Growing direction of arrays at edit time

[ManuBzh]

I'd would find useful (may be it's already exists) to choose the editing growing direction of an array. It's used to be from left  to right and/or up to down, but others directions could be usefull.
Yes I can do it programmatically, but it's cumbersome and it useless calculus since it could directly done by the graphical engine.
Possible (and I forget about it) or already asked on the wishlist ? (I'm quite sure there's of one the two !)

I can't really remember ever having seen such a request. And to be honest never felt the need for it.

Thinking about it it makes some sense to support it and it would probably be not that much of work for the LabVIEW programmers, but development priorities are always a bitch. I can think of several dozen other things that I would rather like to have and that have been pushed down the priority list by NI for many years.

The best chance to have something like this ever considered is to add it to the LabVIEW idea Exchange https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/idb-p/labviewideas. That is unless you know one of the LabVIEW developers personally and have some leverage to pressure them into doing it. 😁

Je ne me souviens pas vraiment avoir déjà vu une telle demande. Et pour être honnête, je n'en ai jamais ressenti le besoin.

À bien y réfléchir, il semble logique de le prendre en charge, et cela ne représenterait probablement pas un travail considérable pour les programmeurs LabVIEW. Cependant, les priorités de développement sont toujours un vrai casse-tête. Je peux penser à plusieurs dizaines d'autres fonctionnalités que je préférerais avoir et qui sont reléguées au second plan par NI depuis des années.

La meilleure façon de tenter de faire prendre en compte une telle idée est de la soumettre à la plateforme d'idées LabVIEW :  https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/idb-p/labviewideas . À moins, bien sûr, que vous ne connaissiez personnellement un développeur LabVIEW et que vous ayez un certain pouvoir de persuasion pour l'inciter à s'y atteler.  😁

 

 

Unfortunately, I don’t have that privileged access, no… 😄
A very simple example: it would allow for consistent display between a table and its corresponding intensity chart, right?
But also for any display that needs to be right-to-left, such as numbers,etc.
