Plot scale property

Dear All!!
I'm trying to represent different plots in a graph and I would like to keep the different scales associated with each plot visible in this unique graph. Is this possible? Is there any special graph indicator? Do I need to choose a specific property using the property node vi. of the graph?
I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon,
Best Regards,
Miren

You could add a second graph, or use the MIxed signal graph type.

How do you change the Number of Plots Shown property of a Waveform Chart at runtime?

Is there any possible way to change the Number of Plots Shown property
of a Waveform Chart at runtime? Thy Dynamic Stackplots example is
way to limited.....

There's a couple of ways to do this -
1. Manage the data going into the chart to only be what you want displayed
2. Use property nodes. Specifically, the Plot.Visible node. (LV 7 example attached).

[Bug?] Defer Panel Update not working when changing scale property

Hi,
I found that Defer Panel Update [when True] does not work properly when changing the scale fit property of an intensity graph.
Try the VI.
When Defer Panel Update is True, and you change the Numeric controls, the Intensity graph is not updated (as expected).
But now change the "Z Scale.Scale Fit" button and.... the Intensity graph is updated (only the Z-color, not the axis).
This looks to be a bug to me!

Hi Nicolas,
This indeed looks like a bug. I will do more research on it and file a bug report if it's not already filed. Thank you for posting this information!

How do I remove lines from plot using property nodes

I am displaying data on an XY Graph and want to actively change the plot using property nodes. I can add plot points and set there colour and understand using active plot, my problem is I can not get rid of the line. I have tried Plot.Linestyle but there is no option to completemy remove the line.
Anyone any clues
nice

To get rid of the line, set Plot interpolation = 0.

Plot scale association

is this possible:
I have a graph, it has multiple y-scales.... several on the left side of the graph and several on the right, I display only 2 at a time, it's basically a dual y-scale plot with selectable y-scales... I do this using property nodes and it works great. I have drop down menus with different plots, and these plots will pop up on the graph when selected.... ok here's my problem/question
is there a way to associate a plot with more than one y-scale?
I need to associate plots with 2 y-scales, one on the left and one on the right side of my plots
reason is because it's basically a custom graph with 2 drop down menus, the drop down menus has groups of plots in it... each of the 2 drop down menus contains the smae plots and each is associated with either the right side y-scales or left side y-scales... this makes it possible for various different combinations of plot vs plot on the graph... but not being able to associate a plot with both sides limits me
right now I can do
plot1 vs plot2
plot3 vs plot4
but can't do
plot1 vs plot3.... because I can't associate plot3 with y-scales on both sides of the graph
I hope this makes sense,
much thanks!

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking, but all of the statements below are true. Do they answer your question?
A plot must always be linked to exactly one scale
Many plots can be linked to one scale
One plot cannot be linked to more than one scale
A plot can be visible while it's scale is invisible
A plot can be invisible while it's scale is visible
You can always have extra scales that are not linked to any plots
a.lia-user-name-link[href="/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/88938"] {color: black;} a.lia-user-name-link[href="/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/88938"]:after {content: '';} .jrd-sig {height: 80px; overflow: visible;} .jrd-sig-deploy {float:left; opacity:0.2;} .jrd-sig-img {float:right; opacity:0.2;} .jrd-sig-img:hover {opacity:0.8;} .jrd-sig-deploy:hover {opacity:0.8;}

How does one change XY Graph Plot.Style property defaults OR Change the Properties od Individual Plots?

I have an XY graph with a variable (known) number of multiple plots. Because the number of plots can vary, the plot style is sometimes not what I want. I'm trying to use a property node in a for-loop to change the Plot.LineStyle, Plot.PointStyle, and Plot.Fill/PtColor properties for each of the plots in an XY graph. However, perhaps because the names are not static, the colors do not seem to be updating as I'd like, and I'm really unsure as to why this is happening. Strangely, the LineStyle and PointStyle do seem to be updating as I'd like.
Please see the attached ScatterColors.zip file which contains the main VI in question (SplitInGroupsScatterByOrder.vi) and two sub-VIs on which it depends. Thanks in advance for your help

Hello Pierre,
This dynamic color feature is still not present in 2009, much less 6.1. I have linked a discussion forum post here that discusses in detail a work around for addiing this functionality. While you may not be able to open their example VIs, the theory is described; such that, you may attempt to replicate in 6.1.
Hope this helps.

