I would like to see enhancements to the Ladder Diagram Editor so that when connected online to the Controller / Simulator live data values are displayed under / near the OPERATE Block.
I appreciate that there is a so called quick way to see live data, which is to select the OPERATE block and use Ctrl+T or right click and select "Initialize animation table" to initialize an animation table with all variables involved in the OPERATE block, but this is not the same as seeing the values directly in the LD Editor and it is extra clicks. Many customers complain about this and other vendors provide this capability, especially Rockwell.
