Extend project preferences to make development quicker and more consistent

2

Improvement 1: At the creation of a new microflow check against project preferences and compare if the microflow contains naming conventions
This can help to default set the microflow security or in case of before startup / shutdown having to configure a single microflow that calls all of them.

IVK_ , by security standard anything invoked from the interface should apply entity access

SUB_, by default disable security acccess

BSu_, by default combine these into startup flow

BSd_, by default combine these into shutdown flow

 

Improvement 2: Define shortcuts for creating default desktop page / tablet page / mobile page, allow for setting default layout for these pages and a template "default to blank".
 

Ctrl+P Create page under current selected item in modules

Ctrl+M Create microflow under current selected item in modules

or if folder is selected create inside the folder by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P or Ctrl+Shift+M
 

Improvement 3: Create new item in Modules called "log nodes" next to domain and security 
Check for all different log nodes and automatically trigger them so they become available from server settings.
Allow for default settings for each log node on start-up
Currently log nodes aren't even configurable if they are not triggered.

Being a lazy developer, I love this idea. The more the Modeler does for us, the better I like it.

 

Btw. IVK_ or ACT_: IVK is the historical prefix. ACT_ replaced it probably because it's a better match to ActionButton.
