Turn off front panel selection scrolling

[jzoller]

Is it possible?

Thanks,

Not sure what you mean by turning off selection scrolling.

If you hide the scroll bars the FP doesn't scroll. Is that what you mean?

That's an idea...

During development, drop a cluster (like an error control) on an extreme edge of a front panel window, and try to select it by "lassoing" it (that is, drawing a selection area around it).

On my computer, it inevitably results in my carefully aligned pane haring off into parts hitherto unknown, requiring that I resort to programmatic tricks to realign it when run.

In short, it's irritating, just like the on-by-default-but-can-be-turned-off selection scrolling on the table indicator is irritating. :thumbdown:

Okay, off to grump elsewhere

I agree that this is quite irritating. Kind of like the on-by-default-but-can-be-turned-off Place Structures with Auto-Grow Enabled. I have started using the OpenG Fit VI window to Largest Decoration.VI with the Border Spacing input set to -2 to hide the decoration. That is a quick and easy way to ensure my front panels are always aligned where I want them to be at runtime.
