Just for kicks, a transparent ruler that shows up when you hit CTRL+SHIFT+R in LabVIEW.

Thanks Jack. Just having that ruler to copy and paste is a big help. I see a Merge VI on the horizon... (edit: oops, I mean Place VI Contents).

Jack, I would be delighted if you could explain the action a bit.  I am not sure about the Class Specifier for Pane and the VI Server Reference for Pane.  I can see that if a mouse down event happens on the ruler, you register the VI Server Ref for Pane events Mouse Move and Mouse Up.  What does VI Server Ref to Pane actually do?  Upon mouse up event, you register Class Specifier for Mouse Move and Mouse Up.  What is the difference?

Thanx,

Sure, but in honor of DJ Supersoak and in the spirit of not hijacking Darren's post any further, let's continue here...
