"View as Portal" for Controls and Indicators in the Block Diagram

Status: New

A portal view to the Front Panel elements from the Block Diagram through a feature like "View As Portal". This would be especially useful in the case of G codes doing calculations, simulations, and modelings in the Block Diagram for people like researchers, scientists, and educators.

*The color of the portal border could be color-matched to the data type (orange in the above case)

With the correct color of the portal border, it would be like this:

You can make custom probes to e.g. view the data in a graph a syou have done here...Not exactly the same, but a twist of your idea might be the ability to view custom probes on the block diagram directly..that way you could design whatever appearance you want as a proble (or VI) and it would show up as part of th block diagram... 🙂
