MATH feature request

[RBPLC]

One frustrating thing about using the MATH instruction is having to know the exact name of all variables needed in the instruction. I'm hoping you guys can incorporate some way to search for variables while in the MATH instruction. It's difficult building an equation with multiple variables and not being able to look up those variables but instead being required to remember them and correctly spell all of them.

With your cursor in the Expression multi-line editor, hit F9 to bring up the Element Picker.  It also works in the Result field.

We need to add a button, in addition to the hot key.

We are looking to implement an auto-complete mechanism for elements, function calls, parameters, etc.  I think this will be extremely helpful.

Didn't realize you could do this with F9 (not something I use frequently). A button would definitely be helpful.

Auto-complete would be the most helpful (better than a button).

And retained but ignored whitespace, like tabs, CRLFs, etc., so we can format long expressions for better reading.

We added an Element Picker button to the Expression field label in 2.9.3

Auto Complete is a little more work, TBD

Thanks franji. Threshold = Button, Objective = Auto Complete.
