Add In Place Element Structure Functions on Tunnel Menu

Status: New

I would like to have that in place element structure specific operations can be added on a tunnel. This would integrate especially well with drag-a-box-then-Ctrl-Space an ipe.

Hi! Not to divert the idea, but there are some community shortcut menu plug-in that might be fit to solve the problem, although in slightly different ways:

Create border nodes from the tunnel: Create IPES Border Node.llb - NI Community

Inserting In Place Element structure with the border node: Insert IPE in Any Wire AZ.llb - NI Community

Creating an In Place Element structure with the border node: LabVIEW Class And Cluster Unbundle Bundle With IPE.llb - NI Community

Inserting an In Place Element structure for class wires only in member VIs, and cluster wires in any VI: LabVIEW Class And Cluster Wire Insert IPE.llb - NI Community

 

The advantage might be, that some of these plug in can do what you wish in a single step, or can try to get a bit more generic approach for multiple IPE border nodes guessed automatically. The downside is, that the guess sometimes does not match the expectation, so experimenting and maybe tweaking might be necessary.
