What types of LabVIEW right-click menu features do you want to create?

Probe Watch Table Functions:

1. Select multiple wires, R-Clk and select a universal type custom probe

2. Probes are inserted into all the wires at once (saves time over going to the menu on each wire)

3. The probes each have a Variant Queue on the inside, that passes data to the Watch Table Manager (WTM)

4. If the Watch Table Manager dialog is not open, then open it

5. Register the group of probes, their wire locations, etc as a group in the Watch Table.

6. WTM allows option to save group definitions as a Probe Config File

7. R-Clk on a blank spot on a VI diagram and get a list of WTM pre-defined groups for that VI in submenu, apply as selected

8. Manage groups to combine groups for VIs in a project

9. R-Clk on a probed wire and get option to delete all probes in associated group.

I think watching this FTP link is worthwhile:

ftp://ftp.ni.com/pub/devzone/NI_Labs/VI%20Scripting.zip

It is empty so far.

As I was working on an FPGA application yesterday, I realized a great tool would be the ability to select an FPGA IO Node and a Build Array function and have it automatically size the Build Array with the proper number of terminals and wire them all.

This is a setup I use quite a bit on FPGA to pass data into a DMA. Would save a lot of clicks.

Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

The JKI team wants to let everyone know that we are working hard to get the right-click framework released, now that scripting has been publicly released!  We’ve got a few loose strings to tie up, but hopefully it won’t take long, so stay tuned.  We're totally motivated by all the excitement and great feedback we've already received from everyone thanks!

The ability to convert a 'c' style enum string (BD constant) to a LabVIEW enum.

While developing OO code, it may be useful some "Insert member VI"  pop-up when the user right-clicks the object wire.It would be nice

either to have access to base class members from the same inteface.

Hey Pat,

Very nice work!  Great job decoding the DPID with brute force!

The operations you've shown in the video should plug into the RCF in a very straight-forward way, keep up the great work.

I'll make sure that the JKI team sees your video.

Thanks,

-Jim
