How do I change the number of plot areas in a Mixed Signal Graph

How do I *programatically* change the number of plot areas in a Mixed  Signal Graph?  I recognize that the developer can choose to add or  remove a plot area during edit mode but I want to select between 2 or 3 visible plot areas and scale the plot areas appropriately.  Is there a property that tells me how many plot areas (or yscales) there are?  I also need a property that I can write to as to set the number of plot areas available.

Aside from manually making too many plot areas and then hiding the unneeded plot areas how can I do this?

Hello,
 
I don't think that is possible - I searched the property and invoke nodes but didn't find something to do that.  This would make a great product suggestion though, which you can submit (it goes directly to R&D) by clicking the word feedback in the bottom left corner of the Contact NI page linked below:

Is it still impossible to add a plot programatically?

There is currently not an option to add a plot programmatically. This would be a great product suggestion.  However, there is a property node to control the visibility of the plot.  Instead of adding a plot, you do have an option to make it visible if it already exists and is hidden.  Depending on your application, this might be a good workaround.

Hi MeghanM,

 

What is this property to control the visibility of the plot?

 

Thanks!

There is Plot->Visibility, but that only controls the visibility of the trace in the plot area not the plot area itself.

Hello,

 

is there a solution to add programmaticaly plot areas in a Mixed Signal Graph ? I have LV 2012, and I hoped it was possible, but at the moment I didn't find the right property node to invoke.

 

Thanks in advance for your help,

 

Mathieu

I needed to do this recently, and was unable to find a way to do so.

Dont we still have the option to create plots or plot areas dynamically for MSG? Even in LV 14?
