Re: [foxboro] Why are you staying with the DM? (was: 'Group' Visibili ty with DM)

Guys,
I can tell you what we have run into within our company.
Operators do not like to give up the inch or so of the screen that the icon
buttons take up. Those operators who have never seen DM think that the
buttons are great.
I am adopting the stance as we replace aging equipment and upgrade systems
that DM is no longer available.
Thanks

All,

John Smith's question raises another one. Why do our users stay with the
DM?

We are interested in what would help people move off of the DM and to FV
and
I want to "hear" the reasons from a few users.

So, drop me a line on or off the list and let me know what the biggest
barriers are to moving from the DM to FV.

Thanks and regards,

Subject: [foxboro] 'Group' Visibility with DM

I've got a graphic where certain pieces of equipment need to 'disappear'
when they are not being used and other pieces of equipment need to appear
in
their places when being used.  This would have been a piece of cake in
Foxview but I can't think of a good way to make it happen with Display
Manager.  I really don't want to set visibility on each line, arc,
rectangle, etc. if I don't have to.
Anybody got a better idea?

Thanks!
