Vision Library+ v2.2:
Custom visualizations, SQL filters and asset analytics

Vision Library+ 2.2 adds six symbols, among them Custom Visualization+, which runs a visualization that you or an AI write on live PI data. Event frames can keep a change log, the analytics symbols show the data behind their numbers, and data-entry saves report their result per value.

Product: Vision Library+ for AVEVA PI Vision Release: 2.2.0 Date: November 5, 2026

The release also brings SQL Filter+ and three asset symbols, renames AF Table+ to SQL Table+ and includes the 2026 time zone rules for Canada and Morocco. If you are upgrading, read What changes when you upgrade first.

New symbols

Custom Visualization+

Runs a visualization that you write, or let an AI write, as one HTML document on the symbol's live PI data.

• Code editor with a live preview; the output console names the failing line, and nothing changes until you apply.
• Copy AI prompt gives an AI everything it needs, including the symbol's data sources; Copy error report hands errors back for a fix.
• Code in an AF attribute, optionally relative to the display asset, so one document serves many displays.
• Isolated: the code cannot reach the network, PI Web API or the PI Vision page.

Custom SQL Visualization+

Does the same on live PI data and the rows of AF tables, for example a live depth against a table of planned points.

• Up to five AF tables per symbol, each read by a name you choose, so a table can change without changing the code.
• Copy AI prompt includes each table's name and columns, with sample rows if you want them.
• SQL Filter+ selections filter a table's rows automatically; Ignore Master keeps every row to show selected against total.

SQL Filter+

Filters the rows of an AF table, linked to a SQL database or static, and filters other symbols from them.

• List or tree over any column of the table, with search and single or multiple selection.
• Numeric ranges instead of every distinct number.
• Linked channels drive event, asset and other symbols from a table value.

Asset Analytics Chart+

Turns a set of AF assets into a bar, line, area or scatter chart, on the same chart as Event Analytics Chart+.

• Count, total or average an attribute per asset or category, from Count to Standard Deviation.
• Split by a second attribute, side by side or stacked, with Top N, an Others bar and a Pareto line.
• Click a bar to drill down or to filter other asset symbols.
• It charts each asset's current value and does not aggregate over the display time range.

Asset Analytics Pie+

Shows the same asset rows as a pie or donut, on the same chart as Event Analytics Pie+.

• Count or total an attribute per mode, template or asset, labeled with names, values or percentages.
• One pie per category of a second attribute, with Top N and an Others slice.
• Click a slice to drill down or to filter other asset symbols.

Asset State Timeline+

Draws one row per asset with continuous bars colored by digital state, from recorded history on one time scale.

• Rows follow a dynamic search, Asset Filter+ and Linked filters.
• Time in state: a column per state with its share of the time; click a header to sort.
• One color per state name on every row.
• Click a row to set the display's asset or to open another display with that asset.

New features

Event frames and analytics

• Change Tracking in Event Frame Form+ and Events Table+ logs every saved edit as an annotation on the event frame, with old and new values and an optional or required reason.
• Inspect Data shows a Summary of the numbers as shown and the Rows behind them, with CSV, XLSX and JSON export, from a new analytics toolbar.
• Duration in Range: new event properties that count only the time inside the symbol's range, optionally with overlapping events merged per asset.

Tables

• SQL Table+ follows SQL Filter+ and linked filters, with a filter chip and the row count; Save still writes every row.
• SQL symbols on one AF table share their reads instead of reading the table once each.

Data entry

• One result per value in Manual Data Entry+, Manual Input Table+, Manual Input Form+, Quick Input+ and Asset Comparison Table+, naming any source without write permission.
• A partial save keeps only what failed in Manual Data Entry+, Manual Input Table+ and Asset Comparison Table+, so saving again posts only the rest.

Charts

• Fullscreen and SVG downloads keep their colors; fullscreen text and toolbar follow the PI Vision theme.
• Combo Chart+: Scale Range Database uses the AF Minimum and Maximum limit traits, as PI Vision does.

Time zones

• 2026 time zone rules: with a PI Vision time zone override, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Northwest Territories, Morocco and Western Sahara follow their new permanent offsets.
• Clock changes: data-entry rows on a skipped clock time now save.

Fixes

• Live charts: one unavailable source no longer makes a Recorded or Interpolated chart reload everything; the others keep updating.
• Asset Time Series Chart+: a display asset switch loads the new asset at once instead of leaving the chart empty.
• SQL Table+: the delete button removes only the rows you chose, never the first row by mistake.
• SQL Table+: with Convert To Local Time on, a save no longer moves DateTime values by the server's UTC offset.
• SQL Table+ and SQL Filter+: after an asset change to another table, another asset's rows are never shown as this one's.
• Events Table+: turning on Event Hierarchy no longer changes element attribute values.
• Many smaller fixes across charts, tables, data entry and event symbols, plus the fixes already delivered in 2.1.1.

What changes when you upgrade

Saved displays are not rewritten and keep rendering. You may notice these changes:

• AF Table+ is now SQL Table+, with a new icon; saved displays keep their settings and behavior.
• Data-entry saves are all or nothing: one invalid value now refuses the whole save instead of being posted.
• Analytics grouped by a Boolean: rows without a value form their own "No Data" category, so False counts can drop.
• Time Series Table+ totals: Multiple averages can change, and an Average with no numeric cell is blank instead of 0.
• Change Tracking and Set Questionable flag stay off until you turn them on.

For administrators

• Copy the new frames folder on every installation and upgrade; Custom Visualization+ and Custom SQL Visualization+ need it.
• Start from the new config.js and merge your site values into it.
• Canadian time zone overrides: use the new British Columbia, Alberta or Manitoba Standard Time names or a UTC offset; the older names keep US rules.
