User Experience Design

Has anyone figured out a good way to emulate nested/merged column headers in an editable grid?  I have attached an image to show what I mean.As far as I know, there is no OOTB way to do this, but it must be a relatively common requirement.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I'm looking for a few clarification how I should understand performance view on UI (Appian version 21.4) 1. Are all locals executed in sequence? In other words first marked section layout is constructed then second section layout is constructed? Both sections layout call store procedure and then display returned day 2. Total time is 33 seconds but when i sum up time for 2 selected section layout i get 43 seconds. How i should link total time with section layouts times 3. Similar to time - sum of percentages goes over 100%  Above all - is it possible to call 2 stored procedure with different parameters in parallel?

Hi Team, I have a requirement to call a process model inside the button saveInto using a!startprocess function. But when i am using the function the variables declared inside the button saveInto are not updating.  Any Idea on how to fix this issue. Thanks in Advance

Hello, I am currently having some issues with validation groups on a button I have in a child interface. I will be referencing the picture below. The Save button on the bottom right has validate set to true, and is in the validation group "save_1". The fields "Expected Effort & Expertise Level" and "Total Payment Amount" are set to required, and are also in validation group "save_1". The whole section Organization Details is in a child interface, and the Section Add Participant Search Criteria is part of the parent. When I click the Save button, the fields from Participant Search Criteria are also validated despite not being in the validation group. I understand this can be avoided by placing them in a separate validation group, but that forcibly removes the asterisk (*) from the field which is unwanted. Am I possibly missing something about the validation group, or am I out of luck? Thanks.

Hello Everyone,                        Is there any way that we can have a text on the image.

Hello All, I have a question regarding the uploadfile component. When a file is uploaded using this component, the default behavior is the screen shits its focus to the top. Our requirement is to have the focus at the same section of uploadfile component i.e Upload as per the screenshot. Whenever we upload any file in Appian, the file is scaned for virus and then upload to the Appian KM space. The other requirement is to capture the metric/performance when a file of size ranging from 100MB to 1GB is uploaded. Thanks & Regards Girish Katti
