Hi folks! The Design Team would greatly appreciate your feedback on our latest explorations for a new Perspective Symbol Component, the **Fan**. Below are the work-in-progress visualizations of the Fan symbol component with various properties per `appearance` styles: ![fan-symbol-component](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/d/a/dab627657dfdc8a027682f932f46229f765fb110.png) Here are a few specific areas of feedback we are hoping to gather information on: - Are there other property variants that you would find more useful than what we’re showing here? - Are there specific styles or rules used by your company or industry when depicting fans that we should know about? - Do you use fan symbols in your HMIs now? If so, please share your screenshots below so we can better understand the context. Thanks for your time! ---

@hpark I came across this post because I am now looking for a good symbol to use for “big-ass-fans” which we control with a bacnet connection in large warehouses. > **[Ceiling Fans and Mobile and Wall-mounted Fans for Industry and Home](https://www.bigassfans.com/fans/#filter=.overhead-fans)** > > From Industrial to Commercial to Residential, Big Ass Fans® has a fan to help save money in your space year round.

Curious what that status of new perspective symbols is. I recently re-watched the intro video about perspective symbols, and the comment was made that more symbols would be added in the coming months. It has been almost a year since the first 8.1rc release, but we still only have the original five symbols. Are more symbols still planned, or has this effort been abandoned. ---

Not abandoned, just on the backburner in favor of other efforts. ---

Fan Symbol will be very helpful for HVAC applications ---

I’ll like to have the option to do the color selection of states. I know there’s a lot of literature behind this and the High Performance HMI and all, but there are still customers that would prefer a soft green instead of a pure white. This would apply not only for the fan, but for all Perspective P&ID components. A property that would be cool to have is a reverse blade rotation without having to use orientation (left/right) property. ---

I would like to voice my desire for this to be implemented. Even without any modifications to the w.i.p. visualizations, this would be perfect for our application - cooling tower fans. Has this made it any closer to the front burner since last discussed 2 years ago? ---

Hi there! Is there any update on this one? It would be great to use it in an HVAC application as well
