We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.

I wish frame colour for all type of structure was exposed. When I change case sensitiveness on a case structure I usually like to change the frame colour as a reminder

I wish the inline VI method was accessible.

I wish that it were possible to place a structure around a group of objects (instead of just placing an empty structure, which is all you can do now), like the user can when they place a structure with the mouse.

I wish there was a method that returned a VI's run-time menu ref. You can get the RTMenu path, but not the ref.

I just wanted to chime in and say that:

1) I'm responsible for continuing development on LabVIEW Scripting.

and

2) I'm following this thread.

I can't promise that everything you ask for will make it into the next release of LabVIEW, but I can promise that everything you ask for was considered.

Keep the wishes rolling in!

Maybe more of a project api wish than strictly scripting, but I wish the way to set the default palette for a library was more obvious...
