I am getting below error when try to navigate through various Windows(WPF) app controls. Can any once please help to resolve this issue? Getting stuck in recording due to this error and tried many things but nothing seems working. And this error is coming on various control like text, Toolbar etc.

I have a few dropdowns in my interface, however when selecting the dropdown, choices are being constrained by the UI component they are housed in. This is leading to dropdown options being unable to be selected. How can I have the dropdown choices overflow the UI elements?  (Prod) The strangest thing about this issue is that the dropdowns overflow as expected in my prod org, but doesn't work in either my Dev or QA org. My Prod org is 23.4 vs my Dev and QA orgs being 24.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, Over time, Appian users have been deactivated.  When process models created by these deactivated users are modified by a change to a sub process model, then warnings are sent to deactivated users.  Would like to stop this happening by reassigning the process model to a active user. Regards

thank you always.I would like to ask you some questions about Appian's features.Where can I create the "query rule" displayed in the object list? I don't see any options for creating a new object.Is this a legacy thing?I apologize for the basic question, but thank you for your understanding. いつもお世話になっております。Appianの機能についてお聞きしたいことがございます。オブジェクト一覧に表示されている「クエリルール」はどこから作成できますか？ オブジェクトの新規作成の選択肢には見当たりません。これはレガシーなものなのでしょうか？初歩的な質問で恐縮ですが、よろしくお願いいたします。

Actually, I had my passwords correct for the login, but I don't know for what reason I have been thrown up a message that my password/username is invalid. So, I tried to reset my password. When I'm trying to reset my password, I am getting a pop-up that my password reset link is expired even though I have opened the link right after I got the mail. No matter how many times I tried, I am getting the same issue. In the end I'm neither able to logon nor reset my password. Can anyone help me out.? NOTE:- I am new to appian. Don't have much experience with appian.

I'd like to populate a dropdown with all users in our Active Directory but do not need all the users in Appian. I've seen some threads on Azure AD but mostly to do with SSO which isn't the case here. Just would like data to be populated based on that Directory.
