Thanks Julian, Will digest over the weekend !!
As usual plenty to learn from the master !
How are the eyes going - on the mend ?

Thanks for asking Craig. Getting there. I've some temporary glasses which should help tide me over until I can get my other eye's cataract sorted.
If you need to look at some code, check out resources\editor-common.js which is loaded as an editor plugin. Each of my uibuilder nodes references the global object it creates.
Deleted cos of buggy code
I think that one of the big things I learned when using MQTT for a bit was that, at least using Mosquitto, it is so efficient at handling messages that it is not problem at all having different topic threads representing the same data for different purposes. Even my humble home automation setup can hit >10k messages in each direction each minute and has no real impact on my host system at all (and the same was true when running previously on a Pi).
For the most part though, I try to keep each message as simple as possible. Preferring single value messages to more complex and larger JSON values where feasible.
WIll do thanks Julian

Craig
