Hi all, I had a request to document my favorite quick drop shortcuts that we demonstrated at the last NOCLUG meeting, and it turns out that it's already very well documented here:
Boost Productivity with Quick Drop (https://www.ni.com/en/support/documentation/supplemental/08/boost-labview-productivity-with-quick-...
If you want to quickly populate the controls and indicators of a VI and fix the labels, do the following:
- Select the VI
- <ctrl + space> then <ctrl + D>
- <ctrl + space> then <ctrl + T>
I find <ctrl + space> then <ctrl + T> to be very helpful to clean up the labels of controls and indicators, but it only works at the top level of a block diagram (not inside structures).
Two more wonderful links for quick drop shortcuts with additional shortcuts for right-handed users:
