Add constants of arrays of common data types to functions pallete

[kosist90]

Currently, in Array Functions pallete, there is only empty array constant. But, isn't it possible to add constant of numeric, boolean and string arrays also? Anyway, it would be faster then to add them to block diagram, than now. Empty array constant should stay for sure - b/c it's not possible to predict all possible array types - but such common arrays will be useful. It's like in case of Silver Controls - there are already numeric and strings array (but also - why not to add boolean array there too? What was the logic behind it?).

Instead of cluttering menus with more repetitive functions and constants you could select the data type with a right-click>select>datatype.

The bigger you make the palettes, the harder it will be to navigate them and we lose time elsewhere.

There are plenty of better ideas here to make arrays easier to create:

"Change to array" / "Change to element" for controls, indicators, constants (listed as "in beta!" :D)

Implement "Add Dimension" for non-array controls/indicators and "Remove Dimension" for 1D arrays.

Good enough?

Yes, the first one is good enough, indeed - I didn't see it in list of similar, while creating of this idea... My Kudo is already there )
