Hello, there seem to be many things on the famous “list” for future Servoy versions. On some occasion I read a statement from one of the Servoyans that most requested features would be implemented first. Wouldn’t it be useful if Servoy published the famous list and we could make some kind of poll here? On one side, it is very helpful to see what is on the planning when you design a new solution. On the other side it could be helpful for Servoy to have one discussion about future features instead of going through hundreds of single posts in the forum. Just a thought… Patrick ---

We are thinking about setting up a web page, which can be viewed by registed Servoy developers and partners (and each one can place votes on features) ---

our TOP wish list, this would make Servoy perfect for us: 1. localisation to make our solution multilingual 2. “on search” property of a form 3. search as in FM (no “%#”) 4. disable sorts, resizing and reorder in table view 5. in list & table view scrollbars only in body 6. renaming the shortcut placed on the desktop TIA, Stef ---

Only for us, just one very importing thing more: **scriptable imports & exports** ---

since we started sort of a wish list here, here are my top requests: 1. full control over the menu bar (customizable menus) 2. custom table view (control over which fields to show, so a user can customize a table view) 3. a complete, solid mail plugin set for pop/smtp and imap since (not all beans have all required features or are unsupported, an mail functionality is very important in CRM-environments) 4. possibility to display “hierarchical” data in an explorer type of component I am sure I can come up with more ![:wink:]( "Wink"), but I am especially interested in point 1 and 2. ---

Hi Bert, What Stef means is, that you can’t set the name of the Servoy Client, the first time you download a Servoy Client! (The name in the Java Webstart!) Sure, you can rename afterwards to another name, but it would be nice, that we (developers) could set the name the first time. ---

Haven’t tried it, but I would Imagine : plugins.file.convertStringToJSFile(String fileName).renameTo(Object JSFile/String destination) would allow you to do the trick? You can make it part of the global solution onload method.
