Create From Blocks

Create 'From' blocks with same appearance and properties of 'Goto' blocks selected in the model

Description

Select your Goto Simulink block, right click and select "create From blocks".
 From block will be created with same color, orientation, dimensions, font and name of corresponding Goto block.
If you have created this block by copy&paste it's probable that block name doesn't correspond to its tag, so block name will be changed according to the tag.
If one or more corresponding From blocks already exist their appearance will be updated, but no other blocks will be created.

Great stuff. I'll be making regular use of this functionality! A couple suggestions for the future... I often want multiple From blocks derived from a single Goto. You might want to modify the script to permit creation of multiple Gotos (incrementing the name as you do so). You also might want to have the size of an existing From block be increased/shrunk to match the Goto block (the same way you change the font, color, etc).

Very useful. Makes From/Goto blocks much easier to use. I also learned that you can customize the context menu. I did not not know that.

Works great.
