How can I get this graph look like that picture

[edongliang]

Hi everyone

They are two picture (one name is "I want "(call picture 1 in the above),other is "I have""(call picture 2,in the under),) in the attach. I want get the form of the picture 1.

They are a lot of different.

1 The background color is different. I want get the color as picture (white).

Please add your image.

You can use the coloring tool (right click) to change colors.

sorry !

The picture has been added.

With the chart/graph controls you are using; you cannot.

You will have to draw it yourself with the picture plots.

The picture plots come with VIs for drawing xy graphs, however, they do not expose the grid line type so you will have to edit the sub VI that draws the grid (or draw everything yourself from scratch-which I think you will end up doing eventually to get the same look and feel as the first image).

Picture plots are here

.

You create your graph and draw it like this:

You will need to look inside several sub-vis to find the Draw Grid.vi and modify it like so:

Then when you run it you get this:

HI ShaunR ：

Thank you !

I am a beginer ,so i can not understand your Vi.

I donot konw X SCale space Cluster array include what?

can you pass me you VI?

The image of the example is a labview snippit so that you can drag the image into a VI. The clusters are just the default clusters if you right click on the terminals and select "create Constant" (apart from I have changed the line colour from yellow to blue). The version of LV I am using is buggy in that it doesn't show the contents of the clusters in the snippit, but if you import into a VI, they will be there.

However. I have attached the example as this may be easier for you. You will still need to modify the Draw Grid.VI, as I have shown, since that is a VI shipped with LabVIEW as part of the Plot Graph function and not mine - you will need to modify your locally installed Draw Grid.vi.

HI ShaunR ：

You donot attached the Draw Grid.Vi

where are the X SCale space Cluster array from?

liang

You mean that Labview can plot the same look like the first picure.

what about DIAdem or matlab?

I'll leave you to figure that out. I've opened the door. It's up to you to walk through (take the red pill ).

Yes. Although it will be a lot of work for you and you'll really struggle if you want cursors at some stage.

what about DIAdem or matlab?

I don't use either so I don't know. Try some matlab forums.

DIAdem can do elements, you probably won't be able make it identical but you can do axis layouts to what you show in the report layouts

[Ton Plomp]

Diadem can certainly do what you need. (and even prettier using superscript in axis labels).

[edongliang]

ok

I will try it

IS Diadem can export the picture into the front panel ?

And it can ecport into the word ?

Because you can change the colors to transparent and overlay graphs with images, you can get any sort of look you want.

I'm sure you don't need my compliments, but that is a very impressive looking graph.

[JoeQ]

Thanks

[edongliang]

Do you plot it in Diadem ?

Can you pass me some example like the first picture?
