For classic data model, the UI can roll up timeseries from all children, which is a very useful function allowing you to reduce the amount of traversing to find all relevant timeseries. This functionality seems to be missing for data modelling. Is this functionality missing, or is it a particular requirement to the data model that we have not met in our model?It would be good to either document ​​​​​​better how to make this happen with data modelling, or reintroduce it if it is missing.  

Now, when selecting the stacking function in Charts, all the selected timeseries are combined in the same Y-axis. See attached picture. It is reported by the SMEs that this UI is very messy and hard to read properly. Suggestion to improve this would be a feature where the user can select if he/she want to stack the Y-axes separately (see picture). This would help with better readability of the data in the chart. 

The File category view is very useful, allowing you to quickly filter on the right files. But some file categories are more important than others, especially the P&IDs. It would be good to be able to configure the order of the file categories in that list, allowing us to eg “pin” the P&ID category on the top 

there's an unnecessary amount of filtering options under search. I guess its okay to show the options available, but for several tags there are multiple filters without any hits - why are these shown? The number of filters is already many, some of them with descriptions not too accurate (but I guess they are for some people...)  This is mainly for trying to remove some noise from the filtering functions.   An explanatory information document for the filter options would also be nice. many people who will be trying to filter will really struggle to know what to filter on.Can hide properties from filter if none of the values are populated.

When selecting an instance in Search, the Overview tab is very useful (seeing more than one data category without having to switch view). The challenge today is that the tiles have pre-defined columns, and they do not allow for filtering. It is of course possible to go into the “full screen mode” for each category, like Activities, but then you loose the possibility of seeing data from more categories in context.It would be very useful to be able to configure the properties we see in each tile and to filter on properties, like we can do in the “full screen mode”. 

With the data modelling framework, most models will end up with a significant number of Views. Today we are not able to control the order the Views are presented in a good way. By reverse engineering it seems like the order of the Views is based on The order of the (first mentioned) CDM extension in the model definition. Alle non-CDM Views are listed at the end, irrespectively whether it is listed before CDM or not  What is considered a CDM extension by the UI is not based on the implements, but whether it reference at least one property from one of the CDM containers Inside each Category (eg, a specific CDM extension, or the non-CDM Views), the order in the model definition dictates the orderIf I choose alphabetic sorting it seems to only affect the non-CDM-Views, and not the order inside each CDM category. It do however put all the CDM categories first or last It is very inconvenient to use the order of appearance in the model definition as the way of sorting (we have to sort both th

When selecting an instance in Search, the Overview tab is very useful (seeing more than one data category without having to switch view). However, the tiles are static and cannot be resized. Resizing would allow the user to see more of the data in one category while still see the other data categories (eg I want to see more of the properties from the Asset while still seeing the list of workorders.For the same reason we would like to be able to change the order of the tiles, eg moving the workorder tile up next to the properties tile, to better focus on the things we want to see.The same behavior is also relevant when searching for data via Charts and Canvas

Now it's challenging to find the correct timeseries, especially for OPCUA, where we have many service signals. It would be good to have a way of prioritizing it in all the UIs, including Canvas and Search. Could be a flag in the timeseries properties or any other way.  

When selecting the property that will be used for the x-axis in the graph, the list is not searchable. For more complex Views the list of properties can be long (100+), which makes a non-searchable non-sorted list relatively hard to work with 

Today the CogniteUnit is not shown under the Properties in Search. It is also not used in the timeseries Preview tab. It would be helpful to be able to search and filter on CogniteUnit, and do unit conversion in the timeseries Preview

The closest to that solution as for now would be adding a timeseries on the canvas, then you have an option to Open in charts and then choose a new one or existing one. This is too cumbersome.See picture below of suggested solution directly in canvas: 

If document names is "clickable" it connects to itself.  This makes it unorganised, especially if you want connection lines to other multiple other documents. A blocker should be in place to ensure that connection lines do not connect the document to itself. 

When you click on a comment in the comment panel you should be moved to wherever in that canvas the comment is located. Imagine yourself working in a huge canvas with your team, multiple comments, and you need to look through what not to find that exact comment box...  Should be both automatically moved to that comment, and also as a choice in the three dots "go to comments"

Should be able to change font size and colour within a sticky note. Also, why not be able to change the colour of the sticky note with HEX codes, and only restrict it to four colours?
