More ‘native’ scheme editor

[kumajaya]

For better integration to ScadaAdmin, how about scheme editor inside WinForms using CEFSharp? https://cefsharp.github.io/

Scheme Editor is a complex application, that is why is is not planned to make it an extension for the Administrator app as Table Editor.
In the future, it is possible to choose a one of the following approaches for Scheme Editor:
1. Make it a separate WinForms app that wraps web browser.
2. Make it a web app.

Totally agree. Too fat Administrator also not good.

I think Make it a web app is good

A web app seems like the better option due to being cross-platform. However, implementation of property editor is tricky.

I still like the native administrator, its working and effective enough.
I think it should focus on efficiency, not visual excitement.

The web approach needs careful planning and good looking and efficient UX design is science. Btw, sophisticated web apps are not small, neither is browser. My complain is that current administrator doesn’t work on Linux natively.

As to the designer, I also think web app seems the right way to go, since web apps seems to have proved to be strong in graphical excellence…

Agree with that. @kumajaya runs ScadaAdmin on Linux using Wine.
Thank you for the feedback.

For SCADA 6 I have to create two different scheme components for SCADA 6 runtime and SCADA 5 scheme editor 😭

[Mikhail]

Could you explain?
