NI LabVIEW 2023 Q3 v23.3.0

Diagram zoom

One of the most asked features is finally here, the diagram zoom functionality. With the new Diagram Zoom, you can easily zoom in and out using Ctrl and the scroll wheel. Several new keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl - -, Ctrl - + for zooming in and out, and Ctrl - 0 to zoom to actual size make it even more convenient.

It’s a shame NI still hasn’t implemented zoom for the front panel, the place where we actually need the zoom function for pixel perfect placement of UI elements.

Double-click to Finish Wire
