Voting ballot for WinCC Flexible improvements:

Take your time to read the rules !


>>>>>> Rules <<<<<<

Allowed votes are 0-1-2-3-4-5-N
"0" = You do not consider this entry important at all.
"5" = You consider this entry critically important to you.
"1" - "2" - "3" - "4" = Ratings between "not important at all" and "critically important".
"N" = Not relevant at all. There is no reason or sense to this entry. This entry should not have been in the list.

Notice the difference:
"0" means that you consider the entry unimportant to YOU only. Maybe it is important to others.
"N" means that you consider the entry irrelevant.

You have 20 (twenty) points that you are free to place everywhere in the entry list as you see fit.
You can give 4 entries 5 points each, or you can give 20 entries 1 point each, or you can use whatever combination you like.
You do not have to use all 20 points that is available to you. You can give 1 entry 1 point only if you like.
I will check that you have not spent more points than what is allowed.
I will check that only "0", "1", "2", "3", "4", "5" or "N" are used.
If there is a problem with a vote, I will PM the voter to allow him to correct his ballot.

Copy the "voting list" below and paste it into a text document. Then add you vote points where I have placed an underscore ("_"). Exchange the underscore for your vote.
I recommend that you do the editing offline so that you have the time to check your editing.
You do not have to replace the underscores with zero's.
Copy your filled-in ballot into a new post in this thread. THAT IS YOUR VOTE !
You can only vote once (duh !).
Only members are allowed to vote.
Voting is open until Friday March 9 (all of that day included).

Important:
Only post the filled out voting ballot.
DO NOT COMMENT YOUR OWN OR OTHER MEMBERS VOTES. You can do that after March 9.

Tips:

Wrap LADDER tags (from the editing menu) around the entrire list. That will keep the list more readable, and my job of assembling all the votes easier.

Use the Preview function before posting.

Notice Notice.

What shouldnt happen, happened.

Entry # 23. "Allow text lists to have multiple lines (i.e with CR)" should be ignored !
I have removed it from the PDF file, but forgot to remove it from the voting list.
Sorry sorry sorry :oops: .

Thanks to Jobbe for pointing me to this error.

The background is that Siemens has actually gone and added this functionality with HF7 that was released recently.

The voting list and the PDF file has come out of sync, numbering-wise, but I think you can figure it out anyway from the descriptions. Please simply do not consider entry 23 at all.
Panic mode and CharlesM, please feel free to go and repost your votes.
