiting to be refined. (Bassically estimate out how expensive these are to make). I will move them up. Currently the do not have a target sprint yet.

Release notes Universal GUI (2021.2.16)release notes

@Arie V Hi Arie, good to hear you are enthusiastic about compact mode. As for the row height being a bug. This is unfortunately an intentional choice we had to make. This is related to grid edit mode where we would need to resolve a lot of problems with the editors if they would have to have a smaller height. We decided to opt for implementing the Row height property in the SF. This will be a separate user story.

Universal GUI errors - deleting a record which fails, but I never asked for this

I think it is important to clarify that Universal is NOT trying to delete your record! As Mark said it is deleting the staged resource that has been made for the default edit mode.

Release notes Universal GUI (2021.3.14)release notes

@Arie V We have analysed and fixed this issue. Let me start by saying this, we did not fix anything quick and easy and it turns out that the change you are referring to had nothing to do with this issue. We are a bit puzzled by the fact that you state that this changed in 2021.3.14, because we've found that this issue was already present in previous versions. You could check this agains previous versions. But nonetheless it will be fixed in the next version.

Grid/Cardlist (pre)filter change should always select first RowDeclined

@Arie V We will discuss this, but I'm not shure  this never what you'd want is true. When using Quick filter and Clear filter, I would not like it if I lost the record I was on.

Grid/Cardlist (pre)filter change should always select first RowDeclined

Well for example using quick filter to locate a simulair row. I would like to find other ideas of the same company. Just to reference. You would like to keep this row selected.Or find a simulair row and after finding this row selecting it and clearing the filter. You would like to keep this row selected. You could also do this by using the combined/search filter and deliberatly searching for something that looks like this row.Using quickfilter on a row while there is alread a quickfilter present (adding a filter). Clearing just one of the filters when you have more than 1 quickfilter on the row.Changing the prefilter to something that still includes this row might even throw the user off by feeling this row is not in this prefilter.You state that ‘the GUI could switch from page 1 first row to page xxx without this being very clear to the end user’, when actually adding filters this would not happen since the amount of pages would become more narrow. It could happen when changing prefil

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.

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?

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?

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.

@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.

@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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
