Hi

Are you planning to do some kind of cloning (it would be probably only a web
interface feature) - you select item/trigger, push clone button, change a bit
name and parameter and save it as a new item/trigger?

Second thing - grouping items? When you see server view, there is (for example
of course) /dev/sda item. When it's clicked/unfolded you can see bytes/s
written, bytes/s read, read operations/s etc. etc (and of course ability to
clone such a group ;))

I'm just asking if it's planed since 1.4 description is not enought detailed to
know that :)

Regards

The "Clone" button is already implemented in 1.3.3. Not sure about second feature, are you thinking of a way of cloning all items of an application?

Hi,

With "grouping" i'm thinking about ability (like in email clients for example) to do tree style folding/unfolding of groups of items.
example:
| disk partition hda1
+-> read bytes/s
+-> write bytes/s
+-> total partition size
+-> free partition space
+-> used partition space

this whould clean up interface a lot, and (what is more importat) ability to clone/edit such a group would be a great stuff. You could just clone it, change hda1 to hda2 and all depending items would also change to hda2 :)

Cheers..

The grouping is already supported. Link some of your items to applications to see what I mean.
