Graphing an array

[Fonzie1104]

So I have a set of data (which is attached below in TEST FILE.txt) that is parsed to an array and I need to graph the first column (abs time) vs. another column (any channel of data).  I'm able to get an array (f2 columns instead of 5 with the first column being time and the second the data from a selected channel) however, I cannot get a proper x-y graph to be displayed.  I changed the x-axis format of the graph to abs time but its still not working.

The TEST FILE.txt is the original data and the VI is what I am using to graph it.  The subVI in this code parses the text file to the array seen in my code ("parsed data array")

means you want to plot two numeric array at y exis and x exit as time stemp.

i will suggest use vi i have attached.

try and let me know is that is usefull to u or not.

Hi Fonzie,

it seems your parsing loop is overly complicated. Why do you parse the same data again and again with no delay in an UI polling loop???

I stripped your VI to the bones and was able to read a timestamp and a value and to plot both...

Forgot to mention before, Im currently running LabVIEW 8.6

Hi Fonzie,

I'd appreciate if you would not post useless information as you did.  I'm looking for individuals who are willing to help me out with an issue that I am having.  You have provided me with no help and are beginning to waste my time.  I suggest you only post if your going to be patient with those who don't have that much experience in this field and if your going to help them rather then complaining about their posts.

Thanks

fonze,

You are the one who is out of line with your confusing and multiple posts. You still don't seem to understand how much of our time you are wasting by doing this. Most of us are volunteers and if you continue this pattern, it's just going to be more difficult to get your questions answered. Play by the rules and we'll all get along much better.

That "moved" post was supposed to go into the other post (I was replying in the other thread, but the forum software posted it here) to indicate the discussion was moved here. It is not useless information. It's there so the others who volunteer to answer questions know what has already been asked, what has already been suggested, and what has already been tried, so we don't end up repeating ourselves.
