New popup menu for multiple controls or indicators selection to create multiple local variables and property notes in single operation.

http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Every-GUI-Programmer-s-Dream/idc-p/1482734#M11013 The other idea propose by Jack Dunaway would encompass this functionality of right-click menu options for multiple selected objects.

Presently there is single option in pop menu (Properies") when you right click on multiple controls and indicators. It is  very boring to create references or local variables of multiple controls and indicators one by one. It will be very useful If we have other option in popup menu as attached image.

 

Present menu option

My idea is to have multiple option as shown below.It should be "Hide Controls and Indicators" option in place of "Hide Indicator" option. There should be only common properies and methods in create--Property nodes/Invoke nodes option.

 

New Idea

I am sorry for making spell mistake "Property Notes" instead of "Propery Nodes".

I think this is mostly a duplicate of http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Every-GUI-Programmer-s-Dream/idc-p/1482734#M11013.  Though this does suggest the addition of hiding/showing multiple things.

Some of what you are asking for can be done with already existing Right Click Framework Tools.

 

Look at RCF Plugin - Build Array of References
