Get element of domain instead of db value

Hi, we are building a report where we have to get the value of a domain from a table. Here we get the DB value of the domain, instead of the element value. Is there a way where we can get the element value in varchar?

Problems creating an SF read-only role

I’m trying to create a full copy of the ‘software_development’ role for the SF into a new read-only role.Why? Because are support team and business analists want to explore the models built in the SF and may be able to find possible reasons something isn’t working.But we want to have a safety built in that prevents accidental insert/updates/deletes. I want the new role to only have read rights to all SF screens:Tables to read-only Editable column read-only No tasksThe script that I’ve created copies all role rights and changes it to our specific needs. All menu items seem to work fine, however I cant choose or switch a branch.I’ve figured out that a start object opens the ‘check_sf_upgrade_msg’ task and has a process flow that opens the ‘set_branch’ task. I already tried to assign rights to these tasks and the corresponding process flows but now I get an error after opening the SF: Am I missing something?Are there any plans to create a read-only role on the SF in future releases?Our pl

multiple edit modi in one screen

I have the following 2 tables in one screen: ‘Staffels’ is a child of ‘staffel afspraken’. Depending on the input in the main table, a variant of the child table is used: for several configurations in the main table I need to fill oput different columns in the child table. We do this by using different variants of the child table to display different columns. In this case it is unwanted to have both tables in edit mode: how can I prevent this from happening?

The scheduler gives me the wrong date

Hello everyone,In our application we have a scheduler, this scheduler gives the wrong start date when I start it up. It interprets the date 9-10-2024 as the 10th of September, and not as the 9th of October. This is confusing and because of this, I thought the scheduler was not functional: Today it should be fine, as it cannot interpret 10-10-2024 as something else (I do have to delete the other test data for that).But this is inconvenient. It seems to interpret 09-10-2024 in the American way (month/day/year instead of day/month/year). What could be the cause of this, and has anyone else run into this problem?

Drag and drop on the same table cannot pass the id of an item (dragging from variant to table)

Hello everyone,We have a table called work order, this work order table has a variant for the unplanned work orders. These unplanned work orders need to be planned. For this we wanted a scheduler and drag and drop functionality.As a test I first made the task that plans an unplanned work order. The screen build up is as follows: on the right hand side I have a scheduler with the original table as it automatically filters on planned work orders. On the left hand side I have a table variant for the unplanned work orders.When I use a conventional task with two fields for start and end date, it nicely plans the work order I ask it to be planned. The work order disappears from the unplanned list, and appears on the scheduler. This works fine, but I want it to work with drag and drop (and the task is necessary).When I drag and drop an item on the scheduler, it opens the task (as dropping on specific dates is not possible). I fill in the task fields and hit execute. When I hit execute, it wil

USer preference - grouping grid

I have a grid with the possibility to add grouping by dragging and dropping. In the IAM I configured the user preference to: COMPLETE If I add the header email to the grouping, it groups correctly. But as soon as i go to the details and go back the grouping disapears, whcih leads to a bad user experience. I'd expect this to be saved ias a user prefrence. Is this a bug? Or a request for improvement?

The Tab key should have the same behaviour as arrow up and down in a table.

In a table when editing multiple rows/columns, it would be very helpful if the behaviour of the Tab key is the same as the arrow up/down. The arrow up/down selects the value in de field that has the focus. The Tab key doesn't select the value of the field that get's the focus.

Embedding Thinkwise in another application

Hi,We have another application (say application X) where development is done to integrate our Thinkwise application in another web application. I was wondering if this is possible and if so, how to approach this. We currently have the following problem:User clicks a specific button in application X, which triggers a popup in application X showing the Thinkwise application in Application X: User logs into Thinkwise (Open ID), but still via application X. User cannot see anything of the Thinkwise application: What can we do in order to solve this problem? Thanks in advance!

