There is a need to be able to export and import PI Vision displays so that displays can be managed offline. This would allow transferring displays between systems that are not connected, taking backups of displays, versioning displays, sharing displays with customers, vendors, and third-parties, etc.

Need to have ability to version PI Vision displays
Need to be able to revert back to earlier versions of a PI Vision display. 

Functionality so choose multiple Coresight displays and have Coresight automatically show the displays rotating from one to another in a slide show type fashion.

This is typically for showing displays in 'public areas' such as a big screen in the company cafeteria.

When creating a display using attributes (i.e. - Agitator Speed), I would like to be able to easily toggle between the name and the actual tag ID. I have access to PI System Explorer, so I can go and find it, but my end users do not and in some instances would like to display the actual tag and not the attribute name.

Please can we have the fill and the line (border) colour able to be multistated for the square/circle/pentagon shapes? Currently only fill colour can be is available to multistate.

As of right now, there is no easy way to copy the folder structure. It would either have to be recreated manually or the entire database restored via a backup.

If the PI Vision Display Utility could also migrate the folder structure it would be a big help for users and administrators.

Have an asset tree view to enable a user to browse / navigate the AF hierarchy tree, click on an element, and see the displays related to that element so that plant floor staff can easily navigate to their specific unit of interest by clicking an asset to open the relevant display.

PI Vision puts the most recently accessed display on the top. I would like to sort the displays by name/title (in alphabetical order).

In the displays page, have a tabular view for displays that shows display metadata/details in a table.

A Homepage/Landing page that we can place navigation buttons on is a much nicer user experience than browsing folders to find a display.  While the planned folder structure of organising displays is better than what is currently offered, and there are a couple of Homepage "ideas" already posted, they don't really have a clear idea of what they want. A user friendly way of navigating the hundreds of pages and trends that we have is required.  Currently 300 or so pages and probably more again in trends.  See attachment as an example.

The previous version of Coresight allowed users to choose a new asset from the asset tree and drag it onto the screen to either add new values, or replace the previous values. This was very beneficial, however the 2016 version does not provide this option it appears.

Can we get that functionality back? I'd like to pull a new asset from the left and be prompted to either replace values or add it to the existing screen. Thank you!

In addition to being able to filter and sort by display name and owner, several other fields might be considered as well. For example, date last accessed, date last modified, and date created. These fields would be useful to include in case a user wanted to manage/remove only displays that are no longer used. I'm certain there are plenty of other categories to include that would make Vision Display Utility even more robust and user-friendly, especially when making changes in bulk.

When changing AF or PI Data Archive server names using PI Vision display utility, check if the source entries for the servers are stored server references for the displays. In case, I don't specify the correct source server name (FQDN vs hostname) or have misspelled or made a typo, it is clear that the Display Utility will not make changes to the displays.

Adding the option to copy the tag name of the selected item in a PI-Vision display to the Windows clipboard, so that that tag can easily be used in another application.

As a PI Display Author I want to have the option to create different tabs in a Display. Each tab could have different content in the same Display ID. This would allow us to use the limited space of a web page.
setttings like search selected element and so on should be set for all tabs as it is for the display.

It would be nice to to be able to use PI Vision Display Utility to manage imported PI ProcessBook displays. Currently it only supports native displays.
