Comparison palette should always accompany other context-sensitive Functions palettes in shortcut menus

Status: New

Right-clicking objects on the block diagram in LabVIEW produces a shortcut menu that often includes context-sensitive function palettes, which is a fabulous productivity enhancement that I love.  For example, if you right-click on a string constant, you get a shortcut menu that includes the String Palette so you do not have to explicitly open the string portion of the Functions palette.

 

One extremely common operation when dealing with any data type is a comparison operation (equal, not equal, etc.).  As such, I would like to request that the Comparison palette always be a part of the shortcut menus whenever other context-sensitive palettes are also present.  That would save the time of having to open the Comparison portion of the Functions palette whenever you need to do a comparison.

I think this is a valid suggestion. You may want to go beyond that and support this suggestion, whereby the IDE monitors the user's behavior and adapts to it.