Customizing the Universal GUI using CSSBlog

We often get questions about customizing the Universal GUI, particularly the login page. We plan to offer several model-options to customize it in the future, such as the logo, colors, title text and background image, and to display maintenance messages, for example. But with the latest release of the Universal GUI, it is already possible to make these adjustments manually, using custom CSS! SetupStarting with the latest (beta) release of the Universal GUI it is possible to inject your own custom CSS to change the styling of various parts of the user interface.To get started, simply rename the custom.sample.css file in the public folder of the Universal GUI to custom.css. This file will then automatically be loaded by the Universal GUI. By renaming the file, it will no longer be overwritten with Universal GUI updates.Next, add your own CSS to the custom.css file and you’re off! CSS classesThe Universal GUI provides static CSS classes for a selection of elements, mainly on the login pag

Algorithm behind svg colors

I understand that thinkwise changes the colors of SVG icons but I just end up puzzling what I should do to get it right.I have an SVG graphic, which I post below.If I state that the fill color is “none”, it becomes white with an alpha of 0.7. If I state that the stroke color = “none”, I don’t get strokes, and if I specify a color I get that color.What I want is no fill; I can reach that with overriding the fill color setting; fill-opacity="0".Next I want a stroke in the font color … I understood from your previous posts that you are doing this but it doesn’t happen.This is my svg ( a circle with a question mark in the center ); <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="64" height="64" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" fill-opacity="0" stroke="none" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="10"></circle><path d="M9.09 9a3 3 0 1 1 5.91 1c0 2-3 3-3 3"></path><line x1="12" y1="17" x2="12.01" y2="17">&lt

How to trigger a refresh

Hi, we have several points in our application where we want to trigger a refresh, which likely have to be done in different ways.We have a table where an insert causes an update in another table. Both these tables are shown in the same screen type. How can we trigger a refresh of the parent table when doing an insert in the child table? I know that in React this is done with state, which triggers a reload of the gui, then showing the changed data again. Can we do something similar?We also have a document upload functionality that is custom built. We use the indicium universal api for this. Here we have to trigger a refresh programmatically I think?

Take a picture with Universal GUI

What are the options to directly access the camera in the Universal GUI on Windows to take photos? For example, we have Micorosft Surfaces where we want to directly add a photo to a table (e.g., using the multiple upload HTML page that I have working now), but also with a normal form, but with the Image Upload control, I can only choose files instead of taking a photo. On iOS, I do get that option.

Display SVG Icons in Treeview

We ran into the problem that SVGs were not displayed in tree views. (Universal GUI 2024.2.14)After adding this to custom.css, the svg icons became visible:svg { width: 24px; height: 24px; }Side effect of this, is that charts are no longer displayed. I don’t believe this is solved as was mentioned in this post:What can we do now?

Indicium both as IIS- and service process?

We are deploying a TW application in the Windows GUI at several of our customers.Indicium is handling some background tasks, amongst other printing.These tasks involve frequent polling of the SQL database.Default, we deploy Indicium as a service for the background tasks because this is more simple and has less impact than a IIS installation with Indicium.However, some of our customers also want to use the TW API for accessing the application database. So at these customers, we need to install and configure IIS for Indicium.Should and can we, in those cases, then uninstall Indicium as a service, to avoid double handling of the background tasks? Or does the IIS Indicium process recognize that some roles (background tasks) beside API are handled by a second Indicium instance (the service instance)?At least, I want to prevent double polling of the SQL database.

Prevent lock escalations with merge statementsBlog

As we all know, merge statements are ideal for executing multiple actions in a single statement—an insert, update, and delete with one statement and one source query.This blog is intended to help you make a well-informed decision about when to use a merge statement and when it’s better to avoid it. There is no right or wrong choice, but be aware of the consequences of using a merge statement and the consequences of using separate statements.When using a merge statement, you must take into account that the source and target tables can be locked. These locks are larger than with separate statements due to lock escalation, which increases the likelihood of deadlocks. You can (partially) prevent this by using a CTE (Common Table Expression) to make the target table smaller, thereby reducing the size of the locks, and by placing the source table in a temporary table so that it doesn't cause a lock during the merge.For example:-- Collect data to mergeselect j.product_id , j.product_namein

Await result of Reports variants

I have a question regarding Await result of Report variants. I have made a Report that can be exported as a pdf in the main screen and a variant that can be send by email using a processflow. In the default settings of the Report Await result is set on No and in the variant its Yes.Report variantWhen I execute the variant in the application it becomes an ongoing task, as if Await result is set on No instead of Yes.Is it the idea that the default setting overrules the variant if the selected option is higher in priority, like with column type? Or is this a bug?Same behavior in priority?

Possible to download a file instead of opening in browser

We are currently using the ‘download file’ process action for users to be able to download documents from the system (with the Universal GUI). When the file has a .PDF or .PNG extension, the file is not downloaded but instead it is opened in the browser. Is there a way to force all file types to be downloaded? Zipping the files is not preferred.
