Undo Tile (ctrl + T)

[elset191]

I spend time making the size of my front panel and block diagrams fit my code well.  Unfortunately everyone once in a while I will hit ctrl+T when I'm trying to press ctrl+R to run my code, and it of course changes the dimensions of my windows.  I try to undo the operation, but it does not work properly (or as I would want it to).  It moves it back to its position, but the dimensions are all wrong still.  Very frustrating.

I propose that Undo reverts the panels to their pre-tiling size.

Yes yes yes yes yes yes. This should actually probably be a bug report.

You have NO IDEA how many times I've done this and cursed (luckily not out-loud) when this has happened to me, and then cursed again when Undo didn't undo it.

That said, it seems to work correctly in LabVIEW 2009, but I haven't tested it extensively.

Ya, I got hit by this one too quite a few time. Like smercurio_fc said, it appear to have been fixed in LV 2009 (which I did not know before I read this idea).

Wow. Yes we need this. I guess this is just one thing we have accepted to live with

Well till now.............

Undo worked on tiling in 7.1.1.  Did they break it in 8.x?

GAH! Got me again today

How come I've never had this problem?

[elset191]

Not sure, but be grateful

Several FP sizing/panning operations cannot be undone. I have not run into the ctrl-T problem (because I never use it), but especially with xcontrols where only a small section of the controls are typically visible, I sometimes double-click on the terminal of a control/indicator, only to have the FP irreversibly pan to some offscreen location to highlight the object.

The operation would be less damaging if we could define the runtime bounds seperately as suggested in this idea.

I agree.  I'll go one step further and recommend that we Remove the Window Tile Feature altogether.
