automatically increase timeout period when execution is highlighted

[dennis_the_menace]

when I program using queues, I prefer to set a sensible timeout period on the dequeue VI

however, when I run the highlight execution tool, suddenly the timeout periods need to be set a lot longer to compensate for the slower execution....in fact I get lots of spurious timeouts, caused by the debugging process

it would be great if there was an option to suspend timeout, or make the timeout period X times longer, when execution is highlighted

even a VI to detect that execution has been highlighted would help solve the problem

this would be useful for other communication mechanisms as well, notifiers etc.......

in addition timing, like wait_n_ms, timed loops, should be automatically changed to execute only once per loop.
