    Guys,

    interested to know what the pipeline for programming improvements is?

    features I would like start with (and feel free to tell me they are there but I dont know about them!):
    - copy/paste between visualisations
    - multi select
    - align left,right, center, top, bottom, mid, etc ... save painstaickingly having to edit pixel refs #@###@
    - Text buttons ... why do I need to create a graphic for everything !#@!#! (snipping tool over PICED is not the best!)
    - and while I am at it .. the other 80% of PICED functionality that is not included !

    And what about a SQLITE schema reference ... can I manage this offline to do most of this work like I could in XML for toolkit and PICED?

    @daniel @Conformist there has to be a better way to do this ..... Ext JS can do a lot more ... but is also very limited .. you could also add in Kendo or a few others to help!

    Further to this ....

    Scenes ....

    In PICED I could set an indicator to the status of a scene ...

    In NAC/SHAC I appear to be only able to trigger a scene ...

    Seems like a lot of code to be able to monitor for a set scene and then update the UI ...

    Kewl stuff and I would like to do it ...but is the client going to pay me for the lines of code :(

    Maybe I could write a library to do this ... but is there a market place for such libraries?

    Is this deja vue from a conversation 10+ years ago !@#1! I hope not ....
