Thinkwise Platform

Our Windows application has many carefully designed screens to optimize usability and screen estate usage. Our users are now very much used to the way the application looks and behaves. Because web apps seem to be the future I have tried the Universal GUI several times these past few years. Of course most development went into functionality which is understandable. But when will the interface itself get more options? It doesn’t have to look exactly the same as the Windows application but it would be nice if all our designed screens could at least be ported to some kind of Windows theme.It’s great to have a web app that’s able to adapt to smaller screens but for office use Universal still appears rather basic. Perhaps style sheet examples could be provided to tweak the Universal look and behavior towards a Windows look?

I'm trying to show an image from a URL. This works perfectly in the Windows GUI, however in Universal this does not work (see picture below).Resizing the preview component in Universal does not seem to work.If someone knows how to fix this, I'd like to know. Thanks! 😄 Working image URL preview component in Windows GUI.No picture shows up in the Universal GUI.

I am trying to pass a variable to a DevExpress report using the reports process.All seems fine in DevExpress itself, but in the GUI (universal) i always get -1 instead of the expected 100001 or default 100000. My question basically is, what am i missing here? (GUI version2022.1.16 b1.0GUI released on27-05-2022Platform version2022.1) pic 1+2 shows the devexpress setuppic 3+4 shows the SF setuppic 5+6+7 shows the steps i take in the GUI 

For a client we’re working on connecting them to their corporate SSO solution. Fortunatly the documentation the client provided us indicated that they support OpenID as method.In prepraring the request to enable connection to their SSO solution the client’s IT team asked us to provide the redirect url that would be used. As this is the first time using Thinkwise to connect to OpenID I’m unaware of what this URL will be and I can’t find it in the relevant documentation.Can someone provide me with this url?Let’s asume that the environment will behttps://sampleurl.nl/Indicium (for the indicium interface) https://sampleurl.nl/Universal (for the universal interface)

Hi,I’m searching about enabling SSO with O365 Microssoft on the Web GUI in Azure.I have already enabled the same on our Universal Projects and works like a charm.Is the SSO with an external authenticator supported ? From the answer in comments on this question It implies that it is supported:    What settings do I need to place and in which location for enabling the SSO with an external authenticator ? All anwers are welcome :) 

In the new GUI (2022.1.17) some settings have been changed. For example the color of the scheduler.Is it possible to change this color? I tried the resource color and the extender property ‘Header color’ without result.    

A lot of times the answer to resolve improved GUI experience is to use generated HTML in the Universal GUI in combination with the card-list as this one auto-sizes. However treating VARBINARY columns are troublesome especially with regards to performance. Are there any best practices or tips out there to treat for example uploaded icons for categories?   

When I connect to an external database with the database connector I get the following error: ERROR [HY000] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Windows logins are not supported in this version of SQL Server.ERROR [01S00] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Het kenmerk voor de verbindingsreeks is ongeldigERROR [HY000] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Windows logins are not supported in this version of SQL Server.ERROR [01S00] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Het kenmerk voor de verbindingsreeks is ongeldigI use the following Connection string:Driver={SQL Server}; Server=xxxxx.database.windows.net,1433; Database=xxxxx; User Id=xxxxx; Password=xxxxx;I tried different variations based, for example to add the following to the connection string: Trusted_Connection=False;Encrypt=True;I couldn’t get it working, is there maybe someone with a solution?

We are looking for a way to ensure that certain functionality is always executed after a user has closed a certain screen (an opened document) in a flow in the Universal GUI. We have created a task that closes the screen and executes the functionality. But if the user closes the screen (document) itself, this functionality is not performed.It is essential that this functionality is always executed (this sets triggers for synchronization with another application).Is there a way to somehow enforce this? Or can we prevent the user from closing the screen without using the task?These items do talk about on-close events in various forms, but there doesn't seem to be a solutionClose document starting point process flow | Thinkwise Community (thinkwisesoftware.com)Process flow after close document | Thinkwise Community (thinkwisesoftware.com)

I'm having a screen with a date on it. The date in SQL is formatted yyyy-MM-dd. However when I need to search in the screen, I need to format it that way.Is there a way to make sure the user can put in dd-MM-yyyy and the search will be good?On date:On database date I tried a calculated field, however that search cannot make use of my index on date, so that won't perform good.

