Wishlist (Based on v5.41)

Post by dan1dyoung » 2015-05-23 09:27

Hi,

Some more wishes after a little look around:

1) Easier to edit DB, table and field names (Better double-click or use right-click)
2) Ability to customise the child listing table view, so make fields links, show/hide columns, e.t.c.
3) Field level permissions.
4) Map multiple records on a Google Map View, so “Views” which can have custom fields shown/hidden and use a custom template
5) Geolocation
6) Disable Previous & Next buttons if not required
7) Dont show view record icon if there isn’t one selected
8) Control showing the view record icon or not
9) Control showing the add record icon or not
10) Control add/view icons by user/user group
11) Control the “No matches found” per table/view
12) Disable “Show All” on tables unless filtered
13) Google Calendar Integration
14) Zapier Integration


Thanks

Dan

Thanks Dan for the insightful suggestions. We'll try to implement some or all of them in future release.

Hi,

Is there a roadmap of functions to come and will a new enterprise version with more functionality (and higher cost) be an option, I would love to have some functions that most if not all dont have as below but have also been looking at ScriptCase which has an offer on until the end of the month and they have some more functionality but also not such an easy workflow so wondering what is to come with Appgini:

Create applications with offline support so records can be created offline and synced later.
Have pages and areas to put different table and detail views on the same page
Control over the menu (Still using bootstrap) for menus, sub-menus, icons, hover/click, e.t.c.

Thanks

Dan

Hi Dan,

We're currently preparing a voting system for users to add suggestions and vote for them. We'll use this to determine which features get added to upcoming releases. I'll announce the URL of the page once the system is ready.

It would great if AppGini includes patches after generating codes.

this case we can modify with our own customized code automatically.

I have to do the following manually after implementing my codes:

- run diff command between generated code and my code to create a patch file
- run patch command each time when I modify .axp project and generates codes.

Automated patching might be tricky and could corrupt code ... For example, if you make some changes in your project that would affect the code being patched, you might need to review that manually first before patching. The same would happen if a new version is out and the code being patched is changed in it.

An open bugs database so that users can see if what they're experiencing is an already reported (and verified) bug.
If this is integrated with the wishlist they could then also vote on which bugs are most urgent.

I too make a LOT of changes to core generated Appgini files and have to run a compare on the entire generated application to check what's changed from version to version.

So what would great to have when an update is released is a list of the actual generated files that have changed from the previous version. That would save time and help me at least. :D

Adding records from homepage is super.
It would be even better if one could switch that option on/off for particular tables.

Reason: For some novice users it can lead to creating duplicate records.
Eg. creating new record for same customer if another person had created a customer record already.
We train users to always check if a record already exists so they update instead of creating a new one so this is mainly a usage/training issue and they can do the same mistake even after going to the searchable list view page. However, now the reflex might be to create a new record anyway without bothering to look up first.

Yes, we plan to set it as a configurable option in the next release. Thanks for the feedback!

You can know all the detailed changes by versioning your generated application using Git and using the diff tool. Check this screencast: http://bigprof.com/appgini/screencasts/ ... de-changes

Suggestion: A column in Admin area/view members to indicate if a member has special permissions that override their group permissions. Currently this is visible when individual member is chosen and I do a run through after every major change but sometimes as admin one forgets temporary permissions given to individuals.

Hi Dan,

I was researching one voting system but found it hasn't been updated for a while and doesn't have all the feartures we're lookgin for ... We'll consider either using uservoice.com or our own (possible AppGini-based) solution. We'll announce it once it's ready.
