I would like to suggest an enhancement to the user interface of Item List (tabular) form fields within the WEBCON BPS platform.
[Current Limitation]
At the moment, users are unable to freeze specific columns in Item Lists when scrolling horizontally. This often leads to usability issues, especially in wide tables, where the first few columns (e.g., item name or ID) get lost from view.
[Proposed Improvement]
Introduce a checkbox option per column in the form field configuration that allows selected columns to be frozen (fixed) horizontally when scrolling the table to the right.
[Benefits of This Feature]
- Freezing key columns (like item names or identifiers) ensures users can always see the context of the data they’re viewing or editing, even in wide tables.
- Mimics the behavior users are familiar with from tools like Excel, where freezing panes is a standard feature in working with large data sets.
- Keeping reference columns visible reduces the chance of entering or modifying data in the wrong row or column.
- Particularly beneficial for users working on smaller screens or with complex business processes that involve many columns in item lists.
