If the pipes on the canvas connect to no source of pressure, they will always be empty. Have the pipe not connected to a pump or an "H2O source" and you will have an empty pipe.A plumbing pipe with no flow would also be nice. Just like the animated flow ones but without animation or flow.
This was to simplify the display as well as the amount of updating to the screen to be done. I also wanted to be able to view more than one process and my solution was to have the "bracket" pointers draggable to the process you wanted to view. It works mostly, but there are still a few bugs to iron out with regard to state change updates, thus it is currently disabled.Just Noticed that only the Highest Process State Pane is displayed.
I'll do some more thinking on this.Some of the Info to the Right is not as useful to me so it could go.
Appreciate all the ideas.
