Way to configure quick drop ( control and indicator style ) in options

[sandyy]

Hi 

Quick drop is very uselful tool. When using Quick drop in front panel . A mix of different style listed .

To maintain consistent style would be better to select the style to be appered on the qucik drop. Might be useful

Add quick drop setting in the option to configure style. Though theres an option to add that in shortcuts.( thinking of adding all the items in shortcut is impossible)

 I usually work on multiple panel types throughout the day (dialog, silver, modern, etc.). To make things easier, I have object shorcuts configured for different styles of controls that I drop frequently. 'nc' is a modern Numeric control, 'snc' is a silver Numeric control, etc.

You can download my object shortcuts here.

Hi Darren

Thats Sounds great..! 

Is it a default in latest version of labview (2014) ? or do i need to add up to ini file?  

The question is because im planning to take my CLD, if i can use those shortcuts by default that would be great.

Else i cant add all those before exam.

Many thanks for the reply

We don't currently ship any pre-configured object shortcuts in LabVIEW, so you'll need to update your INI file.

It's my understanding that you are allowed some time prior to starting the certification exam to customize the machine...during that time, I think you could add your QD object shortcuts. But you'll want to double-check with your proctor beforehand to make sure this is allowed.

Good luck on your CLD! Don't forget to check out my blog post on preparing for the CLD exam.
