plot0 visibility can't be directly unchecked in LabVIEW 2012 waveform graph&chart

Hi:

 

plot0 visibility can't be directly unchecked in plot visibility checkbox in LabVIEW 2012 waveform graph&chart. Is it normal?

Seems like a bug to me. This could be done in LabVIEW 2011 and can not think of any reason why it would be different in LabVIEW 2012. At least you can set the visibility programmatically. One alternative could be hiding the visibility checkbox and building your own instead.

 

Cheers,

Hi 

The above workaround is a very poor solution. It is clearly a bug and should be solved.

This was reported to R&D (CAR 368466) for further investigation.

 

Workaround: Left-click on plot 0 legend icon and toggle the "Plot Visible" menu item.

Thanks for the work-around.  This is still not corrected in 12.0f3.

If this is still a current issue (which it seems to be with my current LV 2012 updated install)  this is a serious issue and will keep my university on LV2011 until the basic error is fixed.  Extremely important error to fix,

I concur. This is a very important bug that needs to be fixed ASAP.

 

Roy: Thanks for the workaround.

I agree.  This is the sole issue that keeps me using LV2011.  As a developer, I can live with the workaround, but I can't expect my end users to do so.

General Statement

 

We do not preannounce bug fixes, largely because it is possible that a fix, once implemented, might have to be reverted if we later discover the fix causes even worse problems. We absolutely don't want to be in the position where we tell users a bug is fixed and then a week or month later have to tell people "Oops, CAR xxx will not be fixed in release yyyy".

 

With that said though, I am "highly optimistic" this will be corrected in 2012 SP1.

(We also don't preannounce release dates, but we have become very predicatble.)
