For some reason, the user property called "lastConnection" resets to "1969-12-31 16:00:00.000" after a while.  This property cannot be found in the UserExtensions data shape but it can be in "User[Username].lastConnection".  What is causing it to reset and how can I prevent this?  

Hi guys.  How do I turn code completion on and off in my composer?  I've been writing services and widgets for a couple years now and all of a sudden, code completion was turned on a couple weeks ago but then it went away.  How do I get it back?

Hello,   Date Time Picker widget on Thingworx Platform 8.5.2 has a visualization problem that we don't know how to solve. When you try to select the hour or minute, both lists are displayed on the top (see attached image). The lists should be displayed near the hour and minute selector. It happens always, it doesn't matter if it is enough space or not .    The same happens with the year selector and related with this there is an article (https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS317335) but this article doesn't mention the problem with the hour and minute pickers, it only speaks about the problem with month and year picker.   Is there any work around to solve this?   Thanks in advance,   Olatz.

Hey all,   I have a mashup with a button bar and contained mashup. The contained mashup is a mashup with just the collection widget inside it. Im trying to pass the selected value of the button bar through the contained mashup and into the collection widget but nothing seems to load when I do so this way. I've checked and the contained mashup and the widget are receiving the correct String from the button bar selection. When I specify the desired mashup in the widget property (no binding) it works fine.    Any advice, is there something im missing? Im using thingworx 8.5.3.

Hello,   Running ThingWorx in Docker generates different device IDs every time container is restarted. We need to restart those containers frequently and automatically (several times per day). We have one ThingWorx license available, and even though we generate multiple device IDs, there is maximum one server running at a time. Is there a way to license it?   Regards, Constantine

Hello,   I am a newer user of Thingworx. We have created an application which involves having our Model Tag on a Thing to browse it, however I'm having difficulties trying to deploy this to say 100 things.   My initial though was to utilise the Thing Shapes/Thing Templates, but that doesn't seem to work with Model Tags. So I wanted to see if someone could offer a suggestion for mass deploying a Model Tag to Things.   Thank you.

Hey all,   A disclaimer: I'm new to Thingworx and have only been doing this for about 3 months. My problem:  I'm trying to take the output of a multi-select combo box and map it into an insert with a javascript/SQL service.  Let me describe what I'm trying to do:  I have a combo box that will allow users to select up to six values.  I then bind this to an infotable attached to a javascript service as an input parameter.  I have each field declared in a datashape that defines the infotable.  My javascript then concatenates the values together separated by a '/'. So my output is value1/value2/value3, etc as a text string.  I'm trying to combine the 6 selections into a one row insert. The javascript then calls the SQL insert.  Both services work fine when I test in the Thing stand alone.  The multiple select in the combo box works fine as I can display the selections in a grid.  The rub is that I don't know how to get the output from

Hi,   I encountered this issue when adding a new post in blog widget. The screen becomes grey when I clicked on the "Add New Post" button. This causes me not to be able to submit the post.    What could have gone wrong?    

Hi Thingworx Gurus,   I would like to know if there is a way to import an infotable into a datatable?   The reason is that I would like to display the infotable content into Advanced Grid widget and to enable filtering and sorting capabilities. It seems like the filtering and sorting features can only works when the data source is Datatable. If there is anyway that can have an infotable to work with Advanced Grid widget's filtering and sorting, would appreciate if you can share.   *Note: I have read this post and it seems that the suggested way (using InfotableFunction resource) is not working for me.

Is there a way to retrieve screen resolution information on mashup load using service or any other methods in thingworx?

Hello everyone!   I want to write my own custom widget for mashups (rewrite one of the existing ones). I installed Eclipse and the Thingworx extension for it, created a project and added a new widget there. I have not changed anything and there is a standard widget template. How do I launch this widget? That is, check it visually, connect some data to it, see how it behaves in runtime?What do I need to do for this? Download the Thingworx locally and import the build of my new widget into it? Or are there any other ways? Thanks in advance!

Curious if anybody has attempted a connection to an Azure Cosmos database with ThingWorx. To fetch the data from the cosmos database. What are the different approaches to connect the cosmos database with ThingWorx We are fairly certain that we'll need to create an extension, but if anybody has any experience with it, any advice would be greatly appreciated.       Thanks!

Hi,   So although there is a filter widget in thingworx I would like to create a different view for the filters to be displayed,like in the picture below.Is it possible for be to achieve this using existing query services?And any idea of how I could incorporate the attached Filter Display in ThingWorx?  

Hi , So I have a list which I want to act as a filter such that based on my selection the grid displays on those data.For eg.I select company ABC ,only those rows of company ABC are displayed on the screen and when selection is removed it goes back to displaying the full list.   Now I have two Things that share the same company name ABC,and as it is a dropdown it show "ABC" twice in the list.As I have a filtering purpose the name being displayed once is more than enough,so is there a way I can make it display only once so as to reduce extra list rows and improve the UI.   Please refer image for better understanding,also I have bound the dropdown lists and the grid to a thing template which is the base for all the things.
