Notable improvements were also made to the Visual Control Area (VCA), consisting of all its modules:
- VCA Engine and the visualizer modules at all (UI.VCAEngine):
- allows to carry out a full-hot development, that is — editing the VCA project at the time of its execution by sessions;
- the original interface messages are fully corrected, grammatically and spelling correct for the English language;
- provided a number of additional types of the primitive "Form elements", "Diagram" and extended the primitive "HTML" by "HTML" displaying;
- the mechanism of the widget specific attributes to the visualizer was provided, which allowed to reveal and use their individual properties;
- new-flexible mechanism of user notification about extraordinary events in the process controlled by the system, which provides the possibility of free formation of custom announcers with the necessary properties, such as: mono-tone signal, synthesis of speech.
- Visualizer-Qt (UI.Vision):
- noticeably improved performance of execution the remote interfaces and it is ensured for queries to the remote station in a separate thread from the Qt one, which facilitated remote development with parallel execution of the project;
- forming the primitive "Document" can be performed at help WebKit.
- Visualizer-WEB (UI.WebVision):
- unified, optimized and expanded by using CSS3;
- provides the implementation for all elements-primitives of the unified interface;
- performs the scaling to allowed space of the browser window;
- increased for the working productivity and the interface sensibility, through using only the asynchronous mechanism at updating.
