Selective Ctrl-B limited by a selection ... (Deletes all broken wires in a selected portion of a VI)

Status: Completed
Available in LabVIEW 2012

It should be nice to limit the action of Ctrl-B to a selected part of the block diagram.

 

For the moment the Ctrl-B removes all brocken wires in the complete VI.

 

Sometime when you have a case structure with multiple cases ... and when you have multiple brocken wires in many cases ...It is usefull to keep non visible broken wires...

The broken arrow (list of pending errors) will then help you to find all locations to modify.

See here also.  Very slight difference in that this one is selection, rather than all visible wires.

If you want to try this out as a QD shortcut, I have posted an example in the LV forum.

Wouldn't it be better if it were a new command like ALT- B or CTL<SHFT>B so that long time users don't have to relearn how the shortcut keystrokes work in various versions of LabVIEW?
