Can i replace a Plot data with an image in an XY Graph?

[PraneshRao]

I want to build a VI where the plot data or the points in an XY Graph is replaced by an Image. Is this possible?

Hi Pranesh,

the plot data or the points in an XY Graph is replaced by an Image. Is this possible?

Yes.

Graphs support to embed upto 3 images, for front, middle and background…

For reference you might look for the "Plot images property" example VI in the example finder!

Thanks a lot. Now I'm able to insert an image into the plot. But how do I control the position of the image? Lets say I want an image at an X and Y axis point, How do I do that?

Hi Pranesh,

the image is embedded at the upper left corner of the graph plot area (from my mind, please test again).

To move the image to a different position you need to create a larger image and place your "sub"-image at the right pixel coordinates…

Hi Pranesh. Did you find a way to put an image in a specific point in the graph?
