BUG in the Graph/Char​t scale management (one more)

Question

Several problems affecting the dynamic management of X and Y scales have already been reported. Here is another one detected a few days ago : a repeated write of a constant value to the ScaleMarker.Position property node moves the scale away...
The attached vi illustrate this behaviour : Run the vi. The scale.Marker position is read and passed to a control. Then, the control is read repeatedly in a loop. Change the value of the control and watch the scale run away.
Tested on LV 7.1, on W2K and MacOS platforms

Answer 1

Hello Chilly Charly,
Thank you for this information. I tested your program and I agree that this behaviour seems strange.
Your message has been sent to the NI R&D and you will be informed of any evolution.
I modified your program to have better execution result: I add Event structure to change the value of property node when the user changes this value in the front panel.
See the attached file.
But in some cases, the problem still occurs.
Thank you again and happy LV programming.
