Font Size
Can we have the option to specify font size for all symbols? There is currently no way to set font size in tables, bar chart/gauge, scale values in trends, etc.

Layering functionality for PI Vision similar to that of ProcessBook
PI Vision currently does not support any functionality for layers. It would nice to be able to create custom layers that could toggled on a single Vision display. ProcessBook currently has layering feature that is very useful for simplifying a complex display when not all of the information is necessary for every user.

Dynamic connectors between objects
Similar to other diagram tools available, please make it possible to draw one line between any two items on a display, and snap to them, so that they move if the object does etc.
It would also be really useful if these were aware of each other and could "jump" over each other. It's currently a very time consuming process to draw line after line and work out a way of showing where two pipes overlap rather than join.

Asset Search: Tree View / Structure in PI Vision - Not consistent with other products.
Not a fan of the Asset Framework tree structure in PI Vision. It needs to work as a tree structure just like PI System Explorer. The setup in Vision is too clunky and is hard to navigate.
Again, I would like to see the tree structure consistent in all products to mirror System Explorer.

Allow custom menu/navigation bars
All the Pi Vision screens I have seen seem to include a custom menu bar that the user creates for internal navigation that is manually copied and pasted to each screen every time there are updates to the structure. Instead, there should be the ability to create a custom menu bar, just like a header on a document so changes automatically propagate from the template outwards. This has been lumped into other ideas, but I feel it could reduce scope as a stand-alone feature.

Make trend legend optional
Add the ability to remove/disable the trend legend
16 votesThis can currently be achieved by dragging the trend plot area to the right so that the legend is no longer visible. Does that meet your needs to remove/disable the legend?

Hide trend scale range
For digital tags or Enumeration AF attribute, do not want to see the scale or scale range, because these values is not relevant to my values.

Color scheme for color blind
It would be very helpful to have an option to select a color scheme for color blind e.g. change all red trends to color that have not been used and classified as good color for color blind.

Drop down for collections
Have an option for collections to appear as a drop down list in the display. This would be beneficial for context switching in displays, so that the user could then select from a drop down on the display which element to view. Instead of having to scroll through a collection and double click the element.

PI Vision - Table - Dynamic Name column
For tables the name column should have the same dynamic feature as charts, to only display attribute name if only one element is added to the table. Today I avoid using tables for single element displays due to the current fixed Element|Attribute setup.

More control over pop up and ad hoc background color
Currently the background for ad hoc and pop up trends is controlled by the background color of the display and the background color of trends on the display. It would be nice to have more control over this setting.
For this particular use case, it would be helpful to be able to control the ad hoc background color globally. An idea would be to have this formatting option in the "Format Display" window that currently allows you to control the display background color.
I can also see a use case for controlling this on a display by display basis. Perhaps…
