Dialog keyboard shortcuts

In most programs when a dialog pops up with options one of the letters is highlighted and you can press  that key to send that command. 

 

For example when asked to save there are two options "Save" or "Don't save."  In LabVIEW you should be able to press the "S" or "D" key to get rid of this dialog. 

 

A LOT of people like to use the keyboard as much as possible and this is a big annoyance because they have to then move their hand to the mouse just to get rid of this dialog.

 

 Maybe I'm just lazy...

I recognize that this idea came first out of the two but the other has more kudos and thus a better shot of getting high enough to gain R&D attention. Therefore I am going to close this idea out as a duplicate and encourage people who like this idea to vote for the other http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Allow-pressing-n-and-s-for-Save-Don-t-Save-at-VI-close...
