User Experience Design

Hello, I have a column layout at the bottom of the page. In one column I display folders which I get from an integration of a sharepoint folder. The next column are the files located inside the selected folder. The final column gets the selected document and displays the preview. All good until I added a button which is supposed to hide the first two columns and sets the document preview height to "TALL". The functionality is meant to enlarge the preview and it does, however every time I click on this button the screen jumps to the top of the page. When preview is enlarged I also have the "back" button which reverses this action and again the screen jumps to the top. What is going on here?One more thing: Even if I scroll up after clicking (which is easily done since Appian+Sharepoint is so slow) so none of the columns are on my screen it still jumps to the top.

Hi Team,  I have a scenario, where I need to add multiple assignees. To do this, I have created a user picker field and initially saving the inputs to a local variable. I want to save this data to a assignees record. where assignees record is in one to many relationship with meeting data record. This mean, the relationship record is multiple in my case and I was not able to save the list of assignees to the record. Can anyone help me? Attaching the code for reference. 

Hi Experts, Is there any way to generate and download an Excel file in a single click. Thanks, Gaurav Singh

I am always indebted. We would like to consult with you all.Currently, the line graph in the interface represents the change in amount.Is there a way to express the amount (numeric value) on the Y-axis in 3-digit increments?I would like to express it like "10000" → "10,000" on the Y axis as well. You can see detailed amounts in 3-digit increments by hovering over the graph, this is Appian's default feature.The Y-axis value is linked to the displayed data. Even if I passed the display data separated by 3 digits, there was no change on the Y axis. Is it not possible? If anyone knows, I would appreciate your advice.Thank you. いつもお世話になっています。皆様にご相談があります。現在、インターフェースの折れ線グラフで、金額の推移を表現しています。Y軸の金額（数値）を3桁区切りで表現する方法はありますでしょうか？Y軸にも「10000」→「10,000」のように表現したいです。 グラフをマウスオーバーすると3桁区切りで詳細金額を見ることができます、これはAppianのデフォルト機能です。Y軸の値は表示データに連動しています。表示データを3桁区切りにした状態で渡してもY軸に変化はありませんでした。実現不可能なのでしょうか？ もしご存じの方が居られましたら、ご助言いただきたく存じます。よろしくお願いいたします。

I am attempting to debug an error that's popping up in a record list action that involves copying an externalized string representing a record, then writing the record to the database, either for a new record or an update to an existing one. The error below appears as soon as I copy the externalized string into the paragraph field, but only when I run the list action from my site. When I attempted to debug the issue in the interface editor, the saveIntos on the paragraph field run as intended. Normally when I run into an issue like this I assume that the variables being passed into the process start form are different than the test values in the interface editor, but this process model only occurs as a record list action, so there is no context being passed into the process, and no process variables have a default value. I can't figure out where in the application there would be any changes to the process variables that would cause this difference. For reference I've also i

Hello All, My requirement is that in a chat we need to show the conversation. This conversations is shown in a card layout with height as MEDIUM.

I have a form that is used to upload documents.  The form works as intended except when removing a document the user just uploads.  Typically, a user can hover over the document icon and it will turn into a "X".  The user can click on that and remove the document so that another document can be uploaded in its place.  When the user does this, the following error is thrown. Expression evaluation error at function a!fileUploadField: An error occurred while executing a save: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Invalid index (1) for list: valid range is empty.
