    Compress archives that are backed up using "Copy"

    Currently, when a "copy" backup occurs, the archives are copied as-is. Archive files take up a lot of space, but they also compress very well (if you deleted a bunch of tags without creating as many new ones), and since archive backups are rarely ...

    Better Error Handling and Reporting

    XOR operator for expression analyses

    AF (and PE) expressions currently have AND and OR operators. These work either logically or (if both operands are integer) in a bitwise fashion. There should also be an XOR operator that works the same way, to avoid the messy construct (A AND NOT ...

    Analysis Preview Results - Automatically scroll to result row

    After generating "Preview Results" (from right mouse click on analysis name on PSE Analysis Templates tab) it would be nice if the upper results table would auto scroll to the related time value when using the trend cursor to click on the results ...

    New AF analyses should be automatically backfilled a set time interval upon creation.
