    Thank you for taking the time to provide your ideas to IBM. We truly value our relationship with you and appreciate your willingness to share details about your experience, your recommendations, and ideas.Our team has reviewed this enhancement request and determined that it is unlikely to be incorporated into the product in the near-term.
    There are certain app-level XML properties, such as barcode scanning formats. However, it's unlikely that we would add support for a wide range of visual properties.
    If you would like to be involved in other Maximo enhancements, please email smithjor@us.ibm.com to become part of our sponsored user group, which is a program where you and people in your organization become active participants in the Maximo design process, working alongside our design teams to help us create great future experiences for real target users.
