Rename the "Table" symbol to something more descriptive (e.g. "Stream Statistics Table")

Previously, the "Table" symbol was the only tabular symbol in PI Vision. However, now, we also have the "Asset Comparison Table" symbol and the "Time Series Table" symbol, but the original "Table" symbol is still called "Table", which is confusing...

Use proper names instead of programming naming conventions (e.g. "RDBMS", not "Rdbms")

From the "Configuration" home page, if I click on an AVEVA Adapter instance and then click on the "Configure Adapter" button, then, in the page that appears, I can see the name of the AVEVA Adapter in the top left corner. However, this name is wri...

Ability to clear and not send notifications on Notification service startup.

Be able to sort Elements and be displayed in ways other than alphabetically.

We have seen several instances where we would like to have the order of element displayed in AF/Vision be sorted by process order, not alphabetically.  Suggest adding a "sort" field and an option to have element arranged by that rather than a...
