Create a subVI. Copy the graph from your top-level VI to the subVI and
enlarge the graph on the front panel of the subVI. Place a copy of
the subVI inyour diagram. When you need to create the enlarged image,
pass your data from the top-level graph to the subVI graph and use the
"Get Image" method on the larger subVI graph. If you need additional
properties transferred from one graph to another at runtime (like
legend text, axis labels, or cursors), pass a reference to the
top-
level graph to the subVI and read its property node values into a
property node for the subVI (larger) graph.
I don't think you want to try to enlarge an image created by the Get
Image method, since you will be trying to "blow-up" an already
established bitmap, causing a reduction in the resolution and poor
image quality. The best approach is to create a larger graph and get
its image.
