Quick Drop Plugin: Better Move

[JCC_(SK)]

QD Plugin for Better Move Objects in Block Diagram

Better Move as default LabVIEW shift/move feature which move Selected Objects only by 1 or 8 pixels. This Plugin move All Selected Objects until first Wire Bend.

See Animation (click to picture to Play animation) for more details.

Select Objects in Block Diagram and Invoke Plugin by <Ctrl><Space> <Ctrl><z> or <x> or <c> or <s> and plugin will move All Objects in required direction until first wire bend.

I am using this (First-Person Shooter) Shortcuts:

• z - move left
• x - move down
• c - move right
• s - move up

Steps  to Complete

• To install this plugin, unzip the folder into the <LabVIEW>\resource\quickDrop\plugins
• No LabVIEW restart is required

I like the idea, but I'm not willing to dedicate four Quick Drop shortcuts to it.  I'd implement it with a pop-up that recieved the direction, perhaps like this:

Thank you for your feedback.

I will change it.

I found that <Ctrl><x> is not good shortcut when you forgot press <Ctrl><space> 🙂

For me personally, I avoid assigning QDKS to the X, C, or V keys, as users may want to cut/copy/paste text into the Quick Drop text box, and a QDKS assigned to one of these keys would prevent this.
