What if you could build a web chat component that you can reuse as many times as you want, that’s independent from specific scenarios, and that you can integrate in any application with only a few different configurations? Is this a dream? No, not at all.
A splash screen might feel like too simple a thing, but when it’s done right, it creates a super user experience. When customized to your application’s look and feel, it is seamless and fluid.
Who likes empty screen spaces? No one, so we fixed that for you. The PullToRefresh feature was creating an empty space on the screen, if controlled by a local variable and disabled. But not anymore.
OutSystems applications come with Font Awesome by default. But sometimes you’ll have a type of application like a weather app that needs specific icons to represent conditions such as light showers, partly sunny, or hail. In those cases, you’ll need need custom icons. So, how can you use custom icons in the OutSystems IDE? Let’s take a look.
Read our documentation to ensure a successful offline sync implementation. Learn about the logic flow in the client and server and how to automatically or manually trigger the sync. And, if you like things neat and organized, don’t miss the Sync Framework Reference, where we detail all the parts of the framework for syncing data between the server and the application.
Get ready to multitask in multiple files. The new version of Service Studio now allows you to open multiple files from the server at the same time. If you usually work with related modules with similar names, you can search them and select as many as you want! By the way, you can also open multiple files from a drive.
Now, in Service Studio, the application icon is used as home module icon and logo. That’s right, the classic red OutSystems logo is now replaced by whatever you choose for your application and it’s displayed inside the app, for example in the login screen.
Want to gauge the success of your mobile apps more effectively? The OutSystems Mobile Apps Build Service launched a new native logging mechanism, which provides full visibility of all errors that may occur in mobile apps while running on end user devices.
