To be able to edit the custom column added in the All devices page of Device Management

Currently when a user adds any custom column using "header" and "fragement_path" in the All devices page, it is found that those columns are non-editable and can only be deleted. Also the user is not able to view what values were entered for 'header' and 'fragment_path' for that column once after its creation. This prevents from undertanding the column later.

Suggestion:

  • To make custom columns viewable and editable after its creation

  • To have some pre-populated values for header and fragmenPath fields

As creating custom columns is pretty much a necessity for a user, the above features are extremely helpful in the usability of custom columns feature.

    Hi Mohammed,

    We are already planning to use the properties library in the Digital Twin Manager application to predefine custom columns (header / fragment path combinations), allowing users to either select these predefined ones or create own ones, which would at least cover your first point. Automatically updating it would make it significantly more difficult to implement, which is why I can’t guarantee that your second point will be covered as well. However, setting up the column again would at least be way easier.
