MQTT Username/Password Obfuscation
I would like to see the obfuscation of the password field in the MQTT broker password field.

We can do this for all the password fields in the System Configuration dialog boxes.  Not sure if it is helpful to do it for the user name?  That could create a lot of frustration for most customers when it's not working.  People understand hiding the password field contents - that's probably enough?

Yes, the password field would be sufficient, and I understand leaving the username as it is trivial.
Thank you for the consideration!

Any chance we'll get structured text capability in Do-More?
I see that Productivity just got that. I use Do-More/BRX for almost every project, and prefer to keep it that way. But being able to mix and match the existing ladder logic with ST, in different programs and tasks, would be a really useful feature.

  • Local variables associated with code blocks and just more name-spacey things in general
  • Library support.   TIA portal has a pretty extensive library functionality; you can store almost anything in there, code blocks, configured hardware, entire PLC racks, it's pretty open
  • More conventional implementation of SFC
  • User symbolic boolean constants
  • Add day and date to time display on trends.   I often do trends that span several days.  Right now I have to click a snapshot which includes the date
  • My partner will say FBD but don't listen to him
  • He also feels like the Simulator could be stronger, I can't figure out what he means.
I retract my earlier statement that half of all politicians are crooks.  Half of all politicians are NOT crooks.  There.
