Thanks, my confusion was that it worked as I had expected in web, but not in native. I have been thrown more than once by not setting height to auto (-1). As you stated this will work the same in both presentation engines when the size and layout for the Vertical container are set to following. ...

@asemlucben, I would disagree, if you would kindly look at the demo project that was attached. There is a vertical layout item that is outside the field of view and the vertical scroll bar should appear like it does in the web browser. There is an anomaly. Web Native It should do this ...

Are you able to use an LDAP directory for authentication? I believe this has been discussed before and LDAP/Windows Domain (AD) will be the only way to have cross runtime security is to have a central security mechanism that Optix supports.

Not sure. Here is an example project and the ACD file for the connection. Just update the IP Address. The ACD file is under the ProjectFiles Directory. From the main interface you can try different tag paths by pasting in the text value of the path before running the command on the button. ...

@Lopez, hope this is the correct person as it looks like this handle is owned by multiple people. Anyway, have you worked more with InfluxDB 3.x and Optix? Do you have any performance suggestions you have learned and have you had a chance to test with Optix 1.7.x to see if there are any improvement ...

@CollinAnderson, here is an older thread where I tested some items for someone with InfluxDB 3.x and Optix V1.6.x. There were some issues back then and the person I was discussing with ended up using the NuGet InfluxDB 3.x client library (InfluxDB3.Client). There is no mention in the release notes ...

Unfortunately, Influx DB 3.x, if they are using windows, it will only run in a container. I'm not too excited about Docker Linux containers as you are subject to some limitations in WSL. If this is on windows someone needs to investigate the allowed resources configuration for WSL. It may be limited ...

Yes, do not use a dynamic link. Copy the tag path and paste the actual text of the tag path. Paste your string in the string variable, Ex.: /CommDrivers/RAEtherNet_IPDriver1/RAEtherNet_IPStation1/Tags/Controller Tags/ArrayX -------------------------------------------

"Is a NuGet library the recommended way to interface with the embedded databases?" No, only mentioned it because you never know what someone is doing. But if you have a critical feature and the built in DB functions are not going to get you there you might want to evaluate using "Microsoft.Data.Sqlite" ...

Technically the limitation is the implementation of the ODBC driver if you are going through the datastore object and not using a NuGet library for direct access to the SQLite DB. Optix has a limited ODBC implementation and is not quite what you would be used to on the PC side of things. In the ...

I looked through the KB and the Change Log in FT Hub. I see nothing specific to a performance problem with the Datalogger, Datastore or InfluxDB specifically between 1.6 and 1.7 Optix releases. If this is a test system, have you tried updating to the most current firmware for OptixPanel Standard ...

I seem to remember having this issue also. In the operations manual for customer I suggested they go to Windows Explorer and copy the path as text and past in a string variable I had in the configuration section of the Optix runtime application.
