Reorder Multiple Plots by Dragging Order

Status: New

The only way to order reorder plotted times is to rewire the block diagram.  It would be useful to have the ability to change the order by dragging items on the plot legend into the desired order.

If properties of the plots are set programmatically, the values wired to the Active Plot property node have to be changed accordingly in the diagram !

The only way I can see this idea possible is to exchange the visual properties of two plots.

 

Sometimes we configure the visual aspects of some plots directly on the FP. Only when we run the program we will be able to figure out that the data doesn't match the plots like we planned. Then a easy exchange of the visual attributes in two clicks would be nice.

If the plot order is too hard to change- I can see a lot of problems- then some form of layering control- to allow one plot to be brought in front of the other, on the plot canvas, would be very nice...
