Invoke the "Replace With..." method in a LabVIEW Project?

I let you do it .

How much should we ask for... Well... I don't know.

Maybe if we merely ask for a "remane" method we have more chances to get the LabVIEW team to do it because it's not a huge work AND we'd get a lot of support on the Idea Exchange.

I have no idea how NI is deciding what idea should be implemented.

My suggestion is to post one idea for "rename method" and another idea for all the project level menu item.

We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.

When one user suggests it, it gets routed to one developer (whoever owns that general part of the code) and that developer either adds it to their roadmap or not, implementing it the next time they happen to be working on the features of LV that the suggestion affects. When 100 users suggest it, it gets on many developers' radars, and someone may be reallocated from other projects to work on it sooner than later. But on the flip side, most developers do not read the Idea Exchange regularly, and so only the high kudos ideas suggested there ever get reviewed by the developers who might implement them.

I'd use the Idea Exchange for something you think many users might use, for a change request to common use cases of LV and for ideas that might require a team of developers.

I'd use the PSC for things that are corner or edge cases that are bugging you personally and for things that a single R&D person might be able to quickly tweak if only he/she were made aware of it.

But mostly I'd either file a CAR or use the Idea Exchange.
