Automatically update changes to Event Frame attributes

As a PI DataLink user, I would like for attributes for the Event Frames I am viewing with the Explore or Compare Events functions to update automatically, rather than having to use the Clear Cache button in the Settings window to retrieve new values.

Add the ability to multi-select and move display columns in Asset Filter Search, Explore Events, and Compare Events

Currently, only a single item can be selected and moved (or deleted) in the "Attributes to display" list in Asset Filter Search. An analagous behavior exists in the "Columns to display" list in Explore Events, and Compare Events. For each of these...

PI DataLink Time Filtered Function should be as accurate as the results given by an equivalent Analysis.

For example: Time Filtered in DataLink with: 'sinusoid>98' Start Time: Y End Time: T Should give the same result as: TimeGT('sinusoid','y','t',98)

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".
