Waveform attributes

Is there a list of waveform attributes that can be reused in labview 8.51?

I am interested in using the pre existing attributes to minimize the code I need to write to display (Graph) my data, such as the plot channel name.

Does anyone use the waveform attributes outside of express daq vis?

For the rare occation when I can use the channel names set-up in MAX, yes I use them. But that is mainly for the channel name.

 

Since the attributes can be anything you set, there is only a limited set of established attributes which is listed under the detailed help for the "Get Waveform Attributes Function". I never did manage to harness the functionality of the units since "crossing the streams is bad"* is just not allowed.

 

I hope that helps,

 

Ben
