Edit / Format Selection only considers the first 49 characters

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello NI,

a more recent version of CVI introduced the convenient feature 'Edit / Format Selection' (Shift / Insert) allowing to 'beautify' code, e.g., convert

 

 

        MyLongFunctionName ( arg_1,
                                            arg_2,
                                            arg_3 )

 

to

 

        MyLongFunctionName ( arg_1,
                             arg_2,
                             arg_3 )

 

This is especially convenient for nested for loops or if then else constructs.

 

Unfortunately, the algorithm used by CVI only seems to consider a limited number of characters, i.e., the alignment of 

 

        ThisFunctionNameUnfortunatelyIsTooLong ( arg_1,
                arg_2,
                arg_3 )

 

does not work as outlined above.

 

If I am allowed to suggest an improved version...Smiley Wink Thanks Smiley Happy
