Expandable VIs

Status: Declined

Any idea that has received less than 5 kudos within 5 years after posting will be automatically declined.

Allow user to expand VIs Vertically, Horrizontally or Both.  This will maintain the terminal size standard.  The Icon graphic would remain the same size, although the size of the VI would certainly be larger.

With this idea, you could make a killer connectorpanosaurus

Thanks for the laughs!!  However you did add a feature on that page to "Define New Connector Pane".  I am merely suggesting it be easier.  I seldom use anything larger than the default pane in version 8.6, but sometimes I just need a few more inputs.  Long live the connectopanosaurus!  I do like your suggestion to limit the initial selections.  Happy Wireworks.

You can kind-of do a subset of this when you toggle a subVI's "View as Icon" - when it's off, you can drag the bottom of the subVI to show as few or as many of the terminals there as you like.
