Auto-wire bug when dragging/dropping?

I hate the 'Maintain Wire Connections' bug (NO!! IT'S NOT A FEATURE, IT'S A BUG!!).  I wish I could turn it off.  Even in those cases where it would be handy, I don't use it* because it tends to rearrange wires idiotically.

 

* I copy then delete instead of moving.


DragAutoWire=False

 

Se above in this thread.

 

Sometime wishes DO come true.

There's an idea in the Idea Exchange for disabling this 'feature'.

 

You can press 'W' while dragging to temporarily disable it, or use the labview.ini key mentioned to disable it permanently.

This was fixed in the LabVIEW 2018 SP1 f2 patch.
