[Feature] Swap Line Text Buttons

[RobustoSystems]

Summary / Description

It would be useful to have three additional buttons in the "Icon Text" tab, as shown in the mock-up design above.

When pressed, the first button would swap the contents of the "Line 1 text" with the contents of the "Line 2 text". The second button would swap the contents of the "Line 2 text" with those of the "Line 3 text", and the third button would swap the contents of the "Line 3 text" with those of the "Line 4 text".

An interesting question is: What should happen with the "Line 1 colors" when these buttons are pressed? Should the line colours also be swapped, or should the colours remain in place? Personally I would be happy with either behaviour, as the vast majority of VIs I work with use pure black colour - RGB(0,0,0) - on all four lines of text. So both approaches would yield the same result in the vast majority of VIs.

Motivation / Use Case

Use cases:

1. Swapping lines of text
2. "Moving up" or "moving down" a line of text. This is equivalent to swapping some text with no text (empty string).

Proposed Solution / Feature Details

Proposed solution: See screenshot above.

Moving text up and down is a great feature! I would def use this.

@eyesonvis since this is an UX change, do you see any problems if we implement this?

I understand the functionality, but can someone provide examples of how you'd use it?

I'm wondering if a drag-reorder UX paradigm would be more appropriate than swap buttons. (I'm not a fan of doing bubble sorts manually, lol.)
