Better support for tables in blog posts

Tables are a great way to organize information and I've used them in nearly every blog post. However, on the new PI Square, tables must be copied and pasted from elsewhere (e.g. Excel) and they lose all borders, hyperlinks, and cell fill colours. ...

Enable compact view for lists of discussions (e.g., Recent Activity, Unanswered Questions, My Feed)

When viewing a list of posts (e.g., Recent Activity on the Home page), each entry shows the title plus a block of text plus tags plus response buttons making for a lot of scrolling. Is there a way to collapse this to a more compact list view simil...

Enhance element creation to use user defined element templates

The interface can automatically create an element at each level of event frames, but the elements do not derive from a template and there is no way to specify any attributes on the element. The enhancement request is to create elements that are ba...

PI EMDVB Interface - Rename Parsed Files

PI EMDVB Interface - Rename Parsed Files.  Files that get renamed to .999 is no longer available with PI EMDVB.  This file renaming feature was very useful from a system maintenance perspective.  We would easily remove .999 from the...

PI EFGen 4.1+ has limited recovery capabilities

Up to PI EFGen 4.0, we were able to backfill OOO Event Frames by simply inputting the start and end time of the corresponding period. Since 4.1, this must be done in a per-event basis, since larger time ranges are modified so that RST matches the ...

Have the FTB Interface support multiple stop events for Unit Procedures

There are instances where a batch must be manipulated creating two Unit Released events in the event file. The desired behavior for the PI FactoryTalk Batch Interface would be for the second end time to overwrite the first end time when data is be...

Have the FTB interface not truncate the trailing "-#" index (e.g. UnitProcedureName-1) at the end of a Unit Procedure

Some FactoryTalk batch processes have overlapping Unit Procedures with trailing indexes. Because the trailing index is truncated it results in overlapping Unit Procedures with the same name which are then merged. The desired behavior would be for ...

Have the FTB interface capture "Active Step Change Commencing" events as event frames

Some FactoryTalk batch processes require "Active Step Change Commencing" event to be part of the batch hierarchy however the PI Interface for Factory Talk Batch starts event frames only on [EVENT] = "System Message" or "State Change".

Be able to hide the "Getting Started with the Community" pane

This pane appears on a person's own profile and is needed only when the person is new to the new PI Square. After that, it is a waste of visual space. Arguably, if the pane never existed, I think that users learn just fine on their own how to use ...

Enable links to specific comments in a discussion

In the old PI Square, there were direct links to each post in discussion thread, which was handy for (at least) the following three use cases: 1. Alerts (email or on the site) for new posts on a discussion took you directly to the new post. 2. Ale...
