Line + Scatter on 3D graph

Hi all,
I'm using LV 2009 SP1 which has the new 3D graph helper VIs.
I want to plot a 3D scatter and 3D line (separate) data onto the same 3D graph and set different plot properties etc. I can't figure out how to do this using the new helper VIs. Should I be using these?
I've read some of Altenbach's threads which state that I just need to change the plot ID but I can't merge different helper VI outputs.
Is there a way of plotting 3D segments (lines) by giving the start and end (X,Y,Z) points?
Thanks,
Battler.

Hi Battler,
I would take a look at 3D picture controls to do what you want. Here is a link to an example that I did a while back.

Remove shades behind lines and bars in Graphs

Hello there, new here on the forum.
I'm using obiee 11.
Is there a way to remove the grey shades behind lines and bars in graphs?
Both curious to know wether that's possible in one graph or make it standard for all graphs.
Thanx!

Try this
Removing drop-shadow effect on graphs
By default, whenever a chart is created, there is a drop-shadow effect on it. This property makes it difficult to read some of the
charts. In order to turn it off this property, edit the file dvt-graph-skin.xml from the following location on your
installation.
\InstallHome\Oracle_BI1\bifoundation\web\msgdb\s_blafp\viewui\chart
Edit the <Graph> tag, add the attribute visualEffects="NONE". (Do not remove the rest of the contents in the file). After
editing, the contents should look like this.
<Graph visualEffects="NONE">
<SliceLabel>

<ViewFormat decimalDigit="2" decimalDigitUsed="false"/>
</SliceLabel>
</Graph>
Save the file.

Possible to put limit lines on an intensity graph?

Hi,
I have LV8.5 and was wondering if there is a way to put limit lines on an intensity graph. Something line an unfilled rectangle or circle that sits on top of the intensity graph.
Thanks,
--Ryan

You can use the "PlotImages.Front" property to apply any picture function over the graph area.
Check e.g. the example program "Graph Plot Area Images". While it uses an XY graph, the intensity graph would work the same. See how far you get.

I would like to plot two lines with an xy graph in realtime

I understand how to plot in real time with an xy graph appending to an array, but I would like to simply put a line so I can see when my first plot crosses a certain value on the y-axis, say at like y=30. So I would like to know how it is you can plot two lines in real time. I'll put in my vi so you can take a look at what I have so far. On my vi the array is shortened to contain only 5 values so as not to take up memory.

I like the class/program to be called from java code and not
from command prompt to plot points or bar graphs.
Please, no vendor recommendations.
I dont have the $ to purchase.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

I checked the web site of JFreeChart and its document
says to get premium service, it requires $.
I dont really have the $ to purchase that software.
It's a vendor product!Just to clarify, JFreeChart is free software, it is licensed under the GNU LGPL. You get the complete source code, including lots of demos, Javadoc HTML pages, an install document in PDF format, and access to the support forum for absolutely no charge. You don't have to pay a fee to unlock special features in the software, everything is there in the free download.
As a way of funding the project, we sell a JFreeChart Developer Guide which includes a lot more information about using JFreeChart. But it is only the documentation we sell, not the software.

Line / scatter plot axis problems

I'm trying to create a graph to show the percentage of revenue that is generated by some percentage of classes offered, a la an 80-20 graph. Sample XML:
<DATA>
<RevenueByClass>
<REVENUEBYCLASS_ROW>
<CLASS_NUMBER>1</CLASS_NUMBER>
<PERCENT_OF_CLASSES>.24</PERCENT_OF_CLASSES>
<PERCENTAGE>4.67</PERCENTAGE>
</REVENUEBYCLASS_ROW>
<REVENUEBYCLASS_ROW>
<CLASS_NUMBER>2</CLASS_NUMBER>
<PERCENT_OF_CLASSES>.48</PERCENT_OF_CLASSES>
<PERCENTAGE>6.83</PERCENTAGE>
</REVENUEBYCLASS_ROW>
</RevenueByClass>
</DATA>
Ideally, I want a line graph (which I can make without any trouble) with PERCENT_OF_CLASSES showing up on the X-axis and PERCENTAGE on the Y-axis. My problem is that, because it's a line graph, BI Beans treats the X-axis as ordinal rather than a data axis, so the axis labels are completely haywire. I would like a way to change the line graph so that the axis labels are the same as the Y-axis, preferably every 10% or 20%. Skipping doesn't work, because the total number of classes can vary so the exact percentages can vary as well.
If there is no way to do that, I could try to make it as a scatter plot; however, it's not built into the wizard and I've had little success trying to build it by hand. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately it seems that while most chart types can cope with data in rows, 'scatter' needs data to be in columns. If you create a table the transpose of how you described it, then click Listings and command-click 200, you should be able to create the correct scatter chart. Note that you'll probably then want to click the numbers on the x-axis of the chart (e.g. 80) until a narrow box appears which contains just those numbers. Then, in the chart inspector 'Axis' dialogue enter the value 50 in 'Value Axis Format':'Minimum', and maybe chnge the number of steps to suit (here 3). You might want to repeat this for the y-axis with different values.

