jddd, a graphical tool for control system panel design, has been developed at DESY to allow machine operators and experts the design of complex panels. No knowledge of a programming language nor compiling steps are required to generate highly dynamic panels with the jddd editor. After 5 years of development and implementing requirements for DESY-specific accelerator operations, jddd has become mature and is increasingly used at DESY. The focus meanwhile has changed from pure feature development to new tasks as archiving/managing a huge number of control panels, finding panel dependencies, automatic refactoring of panel names, book keeping and evaluation of panel usage and collecting Java exception messages in an automatic manner. Therefore technologies of the existing control system infrastructure like Servlets, JMS, Lucene, SQL, SVN are used. The concepts and technologies to further improve the quality and robustness of the tool are presented in this paper.
