Moving Wires

Complete the following steps to reposition a portion or all of the wire.

  1. Use the Positioning tool to single-click the wire to select one segment of the wire, double-click to select a branch, or triple-click to select the entire wire.
  2. Drag the wire to the new location. You also can restrict the direction and increments of movement.

Notice that adjacent, unselected segments stretch to accommodate the new location.

Complete the following steps to reposition one or more wire segments.

  1. Use the Positioning tool to single-click the wire to select one segment of the wire.
  2. (Optional) Press the <Shift> key and use the Positioning tool to single-click the wire to select another segment of the wire.
  3. Drag the segments to the new location. You also can restrict the direction and increments of movement.

You can select and drag multiple wire segments, even discontinuous segments, simultaneously.

Moving a tunnel sometimes creates an extra wire segment, called a hidden wire segment, that lies beneath the structure border. You cannot select and drag this segment because it is hidden. If you are unsure about which wire is connected to a tunnel, triple-click the wire to view the entire wire path.

Note  You can change the path of an existing wire without selecting and moving the wire. Create the new wire path between the same terminals, and LabVIEW deletes the previous wire path.
