Simple question: Can you input an array of strings directly into your plot legend instead of "Plot 0", "Plot 1"......?

I have an array of channel names for a simple vi I wrote and I want to input them into the plot legend.  I typically use ring controls to allow different users to select what they want to see, but beyond 3 or 4 it gets confusing.  Is there a way to take an array of strings and input them directly into the legend string slots using a property node?  I have spent hours searching to no avail.
Thanks!!
Adam

Yes, of course there is! Try this:

  • Can you parse an array of string characters into separate arrays?

    Hello,
    I didn't see anything directly related to my question, so I'll go ahead and post it.  I'm looking to parse an array of hex characters into three separate arrays for parallel Color to RGB conversion in LabView.  Ideally, after importing an image, I would have liked to use the Color to RGB conversion for the 24-bit pixmap (in hex digit format), but apparently, you can only do this for single number conversions...not arrays.  Another way is what I have mentioned above, which would be to parse each element's red, green, and blue # into three separate arrays as shown below:
    Original Array:   aa11ff     225599
                              cc4488   bbcc11
    Array 1: aa  22
                 cc   bb
    Array 2: 11   55
                  44   cc
    Array 3:  ff    99
                  88   11
    I could then do a parallel conversion of these arrays from hex to numeric and get the desired result.  However, I'm having trouble finding a function that will do this.  So I would like to ask if a function like this does exist and if so, what is it?  I should note that I'm trying to avoid using two while loops because of time constraints (using the program for in-situ measurements), and we do not own, nor are we looking to purchase the $$$ vision/video package that NI makes.

    Nevermind.  I found an adequate way.

  • Can you be more productive with increased visibility into your data?

    P3SI has developed a new data lineage application that gives OBIEE developers and architects instant access to their data lineage--both obi and informatica layers. We've seen amazing productivity gains in development, troubleshooting, implementations, and upgrades. Simply put, with instant access to seeing your data lineage, it's like having a map of data at your fingerprints. If you're interested in joining a webinar, please contact me: Ed Bang 510-789-0298 ext. 316, [email protected]
    Do you use a data lineage application? I would love to hear any questions or comments.

  • I forgot my security question can you help?

    I forgot my apple security question can you help

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Hi. In simple language, can you please tell me the best way to protect my important and numerous files - music, images and docs - from being lost; in the event the computer crashes and data is irretrievable?

    I have a lot of photos and music, plus important personal files. In simple terms, can you recommend how I should go about backing these up and ensuring they are not lost through some computer malfunction?
    I need to understand the uses and merits of iCloud, Time Machine and on/off site external drives. I don't really want to invest money, time or new external hardware to achieve this. It can't be too labour intensive, either.
    I have an external drive, which I last backed up perhaps two years ago. It is old, it requires wiring, and it sits next to to the desktop, so would be useless in case of fire (god forbid), say.
    At the same time, I am concerned about cloud storage, and putting personal info and files into anonymous server farms, and the hands of anonymous organisations/people.
    Call me a luddite, but I suspect these are fairly standard concerns, and I can find simple answers with a simple Google search.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    This is what Apple has to say:
    Report on Government Information Requests
    "... our business does not depend on collecting personal data. We have no interest in amassing personal information about our customers."
    This one concerns iOS, but its approach to privacy is the same:
    http://images.apple.com/ipad/business/docs/iOS_Security_Feb14.pdf
    A couple stories about one Google alternative:
    DuckDuckGo: the plucky upstart taking on Google with secure searches
    DuckDuckGo: The privacy search ruffling Google's feathers
    NSA scandal delivers record numbers of internet users to DuckDuckGo
    Why Traffic To These Google Alternatives Is Soaring
    One of several concerns about Google Chrome, for instance:
    Chrome Bugs Allow Sites to Listen to Your Private Conversations
    Google's Business Model: YOU Are the Product
    "You are not a Google customer. You are a Google product."
    Those aren't just anyone's worthless opinions. Those are also the exact words of a federal magistrate dismissing a case regarding privacy intrusion involving the plaintiff's Android phone:
    "... With little or no revenue from its users, Google still manages to turn a healthy profit by selling advertisements within its products that rely in substantial part on users’ personal identification information (“PII”). As some before have observed, in this model, the users are the real product."
    I understand you didn't ask primarily about Google, but you expressed the very understandable desire for privacy, yet don't seem to mind using Google for search. Those aren't reconcilable sentiments.

  • How can you import pictures from the iphoto app to your mac book pro into iphoto on a mac book pro using mavericks?

    I've tried to look this up on the app, and it tells me to use the iTunes file sharing and I can see anything with this trying to use both. I'm trying to keep my pictures in chronological order. Does in know how I can use this? Any help I would greatly appreciate. Thank you!

    OK. This is two separate issues. To import pictures on your iPhone into your MBP, you can use iPhoto or the Image Capture app (in the Applications folder).
    To use iPhoto, connect your iPhone to your Mac with its USB cable & launch iPhoto. Your iPhone will be listed it in the "Devices" panel on the left. Choose it & you will get a window where you can import all or selected photos as either "split events" or as a single event. If you need help with this, try opening iPhoto's built-in help & selecting the "Import Photos" item. That will open the Import photos from iPhone or other mobile phone help topic. Expand the Import photos from iPhone section & study it. It should answer all your questions about this better than I can!
    To use the Image Capture app, you connect the iPhone & select it just like above. The app has several options for importing images, but what you may find useful if you do not want to import directly into iPhoto is that you can just drag any of the iPhone's displayed items onto the desktop or into a folder like you would any other file & they will be copied to that location.
    As for organization of items in iPhoto, there are four ways they can be grouped for display (by event, by photo, by face, & by place). All except by faces offers a "By date" sort choice in the iPhoto View > Sort Photos menu item.

  • Can you turn off apple tv and just watch your regular tv?

    Can you turn off apple tv and just watch your regular tv?

    I have an LG TV - I am still trying to work thru all this but on mine, I select TV on the TV remote and it takes me back to cable. Then when I want to return to Apple TV, I select INPUT on the remote and then HDMI. Took me right back to Apple TV.
    (But I had already configured the TV for an external HDMI device during set up.)

  • Why has iTunes seperated a album which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

    Why has iTunes seperated a album into indevidual songs, which I have copied over from my external hard drive into iTunes? How can you pull all the songs back together into one album again?

    Quick answer:  Select all the tracks on the album, File > get info, and either give them all a single "album artist", or check the "compilation" flag (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085).
    If these are from multiple-CD sets you may also need to enter the appropriate information in the disc number fields.  If they are not a multiple CD set you still need to make sure the disc number fields are set correctly or all empty.

  • Can you tell if someone is logging on to your computer remotely?

    can you tell if someone is logging on to your computer remotely?
    can you tell is someone has downloaded dodgy programs to maybe spy on you?

    you can effectively change your system password if you think this is happening. if you change it, they shouldn't have access to your computer however you never know.
    some things that will give it away are deliberate mouse movements when you're not using the computer, the camera on your mbp to flash a green light meaning it's taking a picture or applications like iTeleport connect and other VNC type clients running in activity monitor.
    There is an app called "hidden" that will trace your information (it's used to recover a stolen computer) but it's tell tail sign would be the camera turning on and off unexpectedly.
    what makes you think someone is spying on you?

    Of course. Why wouldn't you be able to? All you're doing is waiting on iMovie. Facebook isn't doing anything.
