DQMH Consortium Toolkits Feature Requests
When adding an helper loop from the scripter, add a checkbox that would allow creating a subVI that contains the helper loop.
This checkbox should be unchecked by default.
If checked, a (private) VI is create and contains the helper loop.
The subVI is then dropped inside the Main.vi where the helper loop would have been created.

Cyril, after reviewing your idea and discussing it internally, we decided to decline it.
Why not accept it? The amount of work might be considerable as scripting tools would have to find and dig into subVIs. Also, it's perfectly possible to do this manually for helper loops that are done and don't need to be touched again.
Anecdotally, zoom in LV23Q3 helps with navigating big block diagrams 😉
Post-event hooks (VIs you can execute after creating events or modules), which will be part of a future DQMH version, might allow you to implement this on your end.
Again, thank you for your input; it is most appreciated. Please keep those ideas coming!
