Copy Plot

I have an x-y plot that lets you choose the data you want displayed.

All  I want to do is make an exact copy of it so that I can plot on two different scales.

I really cannot figure out how to do this since I didn't write the original program.

I don't know if anyone will be able to help, and I'm not even sure how useful posting the program will be because there are a lot of subvis.

The actual plot is in the 4 main frame and 4 subframe and 1subframe in that.

Thanks.

Hi Kat,

 

I'm happy to try to help out, but there are a bunch of VIs in that zip file. Which one is the top level VI? I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for here. Thanks!

I am really sorry I completely forgot to mention that.

It's the 6 Channel HP vi.

Hi Kat,

 

Thanks for clarifying that. This code is pretty complex, and not really laid out in an easy-to-follow manner. The current plot is dynamically modified all over the VI by property nodes, so unfortunately you can't just copy and paste a new graph in the program.

 

At the end of the day, I think adding a second identical graph with a different scale would be a whole lot of work because of how this program is set up. However, if you create a new graph and modify it anywhere the existing graph is being modified, you should be able to accomplish this. I'm sorry I don't have an easier solution for you.