Multi Plot Interpolation Property

Hi
I'm showing multi plots in a XY Graph and want to set the interpolation of all plots to "Stepwise horizontal" but I only can change the interpolation of first plot. Any suggestion on how I can do this?

Hi Maryam,
All you have to do is set the active plot to the next plot, and then set the interpolation property for that plot. You can do it all using a single expanded property node, as I've shown in my attached VI.
Let me know if you have any questions or need anymore help.

Polar plot scale labels and background colour

Dear Labview Forum,
I am trying to create a polar plot. However when I put the polar
plot indicator on my front panel and wire up some data and parameter
control boxes, the scale labels are missing. See polar plot
basic.VI. Are the scale labels there or are they the same colour
(black) as the background and hence not visible?
When you compare this to the polar plot demo, the background is white and the scale labels are present.
How can I control the polar plot background colour parameter?
How can I control the scale label colour and visibility?
Regards,
Jamie

3D surface plot FillColor property node misinterpreting colorbox

Hello there,
I'm using the 3D parametric surface VI to plot a single data set. When I wire a colorbox to the FillColor property the 3D plot interprets green somewhat correctly but a selection of blue in the color box makes the plot orange and a selection of red makes the plot blue. The colors don't match up across most of the spectrum. Somehow the colorbox is being misinterpreted but I can't find any reason for it. I tried converting the U32 to different integer types and that didn't help. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks! (Please see attached JPG)

LV uses RGB colors.
CW uses BGR colors.
Break the U32 into its bytes and swap the R and B values.
See this thread for an example.

SCALE property in currency dimension

Hi
There is a propert attached to Currency dimension members named "SCALE".
Can anyone shed light with some example on usgae of this property as i could see o difference in data after making changes in scaling for this.

This can be used if you want data in that particular currency to be loaded as a scaled value. This may be useful for some locations where the exchange rate is millions of local currency units = 1 of the parent currency units. Turkish Lira or Korean Won to the USD dollar come to mind as examples, where each can be a very high numeric rate per USD. In these cases, you might scale Turkish Lira or Korean Won to 6 and load values for only those currencies in millions, but still load values for Euros in whole units (scaling = 0).

Polar plot scale numbers "truncated"

I have a strange problem when using the polar plot VI.
Labview 2012 latest SP, running on a cRIO9074. I'm running a servo motor for one revolution while measuring the runout on an armature using a linear position sensor.
The data looks good, but for some reason, the scale labels truncate after two decimals, no matter what I set the precision to. I'm sending it a cluster of two double precision arrays.
When I run the Labview example, it works fine I can change the number of decimals viewed to 10 if I need to. I've tried keeping everything the same as the example.
Any ideas?
See picture.
The sample VI works fine, (I can set the precision to 6 and I will see 6 decimal positions. )

Thanks for the response, Kurt. With the help of a colleague, we were able to determine that this behavior is only when the VI is running on the cRIO.
(I think it was called "Polar Plot Demo.vi", but yes the VI is "Polar Plot with Points Option.vi"
We verified this by running the example vi first from windows (works fine), then ran it on the cRIO. On the cRIO it truncates decimals depending upon what font size you use. If you use a REAL TINY font, it will include more decimals. When running in Windows, the graph appears to move left to accomodate for more decimal place. When running on the cRIO, it appears to cut the picture off on the right side.
Following is our setup, but as stated above, we sent the demo program to the cRIO (didn't use any I/O) and the problem occured.
We're using Labview 2012, latest updates applied.
Modules are:
NI-9411 to read an Ono Sokki position sensor (quadature output from two channels, resolution is .0001 mm.
Ethercat set up using the "getting started" manual for the NI supplied AKD servo drive and motor.
All hardware works fine and data collected looks good. Test is to turn motor and collect servo position and linear encoder position.
Data has 4 decimal places coming in.

