Automatically create new vi from selection

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 08-19-2009 09:55 AM 5 Comment

It would be very useful to have a way of automatically create subvis when a single vi become too large. What we usually do is :

1. Select the portion we want ton encapsulate in a new vi.

2. ctrl-X.

3. Create new VI, save as, chose name, change icon.

4. ctrl-V.

5. Connect the front panel.

6. Add the new vi to the original diagram.

7. Connect the new vi.

8. Debug mistakes.

 

I think steps 2 to 8 could be automated with a single function (e.g. 'transmute selected code into a single vi'), saving a little time many times.

Conditional terminal for individual frames of sequence structures

Status: Declined Submitted by Active Participant on 08-12-2009 12:21 PM 4 Comment

A conditional terminal for each frame of a sequence structure would allow one to exit the sequnce at any frame.  This could be useful in case something occured in one frame that meant the remaining frames should not be executed.  Easier than having to use case statements in the later frames.

User Dialog that doesn't keep the rest of my code waiting until OK is pressed

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 08-07-2009 02:59 AM 6 Comment

I'd like to have a user dialog that shows a message to the user but doesn't wait for the OK button being pressed to continue. I want to use it as a simple informative pop-up window that the user can close whenever he or she read it, without my code having to wait for the OK button.

I now use a self made VI that I call using the VI Server method 'Run VI' with 'Wait until done' set to FALSE. Or did I miss something obvious?

Idea exchange enhancements

Status: Declined Submitted by Member on 07-31-2009 04:09 PM 3 Comment

Sorry if this is a duplicate.  I though I posted this a couple of days ago, but it hasn't appeared.

 

 

These are suggestions for this site:

 

Add a label: "Ideas Exchange Enhancements"

 

Put "Previous" and "Next" at the top of the page as well as the bottom.  Better yet allow us to go to the first, last, or particular pages like other forums (ex:   << 1 2 3... >>).  Put this interface at top and bottom.

 

In advanced search give the option to go to the PAGE the idea appears on rather than the idea itself.  Currently if I search for a particular date (the last time I looked at ideas) I get a list of ideas for that date.  If I click on an idea I go to the idea itself and any posted comments.  There doesn't seem to be a way to get to that day's page of ideas short of starting at the first and clicking on "Next" over and over.

Close every probes in one click

Add a modifier key when we close one probe (CTRL for example) will close every probe.
