LabVIEW Idea Exchange
Like some other ideas here and here, I find the connector pane right-click context menu to be a burden. I would like to see some of the menu items moved or rearranged.
For example, I’ve been using LabVIEW a few years, but the first time I tried many of the shortcut menu items was today. If I were looking for them, I would probably expect to look under "Patterns".
Additionally, if I click a little to the right, three more of the menu options are already available in a much shorter context menu, so I don't feel like they are needed from the connector pane. (Personally, I rarely perform these actions through the icon, anyway, but I’m sure some people do.)
I propose removing the top few items and putting the others in the patterns sub-menu.
Something like this:
Or, if combining the text and patterns creates a UI programming issue, I think it would be acceptable to leave "Patterns" and add a new sub-menu:
Thank you for considering this idea!
