Network Map by OS Type

I posted this to the R7000 section, and a moderator suggested I repost here.

 

Genie performs most functions rather well, but I think the Network Map needs improvement.  I often have more devices than will fit on one screen and must page to screen 2.  There does not appear to be any logic between these pages.  My network includes Windows systems, Android devices and others including other Netgear equipment. 

 

I would like to have Genie automatically distribute devices by OS type if there is more than one screen required.  I accept that the device running Genie appears on both screens regardless, but it would be helpful if Windows machines and Android devices appeared on separate screens.  That way I can see my Windows setup in one glance or go to work with the Android screen.  Miscellaneous gear can all appear on either screen (or perhaps yet another -- wasteful (?).  I find it awkward to find Windows and Android devices on one screen and then see that there is another screen that has other unorganized equipment
