    • This seems like a reasonable request, we’ll make sure we have it logged. What types of images are you going to add to symbols?

  1. It would be nice to have the option of the symbols chart not to have the small diagram of the actual symbol beside the name.
    I use a tablet on site, and I can have an entire list if it doesn’t have the diagrams.