I'm curious or there are customers who using Thinkwise for company-wide planning. We would consider the options for a planning module in Thinkwise. But because we are still a bit skeptical we would like to hear who has already developed something similar. Important requirements are at least to plan projects and resources and show and edit them in a Gantt Chart diagram. Of course there will be a set of basic requirements like the possiblity to create some dependencies between taks, assign tasks to people and monitoring the progress of a task.  Example Gantt Chart to develop in the SF At the moment we're using Timewax as our project & resource planning software. With the open Timewax API we can create seamless integrations with our own Thinkwise system. We can retrieve, create, edit and delete both master and transaction data in Timewax.   Gantt Chart planning  Planning board 

In the combined filter we have enabled searching on city. We have records in the database with special ASCII characters in the name of the city like Årslev or Brønderslev in Denmark.When typing ‘Arslev’ or ‘Bronderslev’ in the combined search, then these records are not found.Is there an option that these records are also shown when typing the ‘regular’ ?  

Hi,Question for Universal GUI.Is there an option to allow the menu to be automatically expanded to show all active groups or specific groups?Eg. I want only Main group to be expanded but not the other groups in the menu.  

Hello, if i look at our docs page, the following is stated: "The ID of the document that has to be closed. If this process action is not a start action, then the value of this parameter will be used to determine which document must be closed. "https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/process_flows.html#close-documentFrom this you can deduce that a close document step can be modelled as a start action of a process flow. But I cannot get this to work. Is this possible or not?

Hi all,In the image below you can see that I have a section Vessel Schedule Detail (right) which is a detail component of the section Vessel Schedule (left). But in the whole context we can also see that Vessel Schedule Detail is a level lower compared to Vessel Schedule. How can I move the Vessel Schedule Detail to the same level as Vessel Schedule. I think this will also move the tasks of Vessel Schedule to the left, which are on the right now (red).Thanks. 

I have a table with a variant. How can I activate a detail in that variant using the process flow?

Hi,Interested to know if Scorm format is supported or if there is a plan to support it in the near future?Exploring the idea for content sharing and providing training material on our existing Mobile App on Universal GUI.

Hi, is this possible, and if so, how can I achieve this. I have a table, with a task. This task must open a popup with a grid view of another table, here I select a row, click ‘ok’, show all records underlying in this selected Row, do some selections (maybe all, maybe some), click ‘go’, do some Code on the selected Rows. Main thing is the popup with all the grid rows.  

When using a combobox (a lookup of another table) we run into some strange things when using the Universal GUI.We have linked a field to a table via a look up.When opening the relevant task screen, the value is shown correctly.When we open the look up the value is not selected in the list of (look up-)values. If we select a value, put the focus on another field and then open the relevant lookup again, the value is selected.In addition, the selected value is not displayed when the lookup is opened. Depending on the position in the list, the user has to scroll before the value appears.Both points work normally (as expected in the Windows GUI).Are these bugs in the Universal GUI, is this not supported yet in Universal GUI or do we have to set up something extra to use the Universal GUI for the use of combo boxes?

Not always, but frequent I get the following error, it started when I activated edit by default on a form. Sometimes after clear cache it works.. sometimes it gives me the error again.   

We have several VIEWs with a trigger attached.Everytime we add a column to the view or make a small change to the internal query we need to manually remember to also regenerate the triggers for that VIEW.Is there a way to automate that? An error like the ones the user get when a DEFAULT or LAYOUT isn't regenerated would also help a lot. Currently the trigger is just missing causing seemingly mysterious things to happen (the mystery is mostly why they do not happen).

EDIT: It seems to be related with Firefox. In Chrome all looks correct. Hi,I'm currently doing some testing of our TW applications in the universal interface and I noticed the following: Why are the “Aantal” and “Ontvangen en geindentificeerd” not on the same baseline?Is this a feature or am I doing something wrong? Maybe it is the fault of Firefox? 

Hi, Are there any guidelines when implementing a multi tenant architecture using Thinkwise. Which means we have 1 database instance for multiple tenants (organizations) sharing the same tables. Each table will have a tenant_id to distinct the owner of the record.I want to figure out which possibilities there are to store tenant specific information in a table:Creating for instance 10 extra fields that can be used by the tenants is probably not really a good option in Thinkwise as I've not found a way to have context/tenant specific translations. Creating tenant specific fields in the base tables is probably also not the best option if we have for instance 5 tenants that want to use 10 additional fields. which means we have to create 50 extra fields in he base tablesHope to get some good ideas from theThinkwise community. Thanks!

hi,During the Creation steps in Deployment, I’ve had some problems because I used preserved SQL names (check, revoke) in the data model. How come the SF does not validate this during Creation? Or am I missing something?The list of preserved words is getting bigger and bigger..
