Pressing Undo after dropping a Structure places Structure back on Cursor

[jgcode]

I think it would be really cool if LabVIEW placed a Structure back on the Cursor if you press Undo after dropping it.

This would save a lot of time going back into the Palettes. 

For example:

Yes - using Quick Drop shortcuts would be a faster way than the palettes, but old habits...

Hitting undo does not necessarily mean I want to relocate the same structure.

I might want to replace it by something (entirely) different.

Personally I do not run into the described situation very often; I see no reason to put the same structure on cursor as default behaviour.

[jgcode]

The described situation is just an examplem but thats cool if you don't use it often.

As it stands now you could always right click or hit escape to remove the object it from the cursor.

I don't think the suggested behavior is intuative.  I think undo should undo the action (and therefore the selection of the component to perform the action).  For example, if I grabbed the LTEQ primative, dropped it, then realised I wanted the GTEQ instead, I don't think undo should pop the LTEQ back on the cursor.

Instead of starting over, I have always wished there was a way to stretch a structure to enclose more code, or remove code from one side or the other.

Maybe the idea should have been to put the last used object quickly back on the cursor (but not as default behaviour)??

@Darin - I think I have seen this idea (by someone at NI?) I will have a search

Some alternate form of undo, like ctrl+alt+z?

I like the sound of that
