Program Detail Tree Suggestion

[jgraziano]

Would it be a major undertaking to display programs in the tree that are not enabled with a red 'X' through the program icon? I know it's in the summary, but it would be nice to see it in the tree also.

 

Thanks.

I kind-of wished there was only one tree that had everything in it under the main tab including some icon feedback as you suggested. The main and the programming tabs are a bit redundant and could be combined someday.

That's a good idea. Hopefully they'll look at it for future release

jgraziano,

 

I have added your first suggestion (making disabled programs red) as an enhancement requirement to our database.

 

As far as having everything in a tree, we tried that: it'll be quite impractical for larger installations as the tree gets too long and confusing.

 

With kind regards,

Michel

Thanks Michel.

Thanks Michel. Icons are good.

It's only too long if the user is one of those guys that opens the the whole tree all at one time. It's the folders make it work. And it works well even with large installs. There have been many programs in the past for X10 that used one tree and it worked well. Just my 2 cents.
