Some Ideas

#1 by Mr.T , Tue Dec 03, 2024 9:36 am

I propose some ideas:
1. It often happens to me when I do remote assist, that I have to connect to a robot to download the online version and I always have to: connect, it backs up, and then download the data again to see the project and work on it. You could request upon connecting on a robot, if and it is backed up dasi and there are no files open, request whether to open the backup file in read only, without having to re-download the contents of the robot.
2. When I am connected via WiFi or when there are project files that kide can't read, there is a timeout at startup of about 60s if it can be reduced;
3. window to set/read dedicated signals;
[Hard]4. When I have to create documentation for the robot they require me to explain the pages of the IFP and I have to take screenshots of each page and go through Word to explain each button what it does. Can you automate this, like Siemens' TIA Portal does that creates a screen and assigns a little number to each box used and then going through Word create enter the description of what the button does?

Dear @Mr.T ,

thank you for sharing your ideas!

  1. That is a good idea and it is not too much work to add this.
  2. I don't understand that! Can you please explain in detail?
  3. I understand that documentation is a very important task, but I don't think I will ever include MS Word handling into K-IDE. That will lead to too much dependencies on libraries and components.

when I am connected to a wifi network without an internet connection, when I start “kide” I cannot click any buttons on the interface until a timeout expires.
Or it happened to me that I had included in the project view, some files that were on the local server and I also had the same problem on the eth

what if you could generate just the page images with just the attvi fields and a small number and then go to html or pdf?
With these formats you could then edit by adding details with any editor.

Only if this option, is feasible to write and doesn't drive you crazy and then used by others in the community.
