Continue display of the next form field on the same line.
I want to be able to design my forms to logically use the space on the page with some lines containing one field, some two, and even some three, horizontally. My forms are so enormously long because a whole line is wasted for one small field. I am aware of the two column option, but I can't place my fields where I want them, they just start at the top and cluster together. One column only and two columns only is not friendly at all to the way forms look in reality. Please add the option to continue
Barcode
Hello, In a barcode scanner, initially i have set up the scanner like when you scan the barcode it should straight go to the next field below the previous field so it means for the browser we have used enter button and for zoho it means i have submitted the form. So basically unless, Zoho doesnt update their function on enter button this is not possible on zoho. But i think there is a workaround for this like when i scan the barcode On User Input it should straight go the field i point out at using
Find "closest" previous record that "matches" the current record
Has anyone (Damien Cregan?) found the best way to find the "closest"/"nearest" previous record that matches the current record without getting the "x is an empty set and values cannot be retrieved" error? For example: RecordSet = FormA [Criteria 1 == x && Criteria2 == y && Added_Time >= "some date"]; for each record in RecordSet { if record.Field == SomeCriteria { PreviousRecord = FormA [Field1 = record.Field1 && Added_Time < record.Added_Time && ??????]; } } This works in some situations,
Custom Solution limitations: Is my work down the drain?
I have been working on and off over the past couple of years building a solution for a specyfic industry. I was about ready to release my first version at the start of this year, but then Zoho implemented their Developer program, which basically said that I couldn't use Creator to make a SaaS app. That hurt, but I (painfully) converted my Creator app to a Developer app. Six months later, I'm ready to start getting clients on-board. But I JUST came across the limitations Zoho has implemented for
File Stream
Hello Zoho Support, I'm creating an apps which will upload file to zoho creator and will also upload the file to zoho docs using it's API. But the problem is how can I pass the File Input Stream of the File_upload field of creator form? Because File_upload is a string, I need the actual File to be pass on zoho docs. this is my sample codes: data = Map(); data.put("filename","SampleName"); data.put("content",input.File_upload); Multi_Line1 = postUrl("https://apidocs.zoho.com/files/v1/upload?authtoken="authtokenCodeHere"=docsapi",data);
Displaying report in public website - can't get it to work
What apparently seemed to be a fairly easy task, it's becoming a nightmare for me. I have created report with the price list of all our services. This report includes 7 fields like Service name, price, category etc... show in the image below and the list goes on... Now, what I need is to filter out things displayed on my website where I will publicly be showing our price list, but I don't want all columns to be seen. For example I need only Service and Price columns to be shown. What I've tried is:
Better Search Filters - Community Forums
The ZC Community forums are an invaluable source of information for users seeking help. However, one of its limitations is the search feature. More often than not, I have to turn to Google to search the forums for relevant information, rather than using the community forums built in search feature. When I search the community forums, I'm often presented with outdated information that was published many years ago. It can be hard to "drill down" to find exactly what I need. Here are suggested search
Rich Text Field Editor and Tag support
Why is there no HTML editor for RTF fields? You can insert HTML code, but you can't edit the entire field. The Notes filed has is, but not the RTF filed. The tools available don't allow it to do much. I worked around this by creating a multi-line text field. On the click of a decision box the HTML code is copied to the multi-line field, ediited there, on the click of another box it is copied back. Works pretty well, but I find not all tags are supported. I want to do a nested outlined list.

Custom Colors/CSS for individual series in a page dashboard
Hi, I have a gauge chart that shows me a count of ticket status ie. in progress/late/done/not started. At the moment they chart can be styled with set colors or on a color scale. Is there anyway to specify a color based upon the series/field - late is red, not started is grey etc... ? The fields are based on a fixed drop down so there is no chance of mis-spellings or accidental additions. Thought this would be an abvious feature given how customizable Zoho is. Maybe I've just not found it yet :)

Too Many Active Sessions
My team and I keep running into this warning. Does anyone know what it means? We have a subscription for the Creator services, and use it between two offices. We have one username and password per office. We have about 50 people using it at this point. Typically, when we run into it, I ask some users to log out so that whoever gets the warning can log in and complete a task. Once they're finished, I ask them to log out so that others can still have access. However, we then have also run into warnings

Zoho Creator - Item Group
Hello All, I've been wondering if there's a way to have item groups in Zoho Creator (the same concept as in Zoho Inventory or CRM). I work in the furniture business, more often than not, a single product can have other product components associated with it. For example: we might have a sofa that's upholstered in 2 fabrics from different suppliers. Instead of detailing every product in it's own separate line, it would be much easier and simpler to present the sofa (along with its associated fabrics)
Double Column Form with a Subform
My app has a crowded form with a subform in the bottom. When making the form double-column, the subform doesn't peacefully overflow the first column and stretches the 1st column so much that the 2nd column becomes ugly and useless. Is there a way to add a subform to a 2 column form and keep the design tidy?

getTime function not working
I'm using the 'getTime' function in a Creator app but when I save it I get the error "Not able to find getTime function". I'm trying to use it as a function instead of a method.

Create a text document that is dynamic based on data inputted into creator by the user.
I'm using Zoho creator to create an Application which analyzes data thats given to it and creates a custom "text report" based on it. My plan was to have several pre determined documents that have dynamic variables within them. Do I also need to use Zoho writer to do this? Or would this be possible with deluge scripts alone? I'm new to Zoho as a whole and deluge. Thanks
