Quickdrop For Project Items Only

Status: Declined

Any idea that has received less than 4 kudos within 4 years after posting will be automatically declined.

Quickdrop is one of my most frequently used LabVIEW development features.

 

I have a project with a lot of items in it. It would be nice if there were a way to activate quickdrop such that it limits results to items in my project. Maybe something like shift-space, or ctrl-shift-space.

A low-tech solution to this is to just type 'lvproj' in the Quick Drop search box before you type anything else.  That appears to filter the results appropriately, i.e. there's nothing in the palettes with "lvproj" in its name.

I've just run into this one. I usually have the project open in the class I am using so I can quickly grab VIs as I develop code, but having quicker quick drop access to project items would be a massive time saver.
