User Experience Design

I would like to use a decision table to determine a particular display configured as an expression.   If an object is of type A and Status B, then display rule!AB.  The configured expression would not take in any inputs and is only for display purposes. 

Hello everyone, All of my interfaces start to suffer after ~1,000 - 1,500 lines of code or more. By 'suffer' I mean... It becomes extremely unbearable to design an interface in either 'design mode' or 'expression mode.' When I click on a component, or try to go from 'design' to 'expression' modes, saving, checking performance - basically every imaginable action I try to perform is delayed by 10+ seconds. I don't think this is a client side issue. I have 2 other teammates on my team facing similar issues and we all have good internet, using Chrome, etc. When clicking and waiting 10-15seconds for the 'performance' screen to load, it does show that the interface is decent performing, but when designing it... it is abysmal. Here is copy/paste of all the components on my interface: FunctionSortable column, activate to sort ascending CountSortable column, activate to sort ascending Total Time (ms)Sortable column, sorted descend

What is best practice for this? I am trying to make an interface that schedules maintenance for a vehicle  using my maintenance CDT and displays the vehicle information from my vehicle CDT. I am wondering what the steps to do this are. The parent CDT I believe is maintenance as it uses vehicle ID as a foreign key. I already have the read only interface for vehicle information which is uses the following constant to pass information from the vehicles table into the interface. I have also made constants pointing to the data store for maintenance for the process model which I have not designed yet. PLEASE SEE ALL CONTEXT BELOW I am trying to get the above information to display here: As far as record types go I have created a new record type for Maintenance and added a related action to my Vehicles record type using:

Good afternoon all. Here is what's going on. I am given a string, or Text variable. This variable is used to store employee IDs. Although it is one variable, it can contain several IDs (or contain none). There is nothing I can do about this and I cannot change this. Now, I need to check if this value has any of the following: no values, one value, or many values. This Text can dynamically change when a user selects IDs, or removes them, from a custom picker. If the Text has several values, I am currently using split() to separate the IDs into an array, which is working fine. Then, I have a local variable that uses the array to get the names for each of those IDs. Unfortunately, the last ID is contained in the new array, but fails to update to the name. For example, if the following IDs exist: 1, 2, and 3, It will show: Peter, Paul, and 3. I'm currently using Appian 21.3. local!employeeIDs: if( isnull(ri!record.employeeIDs), null, split(ri!record.employeeIDs, ";")
