Hi Paola,

if you own IMAQ Vision you can just have a look at the examples that comes with your board or you can look at: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/explprog.nsf/6c163603265406328625682a006ed37d/2abaefe05789961686256866007c0d22?OpenDocument.

Without IMAQ Vision look at:

(or search at ni.com for "IMAQ Display without IMAQ Vison)

Please mail me if you need further help,

Does the VI you referenced actually put the image onto the front panel or does it create its own window ?

Using IMAQ Vision the fastest way to show images is to use "IMAQ Vision Display" - it uses its own window. If you want to embed your image in the front panel of your main VI you can use the intensity graph for example - that´s much slower because of array transformations, but you can have a look at:
