Mixed Signal Graph Legend - Programmatic Plot Goup Label

[Jim Kring]

Anyone know how to programmatically change the plot group label in the legend of the Mixed Signal Graph? I can't seem to find any properties or methods to do so.

Click Here to open "Mixed Signal Graph.vi" example in LabVIEW 8.0 (you must have LabVIEW running, before clicking on the link.)

Thanks.

Hi, Jim. I'm pretty certain there isn't a property to do this, as there is no VI Server class that coincides with the plot groupings. The only thing I can think of is to see if you can get a reference to a plot area, and if so there might be a property under there somewhere (sorry, I don't have 8.0 installed on my machine to look to verify).

I haven't seen many comments regarding the MSG, and haven't seen the bug reports since I'm working on the MINDSTORMS project right now (I did about 80% of the work on the MSG - long enough to write a bunch of buggy code, but not long enough to stick around and fix the bugs . Are you finding it useful?

Hey Jason. I don't see anything related to the Plot Area that shows any hope of changing the plot group title. I haven't had an opportunity to use the mixed signal graph, but I'm looking forward to it -- it's a pretty powerful UI component. The multi-plot cursor feature is very cool, too.

Cheers,

The multi-plot cursor feature is very cool, too.

Yes, it is. The hope is to be able to add it to waveform (and possibly XY) graphs as well, but we didn't have time to figure out how to enforce a policy of only one X-scale on the graph when the cursor is in use, or figure out the behavior of the cursor when there are multiple X-axis at play.
