There are keyboard shortcuts with fairly universal adoption that LabVIEW does not utilize, but would be helpful. Two of these are:
Shift + scroll wheel: for side scrolling in front panels or block diagrams. (And yes, this is useful in many situations that do not involve over-sized diagrams.)
F2: for editing text content, i.e. of a selected label, comment, etc.
Since both of the ideas are independently duplicate, I'm going to close this one as duplicate. Note that the shift+scroll is implemented in LabVIEW NXG.
