Add Bookmark.llb

Overview

 Adds right-click menu item for text labels that lets you quickly add bookmarks which you have already used. While this may not increase development speed, it will hopefully drive consistency in which bookmarks you use.

Description

When right-clicking a text label an Add Tags menu item with several submenu items, each a unique bookmark, will become available. After selecting a submenu item, the bookmark is added to the beginning of the text label.

The submenu items list is generated by looking for all unique tags in the VI's owning project. If a new bookmark tag is used in a VI, it will appear in the right-click menu only after the VI is saved.

Hardware and Software Requirements

LabVIEW 2016 or compatible

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

Add .llb to <LabVIEW>\resource\plugins\PopupMenus\edit time panel and diagram

Additional Information or References

If you have the bookmark manager open and use this plugin, you may see the bookmark appear and quickly be deleted. If this happens, open the execute VI and increase the magic wait fairy. If you actually know how to properly handle this case, please send me a private message.

Try saving the VI, the list won't update if a tag is added and the VI is not saved.

 

I also didn't really do a lot of testing outside of projects so let me know if that doesn't work.
