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.

there is no option to edit a chart directly from canvas. you have to open the time series in charts. Save as a new name and then reopen canvas and manually add the new chart. It should be possible to edit the chart directly from canvas, save and then update the canvas.

There is no option to hide connecting lines in canvas between documents. This can lead to overcrowded canvas layout and difficult to see what lines is connected where. Recommend to make an option to hide individual lines to ensure a better visual layout.

It should be possible to enlarge windows in canvas in vertical direction

Recently a change was implemented to make the connection lines between documents on a Canvas to be orthagonal and to combine and flow between documents.There are some Canvases where I would like to be able to see a direct straight line connection between my references to quickly locate interconnectivity.My product idea:  add a toggle to allow me to choose between orthagonal connectors or straight line direct connector.

Currently, the PI-AF Extractor works as a forward synchronization tool that reads the PI-AF structure and sends it to Cognite Data Fusion (CDF).The extractor correctly handles: Insertions: New elements created in PI-AF are detected and created in CDF. Modifications: Updates to elements or attributes (such as renaming elements or moving branches) are synchronized and reflected in CDF. However, when elements or branches are deleted in PI-AF, the corresponding objects remain in CDF, and there is no indicator that the element no longer exists in the source system. This behavior is currently intentional to prevent accidental or irreversible data loss in CDF.While this approach protects data in CDF, it creates challenges for downstream processes. Without any indication that an object was deleted in the source system, it becomes difficult to automate workflows that depend on identifying obsolete or removed elements.Requested capabilityA mechanism to identify when an element has been deleted

As per the 3D Config feature, it should be good to have a Canvas Config option to configure the colouring for a quick highlight of the contextualization results in a Canvas for P&ID or any “plan” documents like isometrics loaded in a Canvas.In the configuration option we should be able to select attributes/data linked to the OCR captures, then in Canvas we should have a button to select and highlight all the OCR captures contextualized to PI-Tags, 3D tags, WOrkorders, SECE equipments…This option is of importance, it will avoid to check one by one each equipment in a P&ID, it will accelerate the completion of the contextualizations workflows, but not only… it’s also of importance for operations when preparing an intervention.

Currently, the Japanese translation for the operator used to perform exponentiation in Charts is shown as 「電源」, but this makes it difficult to understand at a glance what the function actually does.Would it be possible to correct this to a more appropriate translation? It’s a minor detail, but since this is a function that is used fairly often, I would really appreciate it if you could consider reviewing the translation.

In Charts, it’s possible to freely configure the units for each time series.However, I’m having trouble when trying to merge a manually set unit with the default unit.For example, in the screenshot, the upper time series is a calculated value added using “Create calculation.” I manually set its unit to “°C,” and attempted to merge it with the lower time series using “Merge unit.”But Charts recognizes them as different units, so the merge doesn’t work properly. To work around this, I have to manually reassign the unit “°C” to the lower time series—even though it already has the correct unit. This is quite time-consuming.If I'm doing something wrong, I would really appreciate it if you could point it out.If this behavior is actually by design, I hope it can be improved in the future.

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 manipulating the chart, like zooming/translating, or just moving the pointer to the chart are such that the slider appears, or select/unselect the browser, it triggers a refresh of the data in the “Explore and select your data” window. If you have zoomed in on a file, or searched and filtered on properties, everything gets reset. It seems unnecessary to refresh the data on the “Explore and select your data” window every time I touch the chart, and it makes it impossible to move back and forth when investigating a P&ID

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”. 

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

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
