Comment field for the devices

Post by Scipio »

Hi !

It would be nice if the devices have a field where we can put some comments. It can be the location of the device, or some information about the kind of the device.

I don't think that the feature will be hard to add. :)

Bad suggestion ?
I just thought that attaching some info to the devices could be a good thing...

No, rather it's very easy and a good suggestion. I am considering "how" to implement in the UI however.

I'm a non native English speaker myself, so sometimes I'm having problems with such phrases too.
"No brainer" in my understanding means "It's so easy, you don't even have to use your brain to create this function".
