The new interface is great as it is easy visually to see the picture and then the function right next to the picture. (ie the group address and function)

The problem is (also same in old version) is that we all don't mount the switches vertically. Some customers like them horizontal. Some like the LED at the top some like the LED at the bottom. (talking about the series 2000 gangs)

What would be great is if the rotation of each switch was stored in the database and then the graphic was rotated appropriately (with the functions).

Would make it much easier to visualise and you would not have to rotate you head to work out which button you need to program.

I understand is would be a lot of programming work and there a probably better things to spend programming time on.

We did actually intend to add this feature quite early on, then it got harder and harder and we canned it. :-) Sorry.

I'll re-log the request, no promises.. thanks for the other positive feedback.
