block diagram limit area to clean it up.

[ziedhosni]

Hello,

I would like to clean up my block diagram but I want it to be the most condenced possible in space. Is it possible to insert it inside a rectangle that fit the window of the screen and clean it up without enlarging the rectangle.

Cheers,

Zied

Hey,

I'm not sure I 100% understand your question. In the future it would be better to post this on the LabVIEW forum, as this is a LabVIEW question and not specificially about switches. 

You can use the block diagram cleanup tool on a specific part of your block diagram and pressing Ctrl-U.

The enlargement is usually because of some hidden case structures or a diagram where there are numerous controls wired up to other nodes.

Usually multiple cases do not cleanup well with the automatic tool.

If you just want to cleanup a small portion of wires and nodes I would use a simple sequence structure to wrap them temporarily, then when the cleanup is done remove the sequence.

There is probably a better way to do this than what I am describing.

Some of this cleanup behavior can be controlled under Options:Block diagram:Block Diagram cleanup.
