Signal Flow view option shows all channel strips (e.g., Aux, Output, Master) within the audio signal path of the selected channel strip.
a very useful feature. It's just an idea of logic pro I've worked in for about 15years now. Time to move on.

no I still have to use it...

Maybe the awesome Presonus team comes up with something unique in that direction.

This is how I'd implement this idea.
Obviously this is a mixer only feature.
Have you used the Trace Precedent function in Microsoft Excel, it can be used on a formula to show which cells are used in the calculation by the process of stepping backwards through the formula.
Now take this idea and have it so that when you right click a mixer track you can select "show dependents"-this will show a signal flow line linking all tracks concerned, and with directional arrows to show what is feeding what. You should also be able to do the reverse so that clicking a bus track you should have a menu option of "show precedents"- this shows all the tracks that are going into the bus.
