PhixFlow vs CenterView

New Graphical User Interface
...
- Users can quickly filter data by clicking on column headers.
- Users can sort data by clicking on column headers. Sorting operates on all filtered records, not just the records in the paged view
- The user can choose to fix the position of several columns on the left of a data grid. This keeps the columns visible when the the data grid is scrolled horizontally e.g. if there are many columns
- Columns will now automatically "flex" to make use of the avaialble width of the display if their width is set to null (i.e. no value).
- Changes made to the column widths by dragging the column edges are saved when in desgin mode.
- A second, merged header row can be confgiured to provide a visual grouping of related columns.
- Cells within the grids can all be formatted intependently based on their value. E.g. setting backgound and foreground colours, bold, borders etc.

Streams
In-memory Streams
Analysis now applies limits on the number of items cached in in-memory streams in order to avoid grabbing too much memory (which causes excessive garbage collection and/or system failure). The Limits limits can be controlled on per stream basis or via a In memory cache size default in system configuration. Warnings are reported when in set from the System Configuration form. PhixFlow provides warnings when an in-memory stream has reached 90% of its size. If limits are set to enforced within the System Configuration, then analysis will stop when the limit is reached, otherwise only warning messages are reported in the console logs.
