Hi everyone,
I'm creating a custom workspace in App Engine Studio and need help with two issues:
1. Variable Editor spacing in RTL languages
In the Requested Item / Catalog Task form, I'm using the Variable Editor formatter with the com_glideapp_servicecatalog_veditor UI Macro.
In RTL languages, when the Variable Editor displays a split layout, there is no spacing between the variables.
When I inspect the page, I see that the component uses only padding-left, so in RTL mode the spacing disappears.
Here’s the confusing part:
I tried to reproduce it in my PDI, but there the spacing looks correct, so I couldn’t take a screenshot of the problematic CSS. This makes me think the issue might be related to:
Workspace version differences
A different theme - My workspace use Polaris Theme
A global CSS override
Something specific to my main instance
Because I want the fix to be global (it affects Service Operations Workspace too), how can I override or update the CSS for this formatter in a reliable, upgrade-safe way?
In rtl language I don't have the space between the left side variables to right side variables.
2. Setting data visualization columns in a custom workspace
On the workspace Landing Page, I want to configure which columns appear in my data visualizations.
My data source is Requested Item and Catalog Task tables. I tried adding columns (including catalog item variables) in the workspace editor, but:
When I add or change columns in my custom workspace, it also modifies the data source columns in another workspace using the same data source.
I need to configure columns only for my workspace, without affecting others.
How can I add catalog item variables as columns in the data visualization?
Any guidance or best practices on handling CSS overrides and workspace-specific data configurations would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
