Automatically refresh elements when they are copied and pasted in PSE

When elements are copied and pasted in PI System Explorer, the pasted element should be automatically refreshed (equivalent to right clicking the element and clicking “Refresh”). If the pasted element is not refreshed, attributes with PIPoint dat...

Allow to hide Elements

Now we can hide individual attributes. I would like to hide elements too. We can use this to hide configuration elements, prevent setting many (all) attributes to hidden, hide unused elements, etc. Thinking this through, this implies that all chil...

Add a UOM prefix database

The UOM database is currently cluttered with SI-prefixed units. To help clean this up, there should be a UOM prefix database. Then instead of having J, kJ, MJ, etc. in the UOM database, you would just map the SI prefix set to J. Also, instead of ...

Add pH to the UOM database

pH is a common enough unit that it should be in the UOM database by default. It is also tricky for customers to add pH themselves and get the dimensions correct, so it is best that OSIsoft does this for us.

AF Asset Health Points

AF Health Points which monitor connections to data sources outside of PI.  For example, a heartbeat or connection status tag which looks at all ODBC connections.  Or a health point which looks for stale attributes within elements.

Configurable return when hovering over element in PI System Explorer (PI AF)

Make it configurable to show the "Description" of an element (or any other field configured by the user) when hovering over an element in PI System Explorer instead of only showing its path.

Ability to use templates from a different database

On the AF server we have things structured in different databases. When working in a database it would be great if I could use a database template (e.g. element template) from a different database. In some cases these templates are valid for both ...

Support string values in formula data references

Formula data references do not support string value type attributes (e.g. if stringattribute="Yes" then "X" else "Y"). One workaround is to create an analysis on the element template with the same logic mapped to an attribute on the element templa...
