you could try something like snagit -- there is a free demo at http://www.techsmith.com/ QUOTE(george seifert @ Sep 21 2007, 10:22 AM)

that looks like it worked! thankyou very much

Thanks for looking. I've included a few screenshots... one of the working toy example and one of the same code (i think ) that does not work in a flat sequence in my larger program. The function of this VI is to open an .lvm file, process it, and display the important data. Interestingly enough, I ran the program once with a bad .lvm file and the poperty node worked fine -- the graph read time [sec]. I am forced to conclude that somehow opening an .lvm file trumps redefining the property node, regardless of where the property node gets redefined. thanks Eamon

hello, I'm having trouble getting the "Time" label on the x-axis of a series of waveform graphs to read "Time [sec]". I'm not married to this particular approach, but I need to do something like this so that screenshots generated for our customers will have the appropriate units. I believe the best way to change this is by writing "Time [sec]" to a property node of the graph. I'm pretty sure I have the right varible (see post title). I can get the desired effect to work on toy examples, but when I try this tactic in a real program it doesn't work. I have placed them in and outside of a flat sequence which is the major structure of the VI. No errors... but nothing happens and I still have "Time" along the bottom of my graph... any ideas? thanks Eamon

QUOTE(Neville D @ Apr 13 2007, 01:44 PM) thankyou Neville. The card is still under warranty, and NI has been prompt with replacement. The card is always handled with proper grounding. What concerns me is that this is the second failure to which I can attribute no clear cause... intermittent problems are always the most frustrating and hardest to diagnose. Hopefully it was a fluke! I just wanted to ping the community and see if anyone else had problems. EC

hello lavaland ~ I just got an error message in labview 7.1 while trying to use the scxi 1125 with the 1313 terminal block. Apparently the EEPROM went bad on the card itself. This is the second unit that has failed in this manner. Has anyone else had problems with this card? Can anyone suggest any work-arounds? I need to measure up to four signals randging from 0 to 300 volts very accurately, and would like to avoid building my own static attenuating circuit. thanks Eamon
