My issues with intouch deal more with the licensing and maintaining apps across the versions. Being an OEM I have to support Intouch 5.6, 7.0, and 7.11 apps. Now, I have to have 3, count em, 3 different PCs to work on, cause you cant have 2 different versions on the same machine (How f'ing ignorant is that?!?!). I have to develop in the RES the app runs in. Ever try supporting an older app in 640 x 480. It gives me a whole 300 x 200 to work with! And. I just LOVE having to change my screen res 400 times a day. You cant open multiple instances of intouch, and, thus, you cant do any cut and paste between apps. Now, they have 8.0, so now I need 4!!! machines (actually, yet another partition) to work on. Ever open an app in the wrong version or res, better not covert it. Older apps arent compatible with newer versions without coversion. Or how about that bug so whenever you click on anything it moves it a pixel or two. Thats been there thu three versions. Or how about the double apprearing script bug. Dont hit ok on that second screen or its crash city...
I could go on, but im getting angry again. So, like I said, its not that wonderware doesnt do a decent job as an HMI...
