Sorry to hear that. As we try to write our CSS code into the `usr\local\bin\ignition\data\modules\com.inductiveautomation.perspective` directory and, it seems the docker doesn't get permission to do that. We will fix soon. ---

## vCortex 0.1.47 Released – Introducing the New **Flow Diagram** Component We’re excited to announce the release of **vCortex 0.1.47** , featuring a powerful new component: **Flow Diagram**. This component empowers developers and engineers to create **customizable, node-based flow diagrams** with full editing capabilities and interactive behavior—all within **Ignition Perspective**. [Direct Download](https://i4cortex.com/download/4296/?tmstv=1733860350&ebduid=6cda3bd385) The **Flow Diagram** component allows you to visually build logic, workflows, or systems using connected nodes. Each node: - Can display an **embedded view** (Perspective View), - Supports a **custom number of connection handles** (input/output), - Allows **interactive linking** between nodes. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/e/2/e246a4e24edbaf57bd431d0017fa70468fd599ce.jpeg) It’s designed to streamline building complex interactive diagrams that adapt to your specific use case. Here are just a few applications for this powerful new tool: 1. **Material Track and Trace Genealogy** 2. **ESD (Emergency Shutdown) Diagrams** 3. **Energy Flow Visualization** 4. **Interactive P&ID Editors** 5. **Logic Diagrams** (CFC/SFC) 6. **Recipe Management Tools** 7. **Automated Workflow Designers** 8. **Business Goals and KPI Tracking** ### Included: Demo Project (Playground) To make adoption easy, we’ve included a **demo project** (playground) alongside the module installation. This gives you hands-on examples and a complete working environment. For more information please refer to our manual in the designer: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/4/e/4e33fcde9d6c08e3acecc8627c4b436c9d497b6d.png) Here are some examples: **Realtime P&ID Editor:** - Draw P&ID base on predefine devices - Resizing the devices - Upload and download diagram - Search on devices on diagram ![P&ID Editor](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/1/1/116f7b314d443afd5276191818b662b1fb26aa77.gif) **Applying Layouting Algorithms** Applying different layouting algorithms on nodes when node are generated by code(coming from database) and don't have positions. A good example is Material Genealogy Diagram which lot events comes from database. ![Layouting](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/6/8/684409d78ef6075937cbb3133208cb3a51947d8e.gif) \*\*Node Collapse and Expanding ![Node Collapse Expand](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/1/c/1ccc670a6649c38f67a8976e30bdb6bc259e4a45.gif) \*\* ---

If you check the manual on system functions, you'll find a function called `system.i4cortex.gui.getViewObjects()`. This function accepts any view path as its first argument and returns a list of Perspective components on that view. You can also explore the Playground project, which is automatically installed on your gateway when the module is installed. It provides examples of how to use this function in practice. If you don't see this example please download the latest version of module. ---
