Add Event IDs to event logging

Currently, events logged for the OPC UA Connector all have an Event ID of 0. I've had to dig around in Event Viewer quite a bit for troubleshooting, and it's frustrating not to be able to filter events by ID. I mention the UA Connector because tha...

More granular access rights for displays

Allow a more granular access level for displays like with url-parameters. The owner of the display should for example be able to allow only to access the display in kiosk mode. It would be great if there would be great if the access level would be...

stricter read-only access for displays / kiosk mode on display level

Allow to choose a stricter read-only access to displays. So the user is not able to modify the display or change symbol configurations. Something like kiosk-mode URL-Parameter but with the ability to change the Y-Scale of a trend-symbol and to exp...

Simplify the security configuration for OPC UA

The newer OPC UA protocols have stricter security standards, which is good, but that makes configuring connections more difficult, especially with regard to the need to put in tunneling and open ports. It should be easier to establish a secure con...

Event Frame Comparison - More options for trend

When comparing several event frames today the trend has almost no options compared to a normal trend. It would be good if you were able to change the background color of the Event Frame Comparison trends for instance.

Ability to set colour of trend line when clicking on the Gauge Symbol
