User Experience Design

Hello community, Can you help me with configuring start process link so that it refreshes the original interface instead of "ending" in the news tab of tempo? Once the link is clicked the process that is configured with chaining runs and shows the task, the task just shows information, the task is assigned to initiator.If the task is submitted, the process does end, but I cant see the original interface refresh when I test it. If I run the test again, the interface shows the information that was previously shown on screen in the task and saved to DB. Behavior is fine except the reload original interface part. Kind Regards, Erik

Hi, My question is , in interface design to edit a expression level, to enter a dob automatically to display a age field??? Is it possible give me a solution

I want my interface to display a value in a text field (text field #2) that is the same value as a different text field (text field #1). The purpose is to save the user time so he doesn't have to type the information twice. Text field #1 saves to a RULE INPUT called RECORD. Text field #2 saves to a RULE INPUT called EQUIPMENT.  The interface is ignoring the value displayed in text field #2, even though it displays a value in text field #2. As a result, no value is stored in my CDT for text field #2. My process model has a "Write to" for both RULE INPUTS and everything is going good except for this one thing that I want to carry from text field #1 to text field #2. Here is text field #1: a!textField( label: "Training Event", labelPosition: "ABOVE", value: ri!record.trainingevent,         <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< saveInto: ri!record.trainingevent, characte

I am working on a questionnaire application in which a question can be set as a parent and it can have multiple child questions. I have created two different tables, one to hold parent questions and the other one to hold child questions. Also, I have created two different CDT's for the same in Appian. In interface, I am displaying all the questions in a grid layout using foreach. If a question has child questions, I want to display those child questions right below the parent question as part of the same grid layout but currently I am unable to do so since parent and child questions are of two different CDT's. Is there a way I can list both parent and child questions in the same grid? Thank you in Advance.

Hi, We have built a pop-up  window that can only display text. but now we would like to make an editable window like grids or another interface. This is the code we have written to display the text, if we want to display an interface with input box for example, how to make it? a!buttonArrayLayout( buttons: { a!buttonWidget( label: "Button", style: "NORMAL", confirmHeader: "test", confirmMessage: ri!sample, confirmButtonLabel: "submit", cancelButtonLabel: "cancel" ) }, align: "START" )   Thanks 

Hi, I'm needing some direction on how to assign a user selection to a local variable. For some context: There are several drop down selections on my interface. Based on what the user selects in each category will affect the total price. So I'm gathering that I'll need several local variables, one for each drop down selection, and then a total where they are all added up. I just cant seem to figure out how to assign what the user selects to a local variable. Or maybe there's a better way to go about it? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, I have an editable grid where I can update the data and add new employees. So far so good. When we try to click on "Add Employee", we were able to add multiple rows to the grid successfully with proper ID number. The issue is, by any chance if we delete the middle row(in this case, I have deleted row#5 item) (Image#2), the row number is not re-setting. Is there away, I can read number or rows in the grid dynamically and show this ID column values dynamically in a sequence.

I'm new to Appian and my users are asking to have an input mask on date controls.  They don't want to take their hands off the keyboard so they don't want to click on calendar controls, etc.  When entering dates they don't want to have to enter the /'s either.  Is it possible to use an input mask such as __/__/____ so the user can enter 01012022 and the control converts it to 01/01/2022 prior to executing validations.
