Can the cursors in a property node be changed to the LabView 7.X format instead of 8.X?

I plotted data and used the property node thing to create cursors so that I can select individual data points.  The LabView 7.0 or 7.1 format for the cursors was useful because I could punch in a number and the cursor would then jump to that number.  But with LabView 8.0, this option is apparently no longer available, and I must manually move the cursor to where I want it to go.  This is very time-consuming, and I would like to know if there's a way to revert to the LabView 7.0 format, or change the existing format so that I can tell the cursor where to go by punching in a number.  Any ideas?

Sorry but no. You are stuck with the 8.0 style cursor option. I find the labview 8.x cursor display ugly and useless. Even my customers are very quick to specify that they do not want Labview 8.x styled cursors. I really miss the 7.1 type cursor display 


Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted
(Sorry no Labview "brag list" so far)

Damn!  I'll have to see if I can find my LabView 7.0 or 7.1 discs.

Your problem seems to be related to to this. If the cursor is a "single-plot" cursor then manually chaning the Y position has no effect. There is speculation this is a bug.
