Object count visibility in programs at all times

At present, we only get a warning as to the number of objects used in a program when we get to 80 out of 100.

This means that, often too late, we might realise that we aren't going to have enough objects to complete a program and have to go back to the drawing board to split the program functionality into multipple programs. This is easily done, especially if you underestimate how many objects a single object uses eg decision points and segmentation points.

I think it would be an easy win to simply give visibility to the number of objects used at all times.

    Thank you for the idea! We are actually increasing the number of allowed objects to 200 tonight. The same notification cadence, at 80% and then countdowns from there is still the same with the new expanded limit. However, we have plans to update our panels to include more real time status - this likely fits into that work planned for later this year.
