Write bounds attribute in a XY graph property node

Hello,
i want to write the bounds size using the XY graph property node or something else. I want to determine the bound XY graph size. It is possible?
Thanks!!

  • Xy Graph property node:apply to all plots

    I have an xy graph with multiple plots and am using property nodes to give each plot a different color.  My problem is that i would like to set the "point style" for every plot to be the same, in other words: create a default point style that differs from the XY graph default.

    Don't forget Kudos for Good Answers, and Mark a solution if your problem is solved.

    You can do this statically on the "Plots" tab of the graph properties dialog box.  You can also get a property node to alter this dynamically by right-clicking on the graph and selecting  Create >> Property Node >> Plot >> Point Style.

  • How do I configure the mixed signal graph property node to set the plot names

    I have a mixed signal graph displaying digital and analog data in two groups.
    I would like to programmatically set the names of individual plots i.e. rather that the digital graph displaying 'Digital 0->Line 0'  I would like to set it to 'Signal 1'  in the vi.
    How do I do this?
    Probably via the property node but I cant get this to work without errors?  (i.e. i cant find the right combination of node arguments to set.)
    Also,  I can set the names of the plots of the component waveforms programmatically, but when I bundle the plots together to form the mixed signal graph, the plot names are reset to the mixed signal graph default values. Can this behaviour be turned off?

    What are you doing? You need to select the plot first and then set the name, like this:

  • Is there a line style descrepancy with xy graph property nodes?

    Hello.
    I am attempting to display mutliple bar graphs in a single XY graph control. To color-code and label each one, I set up a for-loop and call each active plot to set the color, plot name, etc. The problematic thing is that when I define the vertical bar graph type by-hand, at the control on the front panel, I have 5 vertical plot style options. The fifth one produces the best results. When I try to set this property node in the block diagram, I have only three vertical plot style options. Is there a way around this?
    Appreciate any fedback.
    Best,
    Mike

    Hi Mike,
    I read the property node for the bar plots (after having setting it by hand to the one you like) and it appears that the value of that bar plot is 8. I also set it to a different bar plot by and hand then wrote "8" to the property node and that does seem to change it to the last  (left to right) vertical bar graph. I am running LV 7.1. If you look at the context help it does seem to indicate that the only values for vertical bar graphs are 1-3 but try writing "8" and see what happens.
    Cheers,

  • I'am having problem with a graph property node by using format & precision

    I would like to display an amount of data in a waveform graph and to choose the X scale to display absolute time (whitout date information) or scaled decimal value.
    Absolute time is a must because the scaling should reflect the acquisition time and not only a value in hour, minute and second.
    Using the property node I can choose between 10 differents formats (0-Decimal, 1-Scientific, 2-Engineering, 3-Binary, 4-Octal, 5-Hexadecimal, 6-Relative Time, 7-Time and Date, 8-SI, and 9-Custom).
    Format 7 - Time and Date should be a good choice but LabVIEW set automatically system time AND system date without any possibilities to change anything.
    Trying format 9 - Custom ends everytime with error 1077 (invalid property value).
    Any help to explain me how to use the format Custom or to give me a solution to switch between time (no date) and decimal scaling is appreciate.
    Thank 

    In addition to the Xscale.Format property node, you also need to set the XScale.FormatString (see a little below the Format entry).
    Use %<%.0X>T as format string.

  • X-y graph property node

    I am looking for a means by which to programmatically turn on and off some of the plots in an x-y graph.
    I have the code that plots a series of thermocouple inputs to an x-y multigraph where the x-value is time. Using a property node I can wire in a Boolean to turn the "plot visible" input TRUE or FALSE. This works for the first plot on the graph, but I can't make it work for the rest of the plots. Creating multiple property nodes and assigning different plot ID numbers to the Plot Y. Scale Index input doesn't work, they're just ignored. I can't even get multiple plots to turn off if I wire multiple plot ID numbers into the same property node (using multple Plot Y Scale Index inputs).
    Is there a trick to turning plots on and off in a multiple plot x-y graph?
    thank you.

  • Linking property nodes to two cursors in one graph

    Hello,
    I have got one graph with 2 cursors. And I need to by able to set the coordinates of each cursor by using property nodes. However, if I click right button mouse button - create - property node - cursor - cursor position - -then there are only 3 possibilities "All elements", "X", Y" which links only to one of the cursors (actually I don`t know which). How is possible to link 2 cursors`s position property nodes to 2 cursors in one graph?
     Thank you a lot for discussion.

    Solved!

    Also, if you have more than a few cursors, you can make the code more scalable by using an array of positions and a FOR loop as follows.
    Now the code automatically adapts th the number of cursors you actually have.
    (Of course all other common sense applies, for example only set this when the position changes. Don't write the same cursor postions with every iteration of the loop over and over. )

  • Error 1055 using XY graph's node property

    Hello I'm using the node property block to specify the plot name of a XY graph (and other things). But is so strange because it makes an error 1055 , incorrect object. I'd run this application before and I'd no
    problems, what is the reason?
    Thank you
    Larson

    Error 1055 occurred at Property Node (arg 6) in 29-08.vi
    Possible reason(s):
    LabVIEW:  Object reference is invalid.
    This is the node property I'm using (case false and true). It runs correct but if I introduce the plot name attribute it makes this error. But this plot name is a constant.

