vCortex — AI Guide for Building Ignition Perspective Views
Hi everyone,
I’ve published an AI guide for vCortex to help developers work with AI assistants when building Ignition Perspective views using vCortex components.
The guide covers component properties, methods, events, configuration patterns, and scripting examples. It provides a reference for the module’s supported interfaces, helping AI assistants suggest more relevant configurations and scripts.
You can find the introduction, usage notes, and download here:
vCortex AI Guide — Documentation and Download
To get started, download the ZIP, extract vCortex-AI-Guide.md, and attach the Markdown file to your AI conversation. Then describe the view, functionality, or interaction you want to build.
I’ll post some practical examples here as soon as I get the chance.
Please review and test AI-generated configurations and scripts in a development project before deployment.
Feedback is welcome—especially suggestions for examples or workflows you’d like to see covered.

I'm sorry but why do I have a cloudflare verification process asking me to run a command in the CMD in Windows when getting to that page ?...
No way I'm doing that.

Thank you for flagging this, Samuel. You were right not to run the command—that is not part of our website’s verification process.
Our technical team has addressed the reported issue and completed follow-up checks, with no recurrence observed.
We appreciate your feedback. If you notice anything unusual again, please let us know so we can investigate promptly.
Hi everyone,
As promised, here’s a practical follow-up to the vCortex AI Guide: an AI-assisted Flow Editor built as an Ignition Perspective view.
The most interesting feature is using real Perspective views as diagram nodes, with their own parameters and bindings—so existing equipment views can become part of an editable process diagram.
The editor supports:
- Editing nodes, named handles, and connections directly in the browser.
- Simple everyday controls, with detailed settings under Advanced.
- Saving layouts as reusable project views.
AI helped build and refine the editing panel and scripts. Diagram rendering uses the vCortex Flow Diagram component.

The example requires Perspective and vCortex. Please try it in a development project first.
Feedback on the editing workflow, and suggestions for the next practical example, are welcome!
