Access to SchemeEditor sourcecode ?

[Yannick]

Hi and thanks to the team for the job.
I’m currently trying RapidScada for a project. It’s very promising but some feature don’t totally fit our needs.
I’d like to make some changes in the Scheme Editor but can’t find its sources, have they been released to github ?
Thanks

Hi,
Scheme Editor is in the ScadaScheme solution.

By the way, what changes are you going to make?

Hi thanks for the link, I’ve been searching “scheme” yesterday in the github repo but it did not give any result, I must have done something wrong.

My customer is currently evaluating RapidSCADA and thus would be interested in several features, so he needs a time/cost evaluation for several “production” features.

Some features are probable editor-only :
* Being able to add basic graphic elements : lines, circles, squares …
* More controls on elements display : padding, borders, background colors, round corners
* Free HTML blocks, to display some text, links & images
* Select multiple elements at ones (like, a drag & select)
* Group and ungroup elements, name groups
* Tree listing of the available elements, with ability so select from the tree off course
* Create a library of elements and be able to include an element in a scheme using this library (like, there is a toolbar I want to use in all my schemes)

Some would probably be cross development with other modules :
* The ability to define a detailed view for an element, for instance double-click on element to display a popin with informations regarding this element
* To implment this, one logical way would be : double-click element to display a popin containing another scheme (iframed maybe), and thus being able to specify a scheme to open when click on an element (Behaviour > Action > Open scheme in popin)
* Easy input/output select : clicking on a (…) button popsup a tree of inputs/outputs, because when considering 1000+ entries, keeping track of the inputs/output register values gets complicated

Is there a RapidSCADA developper based in western europe ?
Thanks

Hi,

The described features would be quite useful, definitely. Many of them are contained in our back log. General direction of improvements is making scheme editing faster.

Some features are already exist, at least partially:
> Select multiple elements at ones
Hold Ctrl and click elements.

> The ability to define a detailed view for an element, for instance double-click on element to display a popin with informations regarding this element
Link component allows to show a popup. Note: double click is not common in web interface.

Our team is located in Voronezh, Russia. Rapid SCADA community is around the world.

This year we plan to release Rapid SCADA 6 with the existing scheme engine. The 6th version simplifies project configuring and data archiving.
Next year it would be nice to significantly redesign schemes to add new features.
We would be glad to cooperate.

Hello and thank you for the feedback.
I’d be interested to know the development time estimation for some features if you already have them in your backlog, like :
* Being able to draw graphic elements : lines, circles, squares etc. and use them as dynamic elements
* Being able to create and manage named groups of elements, for instance : several static texts, some dynamic texts, some dynamic images etc grouped together. Bonus feature would be to be able to manage input/output settings centralised on a “group panel”
* Being able to open a popin containing a view, I mean not in another tab or windows, but a popil like the Command popin. Changes probably required in the scheme and in the Web server.

If the customer is willing to pay for these developments (and more) is there a way to accelerate the schedule ?

Hello,

Could you contact us by email info@… ?
I would like ask some follow up questions by email.
Thank you.

Hello, I have been very excited about this thread, is there any news about it?
this at the same time has given me an idea that you want the community to support.
Estimate costs of improvements or addition of functions.
Publish them on a site where one can donate in order to reach the cost of the project (some crowdfunding site) and thus accelerate its development with that financial aid.

[Mikhail]

Hello,
This is an interesting idea. I’ve heard about such mechanism. However, currently it’s not clear for me how to manage donates. May be there is a special website that provides the described functionality?

Here a two places in Russia Crowdfunding
or information about it.
I hope this takes place.
I also recommend you to enable donations in GitGub.
Greetings.

Thank you.
I deleted the 2nd link, because it was a website for buying diplomas instead of studying.

I also recommend you to enable donations in GitGub.

Yes, you right. I will enable this GitHub feature as soon as it becomes available in Russia. List of regions is here.
