Graphs, how to have a fixed background matrix

[Bill in Phoenix]

I am in the process of developing some code to remotely control some spectrum analyzers. Each system will consist of 4 spectrum analyzers. The customers wants the LabVIEW software to look and function just like the software that runs on their display and control unit. I am enclosing a picture of my X-Control that I created as part of the entire display. The spectrum analyzer indicates that the amplitude, Y-axis, range is 0 - 10,000 measurement units. The length, X-axis, has a range of 3-1024 positions units. The default is 800 position units. I plan on just using the default of 800. I have tried to set the property nodes from within the X-Control and either I am doing something wrong or the minimum, maximum, etc. values can not set within the X-Control.

What the customers wants to see on the background is a 10x10 matrix for the major lines. As you can see in the RFB graph, the lines are set for a 8 horizontal and 5 vertical matrix.

1. How would you advise that I get a 10x10 matrix for the background?

2. Would I need to do a custom control paste my own picture in it?

3. What is the best settings for the maximum, minimum, and sacling factors variables? or any other than you feel should be adjusted.

Thank you for your help.

Take alook at this thread (where Saverio dod all of the work I got all of the thatnks, go figure!). Slam your own image in and you may be good to go.
