The user interface of the Graphics Builder is optimized for rapid engineering. It consists of several key panels:
Beside him stood the Plant Manager, grim-faced. "We’re replacing the old diesel scrubbers in two days, Elias. The hardware is bought, the I/O is wired, but the operator interface is a disaster. The old graphics are just static bitmaps. My operators need to see the flow rates move. They need to click the valves. If they can't control this from the control room, we’re running back and forth in the rain. Fix it."
