The Tools palette contains the following tools, which you use to operate and modify front panel and block diagram objects.

Automatic Tool Selection—If automatic tool selection is enabled and you move the cursor over objects on the front panel or block diagram, LabVIEW automatically selects the corresponding tool from the Tools palette. You can disable automatic tool selection and select a tool manually. |
