We are using the Agile Process Template of TFS2012 (slightly modified) and I want to add queries to Team Favourites in the template so that they will be automatically added on creation of a new team project. We want to see the same queries for every team project.
I have modified the template so that instead of the 3 Iterations being created (Iteration 1, Iteration 2 & Iteration 3), it just creates a single Iteration named 'Current'. I have then updated all of my queries to point to the 'Current' iteration instead of Iteration 1. Now I need to add these queries to Team Favourites so that they display on the web screens automatically.
Can this be done?
Thanks
Pretty sure that queries are relative to one team project, and one only.
Displaying queries on the Team Favorites section can be achieved by following these steps:
From the team home page, click the link for View work items
In the work item page left pane, find the query that you want to show
Right click on the query name
Select 'Add to team favorites'"
Also see the following article, the section on Shared Queries:

The custom list app is a nice app, to show a list of items that are currently in Rally.
What I would like to get out of this list as well, is UserStories and Defects from previous Iterations.
A page can be easily setup where you have an iteration filter on top, then a list app underneath. When the page is set to show closed / past iterations it should show the user stories and defects that have been previously assigned to the applied iteration (even if they have another iteration set currently).
Is such an app available? Searching a bit did provide any usefull apps,
Blocking history seems to do a little in that area, but looks only at things that had a blocker flag set:
https://github.com/RallyApps/app-catalog/blob/master/src/legacy/BlockingHistoryApp.html
The List from this app on the other hand cannot be modified, therefor I want to combine history with the Custom Grid app as provided by Rally.

What about the Iteration Scope Change app?
Source here:
https://github.com/RallyApps/app-catalog/blob/master/src/legacy/IterationScopeChangeApp.html
It's available directly in the app catalog in the product as well.
I’m just looking for a sanity check before I go down this road with my Windows Store App.
In the app, I am looking to have a navigation model which involves the following:
All users shown the initial page, and are asked to make a section of Items from a list before tapping continue.
Each Item has a group of pages associated with it – could be 2,3, whatever.
The user is then presented the pages in the order that they are associated with for each Item and in the order by which they selected the Items.
For example, say the user selects Items 2 & 3.
Item 2 has PageA, PageB, PageC associated with it
Item 3 has PageB, PageD, PageA associated with it.
The user journey for the App would be
Selection -> PageA -> PageB -> PageC -> PageB -> PageD -> PageA -> End
The approach I am thinking of going with involves a “UserService” which is persistent throughout the app and stores a list of the Items the user has selected (in order)
I would then have a “PagePlayer” page which would act as a container for the pages to be displayed and this would be loaded after the user is finished with the Selection.
The player would then display all the pages in order based on the Items that were saved in the UserService.
I personally don’t want to go down this road because I know that having Frames displaying Pages etc is generally a bad idea, it could ruin the navigation history etc.
Which pages are associated with each item I would have saved to a local file of some sort and have this loaded when a new Item is set to be displayed.
The number of items are “hard coded” and have IDs associated with them.
I am familiar with Prism for WPF but unfortunately the recently released Prism for Windows Runtime does not support modularity for using a composite approach.
Apologies for general-ness of this question, I couldn’t think of another way of asking it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Like many people we utilise the tree structure of each TFS project's Iteration field to organise the work items within that project. Typically we use it to track what iteration we are working in, so most of the time everyone creating a work item needs to put the same Iteration path value in new work items.
By default when you create a new work item (bug for example) this field is set to the root value of the defined tree. Given we have a tree structure in this field its fair to say that for 99% of WIs the default is never correct.
Is there a way to configure a TFS project to default the Iteration field to a specific value when creating a new work item?
Ideally this should be a per user setting, but a TFS project wide would still be better than nothing.
It's not possible to set a default value for Iteration or Area Path (at least not inside the WITD).
Two ideas come into my mind:
Create a custom control for your work items, install it on every PC and let it change the Iteration when the WI gets loaded.
Easier way: Get the power tools and create a template for your work items. There you can preselect the Iteration. Of course every user has to create their own template.
Andrei's answer lead me to some further internet research and I have found a option that fulfills my "this should be a per user setting" side of the equation;
Instal the TFS Power tools extension.
Define a new work item template
(again following my example for a bug WI) and change the iteration
path in the template to match that users current iteration path.
Save
the template.
From that point on you can add a work item using this template (team -> work item templates) and get the Iteration path default from the template.
Keep in my I am using Dashboard Designer, SharePoint 2010 and PerformancePoint Server 2010.
I have a dashboard homepage showing a KPI for sales, by brand. I added a custom property "View detailed report" on my KPI. When I click on that, I want to be able to go to a second dashboard page featuring 5 scorecards and 2 reports for my sales, by brand. The brand needs to be a filter.
Obviously, what I wanted to do is to tell my second page on which brand to filter by using a querystring parameter, something like ?BrandFilter=[Brand].[X].[Y] ...
But, in Dashboard Designer, you cannot (?) have querystring based parameters. I know I can do it directly in SharePoint (with the corresponding web part), but then when I deploy my dashboard again, I lose custom changes I do to my pages.
I tried to create a custom transform for scorecards that would read the querystring and add PageFilters, but I faced two problems:
1. I cannot access the HttpContext from there (of couse!)
2. That would not do it for reports.
What should I do? Drop Dashboard Designer and work directly in SharePoint? I wish there is a solution with Dashboard Designer!
Thanks!
I found a way to do that. I customized my scorecard generation (using C#) and added a javascript method to my master page to handle all the links that are clicked. When I click on a link in a scorecard, I get the parameter from the current URL and update a filter inside the page with that. I can share more details on request...
I'm trying to create a new module for Sitefinity. I'm basing my module off the sample module linked to from the documentation. http://www.sitefinity.com/help/developer-manual/adding-modules-pluggable-explained.html
What I want is a list of videos. On the left-hand side - the CommandPanel - there should be 3 buttons - "Videos", "Artists" and "Genres".
Whenever either of these is selected, on the right-hand-side, a list of Videos/Artists/Genres should be displayed.
The concept is simple, but what I'm struggling with is, where to actually put the code.
Should I hard-code the list directly into CommandPanel.ascx? Am I supposed to create new controls for Videos, Artists and Genres? Or should I have one control and multiple Panels, which I show/hide? And how do I connect the menu items on the left with changing the panel on the right?
NB. I might be wrong to have Videos, Artists and Genres all on the left. Maybe it should just be "Videos", and Artists and Genres should be separate module each?
I don't need a complete answer, just some direction on how to code in this framework, and where everything should go.
Hi there I just saw this come up I am not sure if you have already started this module yet you may even be finished by now, but I just wanted to say had you checked out the Sitefinity Beta for 3.6 because they are about to simplify the whole Sitefinity module process and particularly for what you are trying to do. Check it on the Sitefinity block a barebones module with the new architecture. This I think would satisfy your needs because you can create a separate "View" for each one of your Videos, Artist and Genres and all their views like create, edit etc.
