Idea Exchange: Post your lonely orphans

If you use Diagram Cleanup at ALL, perhaps you are are bothered by the fact that it'll move the Iteration Terminal and Conditional Terminal in loops. Isn't it good Style to leave those in the corners? Here's my old Idea with just 18 Kudos.

I was just about to post something very similar to this. The idea is to drag a terminal to an event structure which launches the configuration dialog. See my comments in the thread for a variation.

Hi,

 


I often open files with excel by drag and dropping them in the program, and I still think this should be a default behaviour of Windows program (and so LabVIEW program !)

So needed in a modern UI programming environment (I am thinking of the FP part of the suggestion): Format-Painter-for-FP-and-BD-objects-think-Word-Excel-format

Over a decade into the 21st century and we still have to specify our default connector pane in the ini file. ARGHHH!! I can never remember the correct syntax and have to decipher a jumbled mess of an existing ini file to find the correct command.

 

These ideas are years old but very popular ... and still VERY MUCH NEEDED. Please vote for this idea and this idea.

For a programming language which is primarily interfaced with the mouse, most widgets having a 2 or 3 pixel border is incredibly frustrating - espescially with nested arrays/clusters etc.

 

Add a handle / border bump that gives a larger target to right click!

THIS IDEA! Very popular but 2 years old now. Still considered "new".
