I missed a feature in LabVIEW where I can define how a GUI control element, for example a text box, change his size, when a panel size is changed.
In MS Visual Studio this feature is called “ancor”, to define on which corner on the panel the control element shall be fixed.
When you define to fix a control element to top, left and right in MS Visual Studio, the size of this element change only when the panel size change in the right direction but not in the bottom direction. So maybe a text box change only in the length but not in the height.
In LabVIEW you can only set a control element to “scale object with pane”.
When the panel sizing is changed, the control element changes his size in both directions length and height. This leads to look not nice, because round buttons enlarge to elliptical buttons and text boxes enlarge to squares.
So I suggest implementing this “anchor” feature in LabVIEW.
