As the version bump to 2020.2.10 may already have suggested, our main focus last month was to get everything ready for the upcoming Software Factory 2020.2 release. One of its main new features is that application resources such as images and reports are now stored in the model itself rather than on the file system. This presented an opportunity for us to develop something which has been high on our wish list for a while: file uploads from the grid. Another new feature we’re excited about is that both developer tool windows (the debug console and the location path window) can now be docked somewhere. Other improvements include: Values in the active row are now refreshed after saving without modifications. This resolves a bug in the form list control. As always, saving a row without modifications does not send a PATCH request or UPDATE query to the back-end. The appearance of tile menus in the Software Factory modeler is now more similar to what it will look like in the modeled appl
Considering the breadth of changes introduced in 2020.1.12, it made sense to allow ourselves a cooling down iteration and see where we could improve and refine. That being said, we did add three new features: Tile background scaling Minimal and full versions (Windows GUI) Tools for online documentation (Software Factory) Other improvements include: When a background task is started, the Running tasks panel is now opened automatically. It is not assumed anymore that each SQL Server installation allows people to log in using Windows authentication. This applies in particular when an application is deployed in Azure. When a default stored procedure includes a parameter from a password control, its value is now obscured in the debug console. The Started at column in the debug console now shows the full time stamp of each event, including its date. Scheduler improvements for edge cases. Fixes for the preview control in the Windows GUI. IMPORTANT: As detailed in the Thinkwise Lifecycle poli
Maybe it's the current Dutch stormy weather inspiring the Thinkwise WinWeb Engineering Team, because we sure felt some fresh wind when we picked up a couple recurring tough issues and managed to put them behind us. We hope that the new features and improvements in the latest 2020.1.12 release will inspire you just as much, and increase your productivity. Highlights include: Totals for grid groups (Web GUI) Preview control (Windows GUI) Better FILESTREAM support Indicium connection (Windows GUI) Mail reports with Microsoft Outlook (Windows GUI) Aborted default procedures As usual, some general ease-of-life and quality improvements are included as well: The Ctrl A hotkey in the Web GUI selects all records in a grid. Support for the DATETIME2 data type on SQL Server is now complete. This is particularly useful in the context of temporal tables, where foreign keys on DATETIME2 columns are commonplace. The “Accept” HTTP header is properly supported in the HTTP process connector. SQL express
Today's GUI release with version 2018.3.19 contains a breaking change involving form default edit mode. It affects both Windows and Web GUIs. Previously, if 'Default editable' was checked, the 'Auto-save form' setting was ignored and the form would automatically save changes when it lost focus. In versions 2018.3.19 and higher, this is no longer the case. It instead requires an explicit save or cancel action. To restore the existing behavior, the 'Auto-save form' checkbox must now be checked. See below screenshot where you can find the two checkboxes in the Software Factory: To quickly find all tables and variants which are affected by this change, these queries can be used on your Software Factory: code:select tab_idfrom tabwhere project_id = 'MY_PROJECT' and project_vrs_id = '1.00' and form_default_editable = 1 and form_auto_save = 0select tab_id, tab_variant_idfrom tab_variantwhere project_id = 'MY_PROJECT' and project_vrs_id
For as long as I can remember people have been expressing their wish for this new feature. If they could somehow quickly gauge whether or not they should open a tab page somewhere in their application to see if there’s data in there… wouldn’t that be great? With the increasing adoption of smartphones and mobile apps for businesses this need is becoming more manifest. This is why I’m excited to announce that such a feature is now an integral part of the Software Factory, as of version Pyxis – G9.8. Welcome to Badges! There’s this paradoxical thing about badges to me. They seem like such a small addition, but after I learned to identify them, they suddenly popped up everywhere, like little pixies: New private messages and pull requests on Slack There are two unread emails There’s an update for an installed app on an iPhone Visual Studio 2015 has three Extension and Product Updates If you’re wondering what tab page in your browser loaded an ad which just shattered your eardrum
