Cannot load forms offline on K2 mobile app with Offline Availability property checked

Hello K2 community, I have an issue with my mobile forms: they run well online on the K2 mobile app, but not offline. So, I have created a very simple form based on an advanced SmartObject, with only a layout (no initialization, no controls). Of course, I have checked the Offline Availability property. The form loads well online in K2 mobile app. Offline, the layout is loaded but I get a spinner that never disappears: the form is blocked... I tried to clear the offline cache of the K2 mobile app (Destroy Offline Data), with no success. In the app system log, I get a lot of  "Unknown response" messages. Thanks for your help, Olivier.

Rounded edged (border-radius) on view panels in a smartform

Hi I've recently been tasked with creating a custom theme for a client.One of the things we want to do is have each view panel on the form display with rounded edges rather than the default sharp corners. Something like "border-radius: __px;" in the themes CSS file. I've edited the themes main CSS file and have managed to give button controls a border-radius. But I've used the element inspector in the browser and added the border-radius property to many of the CSS classes that supposedly style the view divs on a form, but nothing works. As many classes as I change I am still met with shard edged views everytime I add changes and refresh the css. If anyone can offer advice or an explaination as to why I can't get this right it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Michael

List View Header colour - still doesn't apply in v5.3 really?

I simply change a List View Header colour from black to blue, save the changes. But when the View/Form loads, header font remains black This used to be a problem in K2 v4.7, hasn't this been fixed by now in v5.3 ? I can see the colour change while editing the List View, but then it doens't apply it when running the form. Come on K2, a simple thing like this shouldn't be happening in your product in 2020...

Package Management

Hi, I'm intrigued to see how others manage their package & deployment process. We have a Global Portal (home page) and from here you can access a variety of Health & Safety apps. Each app has logic to navigate back to the Global Portal via a home icon. We created a package per app, and an additional package for the Global Portal. In each package I removed the inclusion of any dependencies. I wanted each package to only contain the objects relevant to it. When it came to deployment, I have come across something I was not expecting. I only want to deploy one of the apps. I was hoping to deploy the package for that particular app, then the Global Portal package (with the intention that the home page will hide access to other undeployed apps). However, the app that is ready for deployment has a dependency on the Global Portal. Additionally, the Global Portal has a dependency on this app (all apps). I was hoping when it came to deployment that the missing reference warnings could be

How to pass value to Smartobject with required input (UMUser)?

Hello, I have problem with passing value to Smartobject with required input property - in my case, it is UMUser SMO. My view is built on different SMO and I wanted to use UMUser SMO to receive data about user Display Name, however, when I use it's Get User method I always receive below error:"SmartObject property Label_Name is a required property for selected method Get_Users. Value must be set." I can't seem to find a way to pass Label_Name parameter on runtime to this SMO, the only way was to hard code Label Name in SMO properties, but it can't be the actual solution due to the need of having universal solution. Is there any other way to pass value to input parameter for SMO?

Best method for handling resolution of leavers in historical form data?

Hi,  We've had this on our mind for a little while and can't see any clear solutions. Scenario - A form has a lookup field (picker, multi-select, drop-down list) tied to a UMUser call for group members/role members/general name resolution.The form is in production and a user's name is saved against a field.The user is then removed from the group/role or active directory as a whole.The previously saved form is loaded the controls will not resolve the name. I'm concerned that a multi-select or other controls when changed may then save the data back not including the old user. This could be a nightmare for auditing purposes where loading historical forms and executing saves on them inadvertently wipes data with no indication of a problem.  Pickers are less of a problem as it seems if the data doesn't resolve to an item the update still retains the unresolved item (it doesn't display  the resolved value but I think I can use the 'Display Field' to show the stored value).  Has anyone else f
