TABLE: Allow Asset Comparison table to be transposed
In the paper industry, there are fewer assets at a site, but those assets tend to have many attributes (e.g., there may only be 3 paper machines, but each has 100 attributes of interest). It would be helpful if the Asset Comparison table in PI Vision could be transposed so that asset names were Column headings and attribute names were rows.
For example, instead of a table with 5 rows and 100 columns (that can't be seen all at once on one display page), it would be better to have four columns of assets names with 100 rows of values, where the attribute name was the first cell in each row.
Such as Paper Machine 1....PM2....PM3
Model # 123 456 789

Need this, The comparison table is stupid wide because of the lenght of the attribute names.

I've come across a few cases in the oil & gas industry that this feature would also be helpful for.

I have talked to users from two different customers who have requested this functionality for the exact same reason: many more attributes per asset than assets in the table.
Edit: customers are in Chemicals and O&G Downstream. -

I'm in the transmission and distribution industry and have the same issue. The number of circuit breakers associated with another element are few but the circuit breaker attributes are many. It would be really good to have the elements as the columns and the attributes as rows.
Also the attribute names tend to be longer than the element names so having them as rows would better for this reason also.
