AutoDocumentation QD Plugin

I have developed a QD plugin that will allow you to auto-populate the VI documentation based on Hashtag comments.

The code is also included to run this on all VIs in a directory.

I like this tool, makes it much quicker and nicer to have all VI's documented in the same style and way.

Something that would be nice, and I will see if I can find time to work on that, would be to have attached comments for all controls/indicators and a discription comment added with ctrl+shift+O for example. So you just have to add the comment not the "#Input ctrlname" part.

That was the original idea, to add a comment with the attached arrow to the input/output.  The problem is that the functionality needed to do that is not public.  The bookmark was the next best thing and does the trick.

I see, thought I could pull it off with Scripting. I've started to look into it, I'll write to comments this far. Now I'm working on inserting comments with scripting, haven't got it working yet but should be doable.
