Yes, we think this feature will be very very handy. Our example is very basic but hopefully
it shows the technical details you need to create flashy PPG UI.
Here is some extra info from the siPPGControlType enumeration:
siControlSynoptic
SynopticWidget
A control that shows a synoptic view. You use this control with a string parameter whose value is the full path to the synoptic file. The size of the synoptic view determines the size of the control. For an example of the synoptic control, see the PPGDemos in the SDK examples workgroup.

For a start, there is an Embedded Synoptic example in the XSI SDK workgroup (of XSI 5.0).
Does that help at all?

Holy crap! I'd love to see a quick rundown on this!
Thanks for the heads up brad.
