Add column for 'UserIdentityString' in AF Server Connections dialog

The AF Server Connections dialog is similar to the Network Manager Statistics plugin in PI System Management Tools. For administrators, it would be useful to see the security identity string for each connection to the AF server. This will help adm...

Remove Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Tools For Office Runtime (VSTO Runtime) from any install kits that contain PI AF Client

According to this, VSTO Runtime is included with PI AF Client for the sake of PI Builder. The installation of VSTO Runtime also causes the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable to be installed as well. However, accordin...

Allow 'Jump To Element' functionality in PSE

When viewing Element Search results, it would be useful to have a Right-Click option to 'Jump To' the element in the hierarchy. The same is true for Attribute Search results.

AF security for child elements

We want to allow certain users (=identity) to modify parts of our AF structure. For example we have a structure Elements\Wärmetauscher\Anlage1 with several heat exchangers (=Wärmetauscher) as child elements. Now one special user should be able t...
