Is it possible to edit a View SE GFX screen with VBA? I’m using VBA to move some objects on the screen in runtime and save their position into tags that are then read to retain the new position. It would be great if I could just save those new positions into the screens View SE file.
 
Never tried, but I can just about guarantee that you can't directly edit the .gfx file(s) to any good result. Even if you did, it wouldn't flush the cache in the FTView server.
