Hey Guys LabVIEW R&D has responded in cross-post, jump across to the darkside if you want to chime in. Cheers -JG

I also don't understand the auto-tool hate. Just diable it? But it is not better than the quick drop. Those who say otherwise are clearly just wrong. I'll throw in support for UI/panel "feel" gripes. The icon editor was a huge step in the right direction and I didn't criticize it in 2009 since it was new, but since it's still chock full of bugs in 2010, I feel laying into it is justified. It's a good idea not fully executed, and as a result poorly executed. I won't say it shouldn't have been released in the state it's in, because it is better than the old one, but it is slow and annoying to say the least. -m

I don't understand the auto-tool hate. 1.) It is an option, you can turn it off. 2.) Its function is based on what pixel you are hovering over. Memorize the pixel context, turn down your mouse sensitivity and quit complaining. 3.) Yes, it doesn't switch to the paintbrush tool, but if you bind the tools palette to Ctrl+T (who tiles windows anyway?) then you're in business. Seriously, auto-tool gets the job done if you know how to use it. Your inability to use a tool doesn't invalidate its usefulness.
