Ignition Features and Ideas

Add the "SFC Monitor" Vision component to Perspective.

Add the option of including user/password into the system.perspective.login() function to allow the creation of custom login pages that use configured IDP's. Or some alternative that enables this option.

Similar to JDialog with setModal(true), but with Ignition's windows. Maybe a third optional argument in system.nav.openWindow(path [, params]) NOT this: http://www.inductiveautomation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=6984

I suggest an additional type of template parameter that is a specialized version of the string-type parameter, for the primary purpose of allowing the templates to accept drag-and-drop from tags and immediately interpret them as their tag path. It would then also allow UDTs to interactive more natively with Indirect Tags, which has all manner of positive side-effects (repeaters, canvases, etc). Fundamentally it should be the same as a string-type parameter, but with the addition of allowing interactions with the template to prioritize using the tag path rather than other aspects of the tag. For instance if you drag and drop a UDT onto the template that has a path-type parameter flagged as the Drop Target, it will fill the field with the path of the UDT rather than a UDT-type parameter that would latch onto the UDT itself.

Hello, I think for me and my customers (and I see that for many other customers) is very important to have a solution with the IP video cameras with support of RTSP and H.264. It would be great a module or a new component to do that. Thank you.

We need the ability to issue SQL Queries across the Gateway network against the data sources on the remote sever. Something like system.db.RunRemoteQuery('GatewayNodeId',Query,database='MyDB') I have this working now utilizing gatewway messaging but it is quite hacky and unsupported.

It would be nice to prevent a report schedule from executing and restart it at will via a simple script. I have certain projects where the report normally needs to go out but other times the production line is shut down and there is no automated way to disable the report until the line starts back up.

Added functionality to send tag providers, database connections, images, user roles,etc. using the agent task.

It would be really helpful to have shared Data Types between gateway platforms in Ignition Scale-Out Architecture. for example, if we have Pump UDT we could make an instance either on local tags folder or remote tag providers.