  • Using Property Nodes to view a subVI's xy-graphs in the mainVI

    Hey all.
    Yet again I sit here facing a problem. I currently working on subtracting a background spectra from another measured spectra. This part work good enough, and is what you can see in the RemoveBackground.vi.
    My problem is that I want to display the xy-graphs from the subVI in my mainVI named Sample.VI. For some reason it worked for the one called Derevative, but though I am doing the very same thing to get the reference control (right-click the xy-graph in the mainVI and created a reference -> right click to create a control to the reference -> copy-paste the control into the subVI -> make a property node and connected the control and the property node -> selected the property value -> changed the property of the node to write -> linked the cluster going to the subVI's xy-graph to the property node as well).
    Why won't it work for my signal as well?

    The problem is that your Delta Signal XY Graph is expecting an array of clusters and you're feeding in a cluster to the "Value" property. If you insert a Build Array function prior to writing to the "Value" property it will work. Did not intend to have an array of clusters for that graph?
    You should not you have a nasty bug in your code. If you run the top level VI as is, you get into a continuous loop that displays a dialog message about not having any data, and the only way to get out is to force quit LabVIEW, unless you have a handy-dandy LabVIEW app that aborts all running VIs.

  • Y scale flip in waveform graph when using property node.

    I'm having problem with property node. I'm trying to build a stackable scope with Waveform Graph And dynamically change the number of plots. It is working. But The Y scale is flipping. The minimum goes on the upper part and the minimum scale goes down. when I change it appearance it's not very fast. It take about 1 or 2 second on my computer.
    The way it is build actually is:
    Cluster_1 is containing 8 clusters. And each of the 8 clusters are containing a Waveform Graph. By reference I change the property of each Waveform to make visible or not each of the Waveforms.
    First I would like to solve the scale problem and second accelerate the redrawing of my scope.
    Maybe there is an other way t
    o do what I need.
    Thanks.

    Wow, you have a neat program! The problem with your y axis flipping is because the last four charts in the cluster were programmed with a flipped axis. I relabeled the charts and it worked correctly.
    From what I could tell with your code, you do not need the sequence structures. The one inside of the even actually runs the same code twice. Remove this duplication and you should see improvement. Also clusters are slow, so you should not expect it to blink back with additional coding. Use defer panel updates to get that behavior. I incorporated these changes and attached the program.

  • Multiplot waveform graph plots are different colors when set to be the same with a property node.

    The graphs were working yesterday. I made a few changes to another part of the block diagram and now the graphs do not plot all of the plots the same color. I am using a for loop with a property node with the elements active plot connected to the iteration terminal, and plot color to a color box. My for loop increments programmaticaly from another part of the code to create plots as it runs. I have replaced the graphs with new ones and they will work sometimes.
    I am using Win2k and LV 7.1
    Thanks,

    Hi bh3560,
    Have you tried chaging the color by right clicking on the line in the plot legend.  There is an option to change the color of the plot.

  • Class conflict when programmatically editing graphs with property node

    I am trying to programmatically move the cursors on a graph. I want the cursor to look the same on 2 different graphs so I made a subVI. The code works correctly when I have seperate property nodes, but when I try to use the subVI, I get a class conflict -
    "You have connected a refnum of one type to a refnum of another type and both types are members of some class hierarchy, but there is neither a simple up cast nor type cast between the two classes."
    I am not sure how to fix this. The graph that works is of a waveform, and the graph that doesn't is the output of the FFT Power Spectrum VI. Is the problem that the inputs are different? Or is there some kind of resource conflict when using property nodes in subVIs?

    A shot in the dark here.  But maybe if you make the subVI's input reference of type GraphChart it would work.

  • How to alter XY graph label according to property node?

    I have tried to alter the XY graph label (title) programmatically by making a property node of the XY graph and going to label/text. Then I created a constant to rename the graph, ran the VI but it refused to rename the graph. I have consulted the manual and have searched the forums trying to find an answer. All of the other properties seem alterable, the font of the title, color, etc. but it will not rename the title with the text. Does it have something to do with the owned labels and free labels? If so, is there a way to get around this so I can enter the title through a property node? I am using version 6.1 and would appreciate any help that can be provided. My complements to the forum surfers who ans
    wer labview questions, most are extremely useful and have accelerated my labview learning greatly.
    Thanks,
    CYung

    The help for label>>text property, states that it is not available when the VI is running.
    If the text string is a free label or a caption, this property is settable when the VI is running and is available in the run-time engine. However, if this text string is an owned label, this property is not settable when the VI is running and is not available in the run-time engine.
    Attached is an example how to chnage the title/caption of the graph.
