Hello.   I have a time series chart with a 30-day history of a property, and a target value. I want the line to be coloured differently when it is above/below the target. The State Formatting option only colours the marker from the data point, but not the line.   Does anyone know how to colour the line? My purpose is to have it like this: Red line when below the target Green line when above the target   Thank you

Recently a customer from the ThingWorx Academic Program sent in a sample program they were having problems with. They were trying to post data from a Raspberry PI using Python to their ThingWorx server. It turns out that their program did work just fine and was also a great example of posting data from a PI using REST.Here is how to set up this example.1. Import the attached "Things_TempAndHumidityThing.xml" entity file.2. from the PI run 'sudo pip install requests'3. from the PI run 'sudo pip install logging'4. from the PI run 'sudo pip install http_client'5. Create a python file call test.py that contains this example code:#!/usr/bin/pythonimport requestsimport jsonimport loggingimport sys# These two lines enable debugging at httplib level (requests->urllib3->http.client)# You will see the REQUEST, including HEADERS and DATA, and RESPONSE with HEADERS but without DATA.# The only thing missing will be the response.body which is not logged.try:    import http.clien

Hey Everyone,   I am using ThingWorx v 8.5.0 and am having trouble increasing the font size of a drop down list . I am using the 'DropDown' widget, and have changed the 'item-value' font-size style property to 20px.     However, this seems to only make the 'hint text' in the drop down list larger, but when I expand the drop down, all the values are still a smaller font size.     Am I missing something basic here? How can I increase the font-size of the selection items in the new drop down widget? Thanks so much for your help!   Andrew

Hi,    I'm running the c-sdk 2-2-3-1545  in a device and when I try to download a file from the Thingworx repository to the device, by using twFileManager_GetFile(), I receive the following error:    [ERROR] 2019-12-03 15:09:59,666: twMessaging::handleMessage: Response ID 20 has code 160: Entity FileTransferSubsystem does not exist or is not yet associated with a Thing [ERROR] 2019-12-03 15:09:59,666: twFileManager_TransferFile: Error invoking Copy service on FileTransferSubsystem   I tried to call the Subsystems["FileTransferSubsystem"].Copy() service (In the Thingworx side) to validate the parameters that I was using, and everything worked fine. Can anybody help me with that ? Did you faced that error before? Thanks in advance. 

Hello Everyone,   I would like to extend an existing FileRepository Thing with links to directories in the same network as the Thingworx server.    When simply copying the Links into the FileRepository (on the Thingworx server, not the composer view), the content of these directory links is not traversed when running e.g "BrowseDirectory" service of the Repository.   Is there a way to also access the content of these links? The reason is that we have some projects distributed in the network and the files of these projects should be accessed via a Thingworx Thing (preferably fileRepositoryThing)   Any suggestions are appreciated very much!   Best Regards, Dominik

Hi,   How do i need to return data from another mashup (modal popup) with the new navigation function in TW8.5? By using the navigation widget the variables are shown in the properties, but there is no property section in the new navigation function. I can only bind data to the mashup in the "Mashup Parameters section", but i can not get data from the mashup. All the parameters have a two way binding.   Kind Regards, Nick

@htran-21 This is great!  I've been searching around to try to figure out how you're extracting the JS from the XML, but not having much luck.  Could you please share your process to extract and create the corresponding .js/.sql files?

Hi, May I know how to use thingworx services to display this chart using label chart widget? 

I have an Allen-Bradley Micro820 Programmable Logic Controller and was wondering if its possible to connect that to ThingWorx Industrial Connectivity directly. That and if Siemens PLC's are able to connect as well. Any input is welcomed.

Essentially I want to simulate data of the three above systems so that it can be sent over to a Thingworx server (EMS). There will of course be corresponding hardware that will be needed to simulate some of these. My project will be using the Raspberry Pi 3 b+ to host the server and as a way to connect some of the hardware that will aid in simulating the industrial connectivity data.   An idea I've been playing around with is using WinSPS-S7 V6 to simulate the PLC data (https://www.mhj-tools.com/winsps-s7/). As for the rest, I am unsure. Any insight or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.   

I have a Thingworx 8.3 instance on Ubuntu working and added Manufacturing Apps 8.3.0.

Hi. I have an infotable bound to an Advanced Grid widget (using v4.2.1 from the marketplace) and I see that the column sorting is not readily available as it is with the standard Grid widget. I checked the documentation, and it only specifies how to sort columns when you have Data Table as a source, but I'm interested in using infotables.    I have a service that sorts the infotable based on a column input, but I don't see how that could help me, as I can't dynamically pass the column name to the service.   Can anyone give me some help on this? Thank you

Hi guys,   I have a password as a property on a thing.  I however need the password to run a service.   Where or how do I generate the key required to decrypt the password with the decrypt service in the EncryptionServices resource?   var result = Resources["EncryptionServices"].DecryptWithKey({ data: "" /* STRING */,key: "" /* STRING */});

Hi,   I think, me and EMS won't be friends 😞   First my scenario: I have a edge-device where I only can deploy docker-container (via a web-gui) and I can connect to the device via ssh. I build a dockerfile based on ubuntu which includes the EMS (with config.json etc.). If I run my container the edge-device is connected to thingworx (running in aws).   Now I want use EMS-tunneling to connect to the edge device via ssh.   Problem: In the guide (http://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx_hc/thingworx_edge/index.html#page/thingworx_edge_sdks_ems%2Fws_ems%2Fv5.4.0_c_ems_wsems_configuration_tunnel.html%23) it saids you have to install UltraVNC Server on the mashine where EMS is running, but only a windows version is available. So I installed ThinVNC with Xfce-Desktop manually on the ubuntu docker instance. So on some steps of the installation you have todo some inputs - very bad for a docker deployment. After installing a try to start ThinVNC but I get a error message "vncser

I couldn't find any specific post in regards to my question, so I did research on the two subjects individually.   STREAMS - time series data (timestamp and additional data) has a list of activities from things or data associated with things thought of as a table structure with five predefined fields and any number of user-defined fields: timestamp tag source source type location PROPERTIES - how you describe the data points that are directly related to a thing. Each property has a name, description and a data type    Note: Any informative feedback to my question would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and have a nice day!
