External content by Daniel Krüger; April 19, 2025 ; The original post has appeared on daniels-notes.de I’ve redesigned the Gantt chart implementation to make use of the standard filter widget. Even if you are not interested in the Gantt chart itself, my approach to reuse the filter widget may be interesting for you. The new post focuses on the difference fro
(...) It would be great if an option would be added to place the field name above the picture field , like it is available for the 'multiple lines of text' field . The attached picture shows an ugly mockup of the result. Most pictures I have seen are rectangular instead of square, so the default value would be above. Implemented with 2021.1.3.163 Thanks, Daniel
(...) Can you please add an option to encrypt field s, and user configure who can decrypt ? Why ? Becouse, in some business appliactions, administrators not always should be able to see some confidential information send in BPS forms. Senders should decide.
(...) 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 woul (...)
(...) 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 field s of the process/workflow) along with Street, Zip and City (whic (...)
(...) Hello all, I want to set up an action to Add a new list element in a Sharepoint list where my URL will be different based on a form field . But when I'm selecting the list where I want to add my new elements, we can only choose the ones in that site content. Does anyone have any idea on this? Thank you all!!!
(...) Hi everyone, I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but whenever I create a dictionary, I replace (hide) the default Description single line field with a new multi line field . Therefore I would suggest to either rename the field to "Short description" or change the default field type. I'm not sure where it's used internally so that it's disabled to change it's type. Best regards, Daniel
(...) DEV-Environment to latest 2021.1.2.136. Today i was evaluating the new version with our existing processes, and stumbled upon something that didn't occur to me in the past. I have a crucial picker field in an item list, that has target field s from some of the columns in that same item list. It works in our current PROD version (2020.1.3.411). In 2021 it throws: "Sequence contains no matching el (...)
(...) Hi, I have a category list and sub-category list and I want to create a two picker field s where the second one will be based on the first one. Category(picker dropdown): * A * B Sub-category(picker dropdown): *A1 *A2 *B1 *B2 If I will choose Category A, the second picker field should show only A1 and A2 option. How to achive it?
(...) ed in this thread: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/555/46 having been removed in 2021.1.3.143 (tested, worked fine), something similar is happening in 2021.1.3.163 when you use a picker field in an item list, and map it's data source-columns into other columns of the item list. It then throws: "b.map is not a function"-error, see attached screenshot. If I dont map data source columns to (...)
(...) Hi all, I'm having a problem in Studio with a Form Validation rule using SQL. I have an item list that is populated with lines if the user select a Sales Order in another field or manually filled if there is no information on the SO. There is a column that is mandatory to be filled whenever the item list has any rows and I tried many examples to construct a validation form rule in order to hav (...)
(...) Maybe I missed something but I'm struggling on a form. On the form I have 2 autocomplete choice field s that are related. First I would like to hide the second field . The first field a category has to be selected (1-5), and when someone selects Category 1, the second field should appear dynamically to make a selection. Now I added a rule in "Visibility restriction in form", see picture. I runs but (...)
(...) Often there are scenarios, where the length of a text input field should be limited. This can basically done by means of a regular expression. However, this would still allow the user, to enter more than the allowed characters. It would be great, to have a property in the configuration section to limit the maximum length.
(...) Hello all, Does anyone configured a calculated column in the reports to calculate the difference between current date and a date field from the form? I was trying days (getdate() - form field ) but it's not accepting the days formula. Thank you!
(...) After upgrating to 2021.1.3.205 my autocomplete choice field s in an items list started to behave really strangely and buggy (on several workstations). What happens: - when I scroll to the bottom of the list it scrolls back to the top by itself - when I scroll down a little, the list changes position by itself a little to the top or to the bottom - sometimes an error pops up when scrolled to the bottom (...)
(...) Hello everyone, After updating to 2021.1.3.205, I noticed that setting values from available columns to target field s, stopped working when the field is initialized with a default value. Setting the value only works when I manually change the value in the field . I have not noticed such change in changelog (but maybe it is), so I wonder if maybe it is a bug? Maybe some of you have noticed such a change, (...)

(...) Is it possible to change a choice field to empty when the option picked has no exact match in the option set/ data? If yes, how is that done?
(...) ime is user selectable when creating a new record. Talent Req is created and posting is set to stay up for 30/60/90 days. Is there a way to get the Timeout interval value set to the value of a form field ? (If the user chooses 30 days, that will be the timeout value, 60, etc...)
