# ZAlign by Zuehlke Engineering - QuickDrop PlugIn for LabVIEW

## ZAlign allows the the automatic re-arrangement of Front Panel Elements

### Overview:

![Example of ZAlign](https://github.com/Zuehlke/ZAlign/blob/main/ZAlign/ZAlign.jpg)

This QuickDrop PlugIn allows the fast and clean arrangement of Fornt Panel elements.

On a front panel all controls are automatically arranged according to the connector pane and the window size is adjusted.

Controls that are not connected are listed under Locals.

The grid used can be customized in the ZAlign.ini file in the installation directory.

(C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 20XX\resource\dialog\QuickDrop\plugins\ZAlign)

There is also an extended mode for GUI front panels (HowTo).

### How to Use

On a front panel all controls are automatically arranged and the window size is adjusted.

Key commands to run ZAlign:

1) CTRL-Space (start QuickDrop)

2) Run CTRL-A ZAlign

There is also the extended mode for GUI front panels. In this case the elements must be selected which

should be aligned. The controls are then arranged in the upper left quadrant. Everything else remains

unchanged at its position.

### Short notice

Although it should work out of the box, the latest release has only been tested on Windows 7 and 10, not on Linux or Mac
