Replace the Expand All/Collapse All menu of components with equivalent buttons

The Expand All/Collapse All menu is meant to be more convenient than expanding or collapsing all components individually. However, it currently takes a click, a careful mouse movement, and another click to select an option. To make this even easie...

Be able to duplicate and disable components

The ability to duplicate components would give a better starting point for components that need to be configured similarly. For example, I like components that collect little data and do so infrequently to have no data filter and have the logging ...

Specify stream properties in a CONNECT to PI transfer

Include a way to select (or filter out) different properties of a stream used in a CONNECT to PI transfer so that we can control the PI tag/s created.

Provide a scaling option to set a value for either min or max while having the other as automatic based on plotted value range.

This was useful and available in ProcessBook but not supported in PIVision. Trends can be quite messy to read and potentially misleading without this feature especially with many tags plotted and some having very small scales etc. There is a worka...

Be able to reorder components

As an AVEVA Adapter gets used more, some components might need to be added or deleted, which can leave the component list in a suboptimal order. Please allow the components to be reordered, ideally by clicking and dragging for the most frictionles...

Do not have data entry where only 1 choice is allowed (e.g. component type when adding a new component)

In the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility, when you try to add a new component to an AVEVA Adapter, you get a dropdown menu for the component type. However, there is only 1 choice: the AVEVA Adapter component type. The only required instance of t...

For PI Points created by AVEVA Adapters, use the point class "base" instead of "classic" if the PI Point does not use "classic"-specific PI Point attributes

When an AVEVA Adapter creates a new PI Point, it always uses the point class "classic", even if none of the attributes that are specific to this point class are ever used. Instead, AVEVA Adapters should create PI Points using the point class "base...

Be able to configure history recovery through the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility for AVEVA Adapters that support history recovery (e.g. OPC UA, RDBMS)

This is item #3 of this suggestion, posted as its own suggestion.

Design some UI for PI Adaptors

Design some UI for PI Adaptors, so it will be user friendly to configure the data source or data reading configurations etc. It is really hard to configure or troubleshoot an issue in PI Adaptor without Proper UI.

Be able to configure the Client Failover Service through the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility or a separate optional GUI program

The Client Failover Service suffers from the same issues as AVEVA Adapters before the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility was released: you need to constantly check against the documentation and make sure that you spelled parameters and their valu...
