XY graphs

[cheekychops]

Hi Guys

Can anyone give me a clue on how to add some on/off buttons to plots on a XY graph. Ex: if I have more than one plot on one XY graph, how can I add some buttons on the front panel so I can turn each plot on and off?

Thanks

You can use an array of booleans next to the XY Graph legend. Match the "legend number of rows" property of your graph with the boolean array "number of rows" property to keep the array the same length as your number of datasets.

I've built it in a XControl. Sorry I can't upload because it's proprietary and contains a few classes that make it not so plug n' play for a demo.

Is there any other ways to do this?

Thanks

All graphs/charts have two properties exposed via property nodes: Active Plot, and Plot.Visible. Use the active plot to set which plot you're dealing with, then set the visibility of that plot. See the attached VI.
