Change plot visibility from legend

Is there a way to change the plot visibility on an xy graph from the legend control similar to how you can click on the icon of the plot and change the color, line style, line width, etc.
There isn't a option in the drop down list for this but maybe it can be programatically added to the drop down menu?
Thanks

Hmmmm....Dennis is right (and  by the way, it's Matt ).  However, there maybe a more involved solution to this - if you can define the location of the legend, maybe you could use a hotkey that, when pressed while hovering over the legend entry changes the visibility of the plot.  But, like I said this is pretty involved.
30 plots, though?  That makes my brain hurt.  Is there some way to break the number of plots out or collapse the number of plots?  From a human interaction standpoint, a graph containing 30 plots just doesn't seem very useful  - it's just too many to visualize and make sense of.  (And the reason I am guessing you are seeking this functionality).

  • Waveform Plot Name in Legend Reverts to default even if I change it with a Property node

    I have a waveform chart where I am trying to name the plots different titles, so that they appear in the plot legend with a meaningful name, rather than 'Plot 1', 'Plot 2', etc.
    However, no matter what I do, if I try to change plot 0's name to anything, the plot name changes for a split second, and then reverts to the name that it originally had.  I can succesfully control the names of the other plots, but not plot zero.  I have enclosed the VI with the graph control, which I cut and pasted from another VI. 
    It seems that the properties of this control (though it is not  a custom control) are set, and that these settings take precedence over the Propery Node Instructions.  Is this a bug, or am I missing something.
    Try it for yourself.

    Ignore attributes help says;
    If FALSE (default), the plot names in the plot legend automatically adapt to the plot names in the dynamic or waveform data attributes. If TRUE, the plot names do not adapt to the dynamic or waveform data attributes. Change this property to TRUE if you want to change the plot names. This property applies only to graphs and charts with dynamic or waveform data.

  • Plot visibility detection

    I have two graphs and allow the user considerable flexiblity in what is being displayed. The plot Plot Visibility Checkbox in the Plot Legend is a very nice way to turn on and off temporarily one particular plot.
    Is there any way other than polling the Plot Visible property to detect when one of those boxes is clicked?  I want to change the visibility of the same plot on both graphs simultaneously.

    I never worked with these, but there does seem to be a trick which gets you most of the way there - the control has a Plot Attribute Changed event which is fired when one of these is clicked. The event itself doesn't seem to include data about this specific property, but it does include the index and reference of the plot, so you can then just read its property directly.
    Works only in LV2012 (I came with this idea yesterday and checked it in 2011SP1 - didn't work).

  • Show different plots on chart legend

    I was wondering if there's anyway to control which plots show up on the plot legend.  I have created a graph that can display different plots (by making different sets of plots visible and the rest no visible) but I can't figure out a way for the plot legend to change with me... I see property nodes to manipulate it's height and position... I can use property nodes to show more plots on the legend, but it will always start at the 1st plot... if I have 2 sets of plot
    set 1 = plot 1, plot 2, plot 3
    set 2 = plot 4, plot5, plot 6
    and I choose to make only set 2 visible
    I would like the legend to show plot 4, plot 5 and plot 6 (without showing plots 1,2, and 3).... but I can't figure out how to do this, is it possible?
    much thanks!

    It is the property name plot.name. Be careful how you fill the name in because the order that is displayed. If you make 3 invisible but want to change the name for 4, I am not sure, but I suspect that it will change the plot name 4.

  • Wifi printer not visible from wireless devices after becoming a wired printer

    Lexmark S515 printer: Wireless worked fine for about a year, now it doesn't stay connected to my EA-4500 router (I suspect the printer wifi radio is flaking out).
    So I hooked it up via ethernet cable to my EA4500 router.
    Now, I can only access ther printer (static IP: 192.168.1.101) from other wired devices on the EA-4500; can't access it from  wirelessly connected devices.
    Anyone know what I should change to get it to be visible from wired and wireless devices on my home network?

    Try to check what's the IP Addresses of your wireless devices. Powercycle your whole network - unplug for 10 seconds and plug them back again. Start with the modem > router > printer > computers/wireless devices. You can also try connecting your printer directly to your wireless laptop and check if it can detect the printer.

  • [Solved] Changing tab visibility

    Hi all,
    I have some problems with Forms6i and I'm hopping someone could help me...
    I have a form with 3 tabs. In the 1st tab I have several fields and depending on the value of one of those fields I want my 3rd tab to be visible or invisible.
    My only problem with this is that after the situation: invisible -> visible, it doesn't change back to invisible.
    I search it on the net and found something similarly to this but with text boxes and I tried the same resolutions on the tab but the properties aren't the same.
    If anyone could help me, I appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ana

    I did what you suggested, but still isn't working:
    1 - created a simple procedure:
    PROCEDURE SET_TAB_VISIBILITY (
    P_TAB_NAME      IN VARCHAR2,
    P_VISIBLE      IN BOOLEAN
    ) IS
    BEGIN
    if P_VISIBLE then
    SET_TAB_PAGE_PROPERTY(P_TAB_NAME,visible, property_true);     
    else
    SET_TAB_PAGE_PROPERTY(P_TAB_NAME,visible, property_false);     
    end if;     
    END;
    2 - deleted the post-change event that I previously created;
    3 - on data block level, in the post-query event called the procedure:
    SET_TAB_VISIBILITY('FILTROS.PED_SERV', :JE_UBS_IP_MULTI_MESSAGES.event = 'PS');
    4 - and on item level, in the when-validate-item also called the procedure with the same code.
    I put some messages on the post-query and when-validate-item events to check things out and noticed that when I have something like 2 records and in the 1st one the tab should be invisible and in the 2nd, visible, when I go from record 1 to 2, it changes the visibility correctly and shows my test message. But when I navigate from record 2 to 1, it doesn’t do anything. Not even my message. It seems that it is ignoring the event.
    Is this normal behavior?
    Thank you

