VI Hierarchy for mind mapping, etc?

[cy...]

Good day forum

The already VI hierarchy is already a very useful tool in tracing dependencies and all, but if we can tweak it in the right way, it may be able to serve other purposes for instance, a organization chart plotter or mind mapper by playing with vi-subvi relations (multi-connection), icons as glyph, floating nodes as control/indicator terminal subVIs, etc.

if only this feature can be developed for LV users, it can serve as an additional value-adding tool, especially for mind mapping. should this be picked up, I would very much like to see a "resize-able" glyph for starters 🙂

or if it is remotely possible with the current versions through VI scripting, maybe the community can collaborate and work something out? and put it into Tools Network.

Why not use a mind mapping tool?

currently using some open source variants, the connections especially with the floating nodes can be tricky to be displayed properly. the VI hierarchy seemed to be able to handle it quite well, automatically...

hint: I use diagram cleanup regularly

I'm afraid I don't see how this would benefit LabVIEW? Or how it would benefit me using LabVIEW?

for project management? task delegation, feature specification and development status, etc

if it can be somewhat be merged with the SCC, can even show the compatibility between submitted codes per project sections between members as an overview
