mimic diagram

[kjakan]

Hi Mikhail,

I’m working with the new mimic diagrams (6.4.x beta) and would like to suggest a feature for a future release.

Use case: an analog pointer/needle (e.g. a gauge indicator) where the rotation angle should follow the value of an input channel in real time — for example, angle = value * scale + offset.

The Appearance section already exposes a Rotation property, but as far as I can see it can only be set to a static value at design time. It would be very useful if Rotation (and ideally other Appearance properties) could be bound to an input channel, similar to how text/visibility can be data-driven, preferably with a simple linear transform (scale + offset) or a small expression.

Is this already on the roadmap for the new mimic engine? If not, please consider it as a feature request.

Thanks for the great work on Rapid SCADA.