I want to display the above data in line stacked bar graph format where the
#Enrolled will be in Stacked Bar by Study -Site ( Y axis)
Planned Subject should represent a single line at 50 ( Y axis)
Group by Year and Month ( X- Axis)
Study excluded ( Study will be selected from dashboard prompt)
I'm getting the stacked view of Study Site ID correctly but I want Single Line for Planned Subject .
Currently I'm getting multiple line .
Eg for 2001/03 I'm getting line at 50 in yellow colour
for 2001/04 I'm getting a line at 150 in different color since it has 3 Study-Site ID's But the desired output is Single Line at 50
As per 11g doc this is not possible because there is some upgradation in the nature of the graph
" Stacked line-bar graphs in which 2 or more measures are shown as lines on the same axis and are not stacked in 10g are stacked in 11g."

Can grid lines on a XY Graph be made dashes from solid

I'm using the SPC toolset. When the control limits are plotted (in red) if the control limit is placed over a grid line, the color of the control limit changes becoming much less visible. If I can make the grid lines dashed, at least a portion of the control limits will remain red for visibility. I can find no way to change the grid lines other than color.

You could try grabbing a screen print of the graph and edit it in photoshop or similar to look the way you want. Then customise the control, paint it transparent and use your image as its background. I have done something similar to make a psychrometric chart (attached)

Grid lines on PDA XY graph

Has anyone found a way to get grid lines onto a PDA XY graph? Is graphic overlay a possibility? Am I missing something obvious (like it can't be done)?

I haven't tried changing the line style - yet.
I did try overlaying lines from the decorations palette, but when I ran the gui, the lines got shoved to the back under the graph. Then I thought I would make the graph transparent, but when I ran it it turned black. Basically, the same results when I tried overlaying a transparent png (after installing png support of course).

Vertical grid lines and Dates on Graph

When I use date values on the x-axis for a graph, the only vertical grid lines that appear in the graph are at the year boundary. For example, if I was showing data for 3 years, I get 3 vertical grid lines; one at each January.
How can I get vertical grid lines at each month?
It will work if I convert the date to character, but then I lose the ability of Oracle Reports to fill in the tick marks for missing dates (say, if there isn't any data between January and March, the graph will still show a label for February).

Hi, Ravens Fan.
Thanks for your reply.
Now, the main loop has a wait statement, but the problem remains. I'm using LabView 2009, and I didn't see this behaviour in the previous version, LabView 8.6.
I send you back the uptaded program, and two snapshots as well:
- snapshot 1: just after pressing "Run", "increment" value takes "maximum" value; due to this, there's only one text marker, at "12:00" (there should be one major grid line and one text marker every 10 minutes as "increment" value is set to 600 before entering the while loop);
- snapshot 2: when pannning, "minor increment" takes "maximum" value, and due to this, vertical grid lines don't show any more (there should be one minor grid line every 5 minutes as "minor increment" is set to 300 before entering the while loop).
Regards,
Francisco

There's nothing you can do short of changing the data--or the scaling of the x axis. What you're seeing is an effect of the y-axis scaling.

Create line from x-y graph live data

I am sweeping from -1000V to 1000V I am getting a characteristic
curve I(V), I need the slope of the middle part of my curve. I can do it on a signal
graph but not on a x-y graph. I need to do it on the x-y so I won’t loose the
voltage values.
Anyone can help me create a line from 2 specific points from a live measurement
on a x-y graph?

Maybe you could do something along the lines of my earlier example. It does a linear regression of all points on an xy graph between two cursors.

How can I calculate the area bounded by a large number of intersecting lines displayed on a graph?

Can I adapt 'particle (or blob) analysis' to a graph, or would I be better off saving my graph as an image and using IMAQ VI's to do particle analysis on the image?

Almost wish they some sort of a whiteboard feature on this forum. 'Cause this would be easiest to explain with some dynamic pictures.
Any way, to calculate the area "shared" by two or more functions you subtract the areas. Piecewise: calculate the area of fuction 1 by integrating over range of intersection, calculate the area of fuction 2 by integrating over range of intersection, subtract Area 1 from Area 2 and take the absolute value.
If more than 2 functions, start with the two functions with the greatest area of overlap, and work towards the smallest.
This is assuming continuous polynomial functions comprise the intersections and you know the points of intersection. If they are simple linear functions you might be able to do some geometric additions (a
dd up all the trapizoidal/triangle areas formed by consecutive points of intersection).
This is the robust works-for-most-cases solution, your particular instance may provide short cuts, but no details were given that might provide clues to those short cuts.
Good luck.
