Forms

Hi all! I was trying to see if it's possible to send a form, that would be triggered in webcon by the user, with a list of fields and after the user submits it l, it is integrated in webcon. For example, you are creating your customer list, you send the form for the customer (user without a license), the person puts all the details and when its submitted, the information is automatically integrated in the form. Have you tried this? Thank you all!

Hi community! We are currently facing a new requirement, where it should be possible to change the browser language with a series of buttons in the form (approximately 20 different languages). Every click on a language button should change UI labelling on current form to selected button language. e.g. [German] [English] [French] ... <-- HTML field [Form content goes here] I know this is possible with different browser languages, but is this possible with button action (and maybe some (...)

Hi, Does anyone know how to change the height of the modal dialog of item list element? Scrolling is a bit annoying and I need a bigger dialog.

Hi, I am a new guy here and I just started with webcon designer. I need help with mathematical operation on a form. I want to subtract two dates to get number of days beetwen this two dates.

Hello, I'm working on a form of employee's declaration, which should contain a long text (an information for the employee, mandatory for legal reasons). What is a proper way for placing these types of data on a form? Is there a way other than creating an attribute and assigning default value (assuming that the text will be constant).

Hi, On the form, I am using the Chart data field. I am wondering whether it is possible to use the chart field in the Word printout report. Is there an alternative way to draw a chart based on the form data in the report? Maybe in HTML report. I was also thinking to put chart into the Picture field that is supported in Word templates. Any insight on how to approach this would be appreciated. Best regards Aleš

What is the easiest way to detect whether a form is in edit or display mode? I need this to show/hide fields. Any ideas?

Hi all! We are currently using the Google Maps field with address-based (dynamic) mode for registration of clients, which is in my opinion very user-friendly. The problem is, this mode shows the correct position on the map, but it doesn't store anything in the workflow item. We want to store Longitude and Latitude (e.g. in 2 extra fields of the process/workflow) along with Street, Zip and City (which is already happening). I hope you know, what I mean. Is this even possible without develop (...)

Hello, I hope you can help with this! I need to guarantee that a file in the attachments is checked-in (so the version will be different than 1) before moving the workflow to the next step. In the validation form, I don't have the attachments system so that I can construct a query to verify this. Does anyone have an idea? Thank you!

Wondering if it is possible to open the attachment preview dialog by using javascript only. Does anyone already tried to do this? There is the possibility to open the latest attachment, but that's not the solution i'm looking for.

By having a copy of a external file as attachment instead of only having a link to it, we can take advantage of the great preview functionality. How ever, having copies of a file increase the risk of having multiple versions and loosing track of the relevant document. In my case, we have customers who wants to link to files in SharePoint and other dms. So I'm wondering, how you guys solve this challenge. I'm currently thinking about a simple itemlist having a hyperlink column to store the lin (...)

I haven't found any documentation how to access the current form data. What I know is, that all the formdata is kept in a json property called liteDate.liteModel as a json-object as you can see when calling /api/nav/db/{dbId}/app/{appId}/element/{wfdid}/desktop I guess that this liteModel must be available via javascript. I'm wondering, because there is this form from the offical 2021 release paper (see below) with the nicely presented workflow steps on top of it. And I believe that this a (...)

Hello, Do you know the possibility how to place a gantt chart in a process that was not created as a "Vacation" by template? I have columns: "person", "date from" and "date to"

Between Item lists there is relationship 1:C. How row in the parent Item list can be protected to be updated or deleted if in the child item list there is a row referenced on ID of row in the parent Item list. Is there any sample that can help to overcome this issue. Both Item lists are in the same step.

Hello All, Big project regarding to reservation system is ahead of us. And one of the very useful feature will be gantt chart on the form and as web part as well. So is there any plans to implement Gantt charts in next Webcon BPS versions? Or maybe there is posibility to prepare Gant Chart in HTML attribute? I mean off course Gantt charts in Modern Webcon BPS, because we wouldlike avoid to built new app on classic SharePoint, where gantt charts are available.

Hi, I'm wondering if I missed something or there's another/bezter way to add a required boolean field. My current approach is to define a choice field with true/false options, set a label "select an option" and mark this field as required. I'm using global constants for the IDs so that I can check the value of necessary. I don't use the boolean field itself because an unchecked boolean field would fulfill the required definition too, if I remember correctly, Is there a better way? It j (...)
