Global Area Settings

A user makes work areas. Currently the same work areas are shared for all modules.

It is my understanding that work areas will increase to be by module.

Regardless:

  • please add a toggle switch in each work area settings page defaulted on to global settings.
  • Then please add a global area settings page so for example:
  • Example 1: you can choose 3.5” high cutting for m1 and it configures all work areas that are toggle on for global.
  • Example 2: some firmware update comes out and now moderate bypass is acting odd. Let me go into global settings once and make all toggle on work areas change to gentle contact
  • Example 3: checkboard not working out. Well I don’t need to go to each work area anymore. Just go to global and change them all to diamond from one place.

Could do the same for pathways and no gos.

I worked on a product long ago that had “Apply” and “Global Apply” options. I am going to raise my cutting height eventually and see a “Global Apply” as useful so my mapped items of a particular type (Areas, Deadends, or Pathways) get the bump. Or select the mapped items you want changed from a list and apply the change to those.

I think I have something approaching 30 Areas and approaching a dozen Deadends. So, yeah.
