Hey maybe on your next Direct Soft update you could give us some way to use our rung comments as a bookmarks to different parts of the program. So you could pick from a tabbed list or something and have it fire a go to rung command!! It would be sooooo nice for large programs. I'm wondering what others think about this???
Thanks
Will

Can't say.  We're quite a number of months to BETA, then a few MORE months to PRODUCTION.  We can't really say anyway until it is shipping.  So when you find out WHEN, you will actually be able to GET IT  ;D!

This would be a great help. I have several plc with over 500 rungs and i am constantly changing to fit production . So it can be easy to get lost

 I certainly agree with all this. Some type of a search feature or the ability to break the program down into different pages.

The way that i wish it would be done would to have the ability to jump to rung comments from a tabbed list. I would like to have some the ability to have some main Rung comments or something. Got any ideas anyone how it would be nice

In addition to improving the Rung Comments lookup and jump to feature I would also like to request that DirectSOFT have the added feature of looking up the Nickname by any portion of the Nickname... showing all matching Nicknames ( something like B-trieve DB) other PLC programs that I use do this and it is soooooooo helpful when you work on large programs!!

I strongly agree! That would be a huge improvement.