Multiple Plots & Scales On 1 Graph

Hi
In one waveform graph how we can plot two data with different y-axis i.e.. Multiple plots in one graph
thanks

Hi Husssey,
"right-click" is your friend!
- Right-click the Y axis and select "duplicate axis" to create an additional Y axis. Now right-click that new axis and select "swap side" for your convenience...
- Show the plot properties. Right-click the plot and select your "Y axis" to attach the plot to...

LabVIEW 2009 3D Plot has no Loose Fit property and Axis AutoScale does not function at run time ?

I cannot find a Loose Fit property for the new 3D plots (waterfall, ribbon) in LV 2009. As a result, my data range of 1402 to 1407 ends up on a Z axis range of 1400 to 1500 and looks like a flat line.
The Z Active Axis properties Range Maximum and Range Minimum can be used to set the range but the Z Axis Autoscale property had to be changed to False using either the front panel Plot Properties at edit time or using the Range Auto Scale property at run time on the block diagram. It could not be changed at run time by popping up on either the plot border or on the Color Palette.
In edit mode, R-clicking on the Color Palette's AutoScale Z did not make that property toggle or stick and did not change its function.
At run time, there are two AutoScale Z selections shown. One along with the X and Y scales and another by itselfat the bottom. Again, clicking the one that is part of the X and Y axis did not make its setting stick and did not have an effect. What does happen though is that the other AutoScale Z shown at the bottom of the Color Pallete popup does toggle its state. But clicking on the AutoScale Z shown at the bottom does not toggle its state.
The grey border region of the plot area contains at run time, popup setting for X,Y and Z AutoScale that likewise have no effect.
Or am I missingsomething ?

Steve,
you should be able to successfully change the scales based on the min and max values as long as you explicitly turn off autoscale. In your program, I just right-clicked the Range Auto Scale property selected "change to write", then made a control so that I could set the value myself. Clean up the broken wires, and the program runs like it's supposed to - resetting it's scale range:
is this the result you wanted?

Stacked Plot y-axis property access.

STACKED PLOT Y-AXIS
I have a stacked waveform chart showing four plots
Each plot correctly appears on a different sub-plot
I can use the set active plot property to loop through the four plots and change their names, visibility etc.
I can also read which is their active y scale index which corresponds to the plot index (i.e.both 0-3)
BUT
When I try and change a y scale property (e.g. label>text) it only ever changes the top sub plot label
I have tried forcing the active Y-scale index also to no avail.
I have also tried an overlay plot with 4 different y-axis and have the same problem.
HOW DO I SET TEH INDIVIDUAL Y-SCALE PROPERTIES ON A STACKED PLOT?
Attachments:
stackedplot_yaxis_edit.zip ‏22 KB

I made 2 small modifications to your VI, take a look at the attached.
First you needed to set the active Y scale rather then setting the index. But more importantly the property node you are using to set the values is linked to the wrong graph.
Let me know if the attached does what you where looking for.

Flash content loaded in IFRAME gets disappeared while applying transform:scale css property

I have an iframe loaded with a flash content inside, and i have to resize the iframe while browser window width changes. So i tried changing transform:scale() property on different media query cut-offs. But unfortunately firefox makes the flash content disappear while applying transform-scale property. Is there any way to overcome this?

Sorry, i don't know how to visualize this. I can paste a sample code here, will it help?
'''HTML:'''
<iframe width="900px" class="iframeStyle" align="middle" height="1200px" frameborder="0" src="http://linktoFlashContainingHtml.html"> </iframe>
'''CSS'''
.iframeStyle {
transform:scale(0.5);
While applying this tranform:scale property, iframe get scaled but flash content inside the page loaded in IFRAME disappears
