Hello all,

Ever since I started working on CSS I had a question in mind, when you

develop a system on CSS why there is no single application produced that

you run and view the panels you designed? Opening a new CSS panel even

in compact mode creates new instance of CSS entirely (or at least that

is what I noticed) which affects system's performance especially when

you fill your screen with panels to monitor your facility.

An good alternative to this from my experience is EPICS Qt, I managed to

use it with Qt Creator and I can create a single binary which contains

all the control system's screen you want. In my opinion adding such a

feature in future releases of CSS along with its simplicity and easiness

of development would make it a great choice for control systems development.

Best Regards,

Abdalla.
