Locked Arrow Decoration

[SteveChandler]

I really like the arrow decorations under structures for commenting or pointing out code. The problem is that if I move code the arrow no longer points to what I want it to point to. I propose that there be a method to "lock" the two ends to objects so that they can be resized or moved and the ends of the arrow stay with the object.

This is a nice idea, although it looks like your example might also be handled by the "Advanced Code Commenting" idea which recently got over the line...

That said, I would very much enjoy "anchor-able" decorations. Kudos!

I guess the idea would require a bunch of predefined anchor locations (e.g. corner, centre of edge) for when objects are resized.

The Advanced Code Commenting idea is a good one and I gave it kudos. Although they both pertain to code documentation they are quite different.

I have always thought that the arrow decorations should have a Label which would be a nice place to put the text.  At least cuts down on the number of moving parts.

I just downloaded 2013. Nice to see that this was implemented! It would have been even nicer to see my name in the LabVIEW help. Oh well...
