I almost posted this as a question, but then I saw that in the Skuid Platform release notes it mentions:Can I use “static resources?”… there is not currently a static resource feature for uploading of generic assets. (Also coming soon.)Thrilled that this has already been addressed and will be available in a later release!+1! Really enjoying digging around with Skuid Native so far.

Skuid Community, Many of you use change sets and I am sure you find the experience slow and frustrating. One of the things I like to do is to use Skuid to improve upon the experience for those of us building and deploying solutions. To that ‘end’, I have attached a page xml that you can install in your org. This page displays all changes made to your org. in descending order (i.e. most recent changes at the top) and allows you to filter/search through the changes. This should make it a lot easier to find what has changed and make it easier to build your change set. Thanks to Skuid for making a product that helps the admins and developers!

It would be nice to optionally show users how many characters they have remaining on a text field or area. We don’t always want them to get the ugly message that they have input too many characters when they click save, we want them to see the number of characters remaining as they are typing so they can plan their text accordingly. Like this: Too many comments:

Now that the composer is for both desktop and mobile, it would be beneficial to have the ability to use the knowledge of knowing what OS is pulling down the page. ie. if mobile, then use set max records to 10 vs 100. That kind of thing.

Would be great to have context conditions on the File Upload button. My use case is that I want to put the File Upload button in a drawer, and have it work if more than one drawer is opened and the user goes back to an earlier drawer. 

It would be nice to be able to set a component to render based on whether another component is rendered. A picklist of the unique ids of compomenents on the page by component type would be nice here.

My favorite thing about Skuid releases is when you see a feature that nobody is talking about and you know it’s gonna make your life so much easier and your app so much more powerful.

I recently got amazon EC2. I wonder what wonders it and skuid can work!Looking forward to playing with skuid Platform!

Ever wanted your calendar to do this: Highlight an event / appointment Highlight the current day in week view in a different background color. highlight the current hour (approximately to within every 15 minutes) Finally got it to do this with the following code: /\*\* \* Modifies the calendar drawEvents method to call the Highlight MethodS \* after drawing events \*/ var defaultDrawEvent = skuid.calendar.Calendar.prototype.drawEvents; skuid.calendar.Calendar.prototype.drawEvents = function() { defaultDrawEvent.apply(this); skuid.snippet.getSnippet('HighlightCurrentAppointment')(); skuid.snippet.getSnippet('SetCurrentWeekUI')(); skuid.snippet.getSnippet('SetCurrentTimeUI')(); }; the three snippets that are called highlight

I have an idea that I think warrants a new component. It is more or less a redesign of the tab set or wizard component but would feel much different. Picture an iPhone home sceen. You have app buttons. You press an app button and the home screen disappears and the app opens in full screen. If you then hit the home button, the app disappears and the home screen reappears. Now here is the core of my idea. The app that you exited is still in memory like tabs in a tabset when you are on a different tab. So you could filter a table in an app, go to another app, do some things, then come back to the original app and it is still filtered as you left off. You can even start creating a new record, navigate away, then come back and finish the record creation. This is how the tab set component works, but it is in tabset layout. It could be modified so that the first tab is the “home screen” and pressing a button on the tab would open up a different tab. Each secondary tab would have a home but

When picking an option to render something it would be convenient to have an option “snippet returns false” in addition to the option of “snippet returns true.” My use case: I have two buttons. One says “show preferred records only”, which queries a model to show user specific preferred records, and another that says “show all records” which queries a model and ignores the model condition for user preferred records. I only want to show one button at a time. When the preferred records are displayed, I show “show all records” and when all records are displayed, I show the button “show preferred records only.” In order to do that, I had to write two snippets, which do the same exact thing, except one returns the complement value of the other. If I had an option of “snippet returns false” I’d be able to get away with one snip

It would be nice if, when designating style attributes, if on the attribute you could also designate a condition that activates the attribute. For example attribute color: white only if a checkbox from a model on the page is true and a separate attribute color: red only if the checkbox is false. Similar set up to conditional enabling of fields in a field editor.

Hi we have a notes field that user intermittently saves. The use case is such that we can only save the model when they are done with the page. So we can save the notes to another field from another model behind the scenes and auto populates the notes field. However, this is only specific to one logged in user. If another user is in the same page, their notes might overwrite other user’s work. Another approach comes to mind is using browser session or server Apex session. Has anyone implemented session restore of field values in Skuid?

Seems like a no brainer in having this as a component. Surprised I couldn’t find anyone mention it.

Surprised I couldn’t find this as an idea.Please enable all-day events in the calendar component using a date field.

We use custom CSS for most of our app. When we use “Enable Conditions” the style of the nx-basicfieldeditor-item-label is changed by a Style Attribute {color: rgb(0,0,0); for the label when available and Style Attribute {color: rgba(0,0,0,0.298039): for the greyed out label. The greyed out is fine but we want the color of the label when available to be that of our custom color and not black as being set by this attribute. Not sure how to change that in custom CSS.

It would be nice to have an option to show a summary of Boolean fields at the bottom of a table, showing how many are true and/or false.

I often will have a field that is conditionally rendered due to another field being edited while the component is in inline edit mode.Think Opp Stage field being set to “Closed Lost” and another field called Reason for Lost Opp being conditionally rendered in edit mode.

Introducing a delay feature for actions and rendering would open up a variety of new opportunities, particularly for visual effects. Different types of appear and disappear effects would be cool for visuals like images (example: From bottom, from right, fade in, etc…)

It would be really neat if the wrapper component had built in hotspot and drag and drop. With the hotspot, you could place a wrapper anywhere on the page and clicking anywhere in it would execute action sequences that you could define. It would be cool to be able to activate drag and drop on a responsive grid and on any wrapper you want. Then you could define a set of wrappers that could be dragged into and out of the slots in a responsive grid. The wrappers would contain whatever components you want so you would be able to drag and drop virtually anything.

Hi is it possible to conditionally show or hide a field based on if the user has at least performed one search in a lookup field? User will only have the option to save a custom label after he performs a search first. The skuid lookup control is locked down. Ideally we want to add a link at the bottom of the search results...I have a custom renderer with a popup solution. Any other simpler ways?

This is discussed here:https://community.skuid.com/t/clear-search-componentBut as this is a question marked as answered, I’d like to reopen as a feature idea.

In support of this post, I feel it should be easier to control via the field editor and/or field properties.A default width setting on the field editor.A width setting override on the field.Both setup as a horizontal slider

Not a super big thing, more of a polish thing. Screenshots of when label is above and left of field. Both have very large fields and the editor should really auto adjust width so as to use as little vertical space as needed.

Based on Kaede Holland's post here. It would be sweet if I could use a template like this:Jump to PRL Tab …and have it actually work to jump to the tab without reloading the page.
