Hi again,

Locale: On top of the columns-> a filter to find the text faster. When developer type a text -> in the list bellow to appear all options containing that text.

Now we have to scroll entire list to find the translation.

cheers,

Jaymer

Default it to Left for Strings, Right for Numeric and I won't have to spend time beautifying my numeric columns by having to drill in and set the Header Styles.
There are more properties, but you could still get to them by clicking the row, edit, header styles.

Maybe a Ctrl-Click on the Alignment pulldown could popup the header Styles dialog directly. Hmmmm !!!

Element Categories that render as folders in the Element Tree are invaluable for organising a large BSV.

Be great if you could change the name of a Category in one place (at the folder in the the Element Tree) . Currently you have to change the Category field of each element in the folder.

In Configuration Tool, "Business Spaces" panel > right click of a BSV , a new menu option to "Delete all Obsolete Versions"

With the ability to set any non current versions as obsolete so that you can then delete them.

In a Query "Operations with records" displays buttons in columns located at the end of each query result row.

You can change the sequence of these buttons but they are always grouped together at the far right end of each query result row. Be nice if you could move individual buttons to different columns 🙂

Drag & Drop Ability of elements on a folder will save a lot of time.

I may be wrong suggesting this (please feel free to inform me why the button is a good thing!)

I often forget to click the small tick button on bottom left of Process Editor and therefore do not save my changes. Can this button disappear and all changes be recorded? I think this is the only panel in the Configuration Tool that has this button.

My understanding is that the button is to check the code is syntactically correct not save it. I rarely press it and all my code saves.

This would be a sweet!!
[IMPLEMENTED] FR - Unused Elements (comment)&hilit=unused#p46032

Kudos on V8.X support, very nice stuff.

PointsWell

Enjoying REST, so thanks for getting that working.

My suggestion requires no development work (in AIM)

There's a lot of documentation available.

But... it's really in a format that is not brilliant.

I'd really like to see the help documentation move away from PDFs and into a more dynamic environment (a wiki or something).

I'd like to see the various functions and tagged with information like: Utilisation (BR/Process/Both) dependencies etc

Preferably with the ability to have discussions (based on versions of the help) which would allow the tagging of examples that people have created, or utilised.

And I’m happy to help in the setup of this.

PointsWell

Filtering of functions and ops that are not capable of being actioned here - here being either a bus rule or a process.

I found out why a previous issue I was having wouldn’t work was because REQUEST SERVICE can only be called from a process.

Alternatively allow everything to be used everywhere.

PointsWell

In the configurator when editing a BO a window to show the BO rules that are associated with the currently selected attribute.

Would make it quicker to delete / modify attributes if you could see the rules (which means this probably sits below the attribute list window in order to be wide enough.

Jaymer

It would be nice to insert comments in process rules, to help document the code.
There is a description available in the sub-element properties window, but its narrow, and you have to click a button to be able to edit it.
I'd propose this simple change to this screen:

This way, we can type in that box right there to document our code:

Should be able to enter a comment line anywhere...

FIND Blah Blah Blah
// This is a Comment
Blah.Attribute='Excellent'

Oh I agree, but I was posting that in light of this being the “what’s easiest to do” motif for this thread.
I guess it comes down to is it easier for him to change his parser, or easier to just move 1 field that’s already over there in the properties pallete.
Because on the one hand, he could say “there’s already a place for you to document the code, it’s in the description field.”