  • Use drop-down menu to control plot visibility

    Hello everyone,
    I have simple data reading program that loads and parses a text file containing tab-delimited data. Currently, they are parsed and plotted in 7 separate graphs. I am trying to reduce this to 3 graphs where the user can select from a drop-down menu what they would like to be displayed. 
    Eg. Graph 1 would have choices data A, B and C; Graph 2 would have data D, E, F and etc
    The user would select on the drop-down box data A on graph 1 and data F on graph 2. 
    Is there an easy way to this? I have read some ideas about plot visibility.
    Thanks
    Thomas

    Each plot on a chart has its own Plot Visible property. One easy solution is to graph all the data, then set the visibility property for each line based on the selection from the drop-down menu. To set visibility for an individual plot, first set the Active Plot property to the plot that you want, then set the Visible property. You can do this in a single property node; make sure that the Active Plot property is at the top (property nodes execute in top-to-bottom order, and can be mixed read and write).

  • Master Page updated , but changes are visible only for that Page(site) alone ?

    I updated v4.master in SharePoint designer to add a bread crum navigation control
     <div class="BreadCrumbWrap s4-notdlg"> 
           <asp:SiteMapPath runat="server" SiteMapProvider="SPContentMapProvider" id="ContentMap"   CssClass="BreadCrumbStyle" PathSeparator="&gt;"> 
           <CurrentNodeStyle CssClass="BreadCurrentNode" /> 
           <PathSeparatorStyle CssClass="BreadPathSeparator" />   
            </asp:SiteMapPath> 
          </div>
    But the changes are visible only in that site. all other sites dont have bread crum control,
    I added the bread crum in header section, and also in page layout section, but there is no change (bread crum navigation only visible in that site alone)
    Why ?
    I always thought master page edits will be visible in all sites of a site collection,
    Am i going wrong some where (My site collection has about 30-35 sites, and new sites are created every now and then )
    Please help
    rn

    If the publishing features are turned on then the master pages for all the sites in the site collection are pulled from the master page gallery of the root site.  But if Publishing hasn't been enabled then each site uses the v4.master in its own master
    page gallery.  It sounds like you haven't enabled the Publishing Infrastructure site collection feature and Publishing Site Feature in the root site of your site collection.

  • How to change the visible length in screen painter?

    Hi Guys,
    we have field in screen which is type to ATWRT but the visible length is set to 11. ATWRT is 30 char.
    Please advise on How to change the visible length in screen painter to make it 30?
    When I try to edit the defined length from 11 to 30. It wont allow me to.
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi,
    Try the below method:
    Goto Screen Painter -> Double click on Input-Output field for ATWRT another screen will appear with attributes of Input Output field -> Increase the Visible length Value there. (Option of visible length is below the Name and Text attribut of Attribute windiw.)
    If the Visible length field isn't allowing change then declare it as a Char type instead of taking the DataType for Data Dictionary.
    Thanks,

  • Changing IView visibility on runtime

    Is it possible to change iview visibility inside page on runtime? (before navigation to this page for inst)

    Not sure what you mean exactly...
    Perhaps you're looking for the Display State property of iViews:
    Defines display state of iView/page in run time: Mandatory=locked in page; Visible=displayed in page; Available=hidden from page, but can be added by end user
    Here is a detailed list of iView properties:

  • My daughter has just changed her phone from an iphone to a nokia but when i send her a message it still comes up as an i message and she doesnt receive it?

    my daughter has changed her phone from an iphone to a nokia but kept the same number but when i send her a message from my iphone it still comes up as an i messsage and she doesnt receive it can anybody tell me how to fix this please

    She needs to remove that device from the iMessage database, or if she still has the phone, she can go into Settings, Messages and turn off iMessage. If she still has the phone, she just needs to put the SIM back in for a couple of minutes to turn that off.
    If she does not have the phone any more, she will need to go to her Support Profile, if she registered the phone and delete the phone from the profile.

  • Why am I unable to change text color from black in LR5 book module?

    Why am I unable to change text color from black in LR5 Book Module?

    I'm assuming you clicked on the color patch besides the word <Character> to open the color picker window.
    At the right side of this window there is a vertical bar that has 2 horizontal black lines at the bottom.
    This is actually a slider. Pull it upwards with the color picker and color will appear in the window.

  • Help reqd on Changing the Valid from "date"  for both BOM & Routing

    Is there any process in CC01 or ECM???....
    pls reply me in detail step format (step by step analysis)....
    I wrongly created in CS01 and CA01 as 05.10.2007 as my valid from date instead of 01.10.2007.....
    How to change to my actual one......
    I dont know how to change it exactly.....as im beginner in SAP...pls take this into consideration...and post ur replies imm.
    Pls reply me in detail....will be rewarded at the end while closing this issue.
    thanks & regards
    sankar

    Dear Sankarbabu,
    IF there's no setting for Date Check in OS54 - Engineering Change Management
    Control Data,then you can create a change number with past dates,and also to
    use the same one for changing BOM.
    Tell me one thing you are saying you want to use ECM.Was the earlier one
    created without BOM was created without an ECN?
    See already if you have created your BOM with an ECN,then remove the date
    check setting which I have mentioned in OS54.
    Now goto T code CC02 ,enter the Change number and give the valid from date as
    01.10.2007.
    After that check in CS03 whether this date(01.10.2007)is getting reflected or not.
    I'm sure this will solve your problem.
    Regards
    Mangal

    Use iTunes on the PC to restore the iPod, or install XPlay on the PC without changing the format. Restoring the iPod will erase everything on it.
