Suggestions from May 2022
Please add and suggestion or feature you would like to see in Ninox here and after a while I will collated them and send the off to Ninox support. Please keep your suggestion short and to the point and not start a dialog as this will help me collated the info.....
Ie Please could you add some more design elements to the print report designer such as boxes and ruled lines!
-
a view with a background picture and the ability to place fields free-form on the background image.
-
It would be so handy to be able to add comments in the code like in a real program
// Update the fields of Table1 DynamicMultiChoice with the values of the MultipleChoice field do as server // Pour chaque enregsitrement for t in select Table1 do // update the DynamicMultiChoice field t.(DynamicMultiChoice := for i in t.split(concat(MultipleChoice), ", ") do // search for records in Table2 of each item selected in MultipleChoice first(select Table2 where i = Text).ID end) end endIn addition, it would allow you to remove bits of code temporarily to test others
/* var a := for i in select Table2 do i.ID end;*/ var a := (select Table2).ID;-
Jacques TUR Mel Charles Definitely would like both of these too ... !! :-)
-
Jacques TUR definitely needed. For now I am just using " comment ";

-
First Value 0. FIX this bug This Curve Plan vs Real is very Bad represented.
-
The ability to use escape characters in template strings (---) so that the { and } characters can be inserted:
var fieldName := "table"; var value := "Table1" --- var i = \{ {fieldName} : {value} \};---result : "var i = { table : Table1 };"
This would be very useful for building HTML/JavaScript strings
-
A calendar as a view, and as a layout element
-
John Halls Second that
-
-
Y axis data ranges for charts. I keep track of a daily market value which is alway between 150 and 250 and I don’t need the chart to go to zero.

Let me know how I do that in a curve S with Plan vs Real ?
In excel I dont have any problem but in Ninox is imposible
How represent these curve in Ninox I here option if there are ?
-
John Halls
Realy if any can help with that appreciate.
I need represent a curve like that.
-
Rafael No idea! This is a thread for suggestions, not solutions. Sorry...
-
John Halls Yes Sorry
-
-
The ability to have different formatting of field based on device. The checkboxes are too small on an iPhone so it would be great if we can make them bigger if the user is on a small device.
-
The ability to set a field as 'unique' and the 'required' field truly required.
-
Alan Cooke second this
-
-
The most important thing here is that Ninox solves the bugs first, and then at least Plan some of these ideas and make them come true at least one or two
-
Rafael Good idea. We could list the bugs we would like to see fixed
.
-> For my part, I would like the HTML function to work in the reports.

-
Lost Radio Button, duplicate it on the MacOS, Android & Web, app on v3.6.6. Just to be clear this only happens on reference fields. Fix this.
-
I want the chart to NOT plot the null values FIX this
-
Ability to sort tables / views on multiple fields. Sort by date and within that by name: standard practice on all db software. Cannot find the equivalent in Ninox.
-
More control on formatting a form.
- If I want some space between two fields, adding a space element makes it look quite odd.
- Adding a border element to fields - the Ninox version 3 was tough on the eyes - did not know where an element is. Had to use tab colours as contrast.
-
Don't remember if this made the Christmas wish list.
The ability to modify multiple field characteristics at once. Like the ability to set formatting for multiple number fields. Or the ability to set Display only if for multiple fields. Or any other characteristic, like binding etc.
-
The ability to search your fields in the Edit Fields window. If you have a large quantity of fields then trying to find them can prove challenging since we can't sort them. So some ability to find fields quickly would be awesome.
-
Regrettably
You will recall that I uploaded and followed up the suggestions complied on list 1 (Christmas wish list 1). Not because we all thought it would guarantee implementation but one hoped that someone from the Ninox development team would cogitate on some of the ideas and maybe give consideration as to advantages/disadvantages/practicality and how often some of the member suggestions may have cropped up.
Well - to date following several emails to support I have received in return ...... Nothing! It would have been nice to get a response even if it only said - thank you for the list we will consider it.
I have to say that this is not normally the response I usually receive to my emails as they are often answered reasonably promptly.
However as there is a little to asking for a reply I feel that on that basis there is little to be gained by adding any more to this thread....
Apologies to those that have taken the time to add their comments
Mel
