Uses the 3D Surface VI to plot a simple surface from Z Matrix then Property Node CWCursor3D for setting X,Y and Z position of the cursor.

 

Description:

Plots a Simple Surface from Z Matrix using 3D Surface then specifies a collection of 3D object and sets X,Y and Z position of the cursor using Invoke nodes.

 

Requirements

LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible)

 

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

  1.  Run VI
