Clearing Waveform chart with absolute time on x-axis should understand it must not restart time

Status: Declined

Any idea that has not received any kudos within a year after posting will be automatically declined.

Today, if you right-click and select Clear Chart, on a waveform chart with absolute time on x-axis, it will reset its time also. This means that if your LabVIEW loop started adding to a waveform chart once a minute two days ago, Clearing the chart will make the time restart back two days ago, even though you are adding new data now, not two days ago. I wish NI would implement this feature in the next version. :manvery-happy:

I have not experienced this. Are you sure you are using absolute time and not relative? What data type are you putting into your chart? Maybe you can start a forum post.
