Bonus TIPS for Successful Posting

Try a Search First
It is highly recommended that a Search be done on your topic before posting, as many questions have been answered in prior posts. As with any search engine, the shorter the search term, the more "hits" will be returned, but the more specific the search term is, the greater the relevance of those "hits". Searching for "table" might well return every message on the board while "tablesum" would greatly restrict the number of messages returned.

When you do post
First, make sure you are posting your question in the correct forum. For example, if you post an issue regarding Desktop applications on the Mobile & Browser Applications board , not only will your question not be seen by the appropriate audience, it may also be removed or relocated.

The more detail you provide about your problem or question, the more likely someone is to understand your request and be able to help. A sample database with a minimum of records (and its support files, zipped together) will make it much easier to diagnose issues with your application. Screen shots of error messages are especially helpful.

When explaining how to reproduce your problem, please be as detailed as possible. Describe every step, click-by-click and keypress-by-keypress. Otherwise when others try to duplicate your problem, they may do something slightly different and end up with different results.

A note about attachments
You may only attach one file to each message. Attachment file size is limited to 2MB. If you need to include several files, you may do so by zipping them into a single archive.

If you forgot to attach your files to your post, please do NOT create a new thread. Instead, reply to your original message and attach the file there.

When attaching screen shots, it is best to attach an image file (.BMP, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, etc.) or a zip file of several images, as opposed to a Word document containing the screen shots. Because Word documents are prone to viruses, many message board users will not open your Word file, therefore limiting their ability to help you.

Similarly, if you are uploading a zipped archive, you should simply create a .ZIP file and not a self-extracting .EXE as many users will not run your EXE file.

    Calculated numbers on Desktop and mobile are different

    version 12.4.4.4 build 4246-4859
    sql server 2008r2

    all my field are decimal (20,2) in the database.
    all my controls types are number

    I have an mobile app , I have a screen were i calculate the total for the cust charge using stripe when i call the action for stripe on my computer i get the proper amount, when i run the app on my phone it is multiply by 1000. when i run the app in working preview or live preview I get proper result picture1 but when I publish the app to the server and run it the numbers are multiply by 1000 see picture 2 . I tried everything and check my data and it just does not make sense. anyone has an idea?

    Is it possible that some javascript is failing on your phone? What does debugging tell you? I know that Stripe likes values in cents. But the conversions that take place are all * and / 100... not 1000.

    I've created a number of Stripe based mobile apps and I've never see an issue. What device are you using?

      Re: Calculated numbers on Desktop and mobile are different

      sorry it took a long time. here what is happening:

      I have a list with detail view.

      the list shows the proper numbers.
      the detail view shows the proper numbers.

      where it gets weird is that I have another list were I want these numbers to be transferred.
      so in the other list detail view i am setting the value of those using calculated field expression by just referring to
      to the field in the field in the first detail view.

      what i noticed is that as soon as one of the field has a decimal value it wont transfer properly. I put a example accessible on the web at app.sc360.com/test.a5w

      the funny thing is if you download the component and open the component in working preview the numbers are matching as soon as publish it to the web and
      open it with the browser the numbers are not the same anymore .

      and yes i tried with getvalue and set value and the same thing happened.


      i am attaching my test component.

        Thanks for the sample... it make things so easy. I'm not using 4246. I'm using today's release of 4254. I'm not seeing what you're seeing. Have a look...

        http://162.247.131.210/Test_Decimals.a5w

        Same results LivePreview and published server.

        Are your Alpha development build and server build the same versions and builds?

            Your dev and server builds MUST be the same... otherwise it's just a mess.

            I wonder if this is the issue...

            Have a look in the release notes for this topic...

            http://aadocuments.s3.amazonaws.com/...easeNotes.Html

            ux component - number formats
            It looks like the Regional Settings on your Server are not using period for decimal and comma for thousands. This makes sense since you're in Quebec.

            But... your UX is set for period (decimal) and comma (thousands).

            Read the doc and change your UX settings accordingly.

            I was changing the value of GTOTAL to 11112222.22 and then clicked back into your List. The number changed to 11112222,22

              David you are the best. when i think I stayed up till 4:30am trying to figure this out.

                Glad that worked out. In the words of Roseanne Roseannadanna... It's always something.

                  David: Just a quick question if I may, you say you have used the stripe module, I am trying to figure out where to put the " allowRememberMe = false" or "data-allow-remember-me = false" so that the question "Remember me" on the strip checkout does not appear. I tried adding it in the javascript object but it's not recognized. I was thinking you probably know. and also do you know if we can use a card reader with alpha for mobile app

                  Thanks
                  Sylvain

                    I've not used that option. Try adding the remember me option to the StripeCheckout.configure section... or to the handler.open section... either will work.

                    Code:
                    allowRememberMe: false

                    For a credit card reader, since it's hardware, I believe you'd have to find a plugin for it.

                      I've edited my last post to reflect the correct use of allowRememberMe.

                      This only works, however, if you start out by using the Stripe Action Javascript... and then convert that action into code. The Action Javascript only exposes some of the Stripe properties.
