I need Help with LV charts

Does anyone know how to add text or numerical value on a strip chart
that scrolls together with it? Is
there any example available? I'm using LV5.0

Charts don't currently support markers or cursors. You can look at
using a graph, either waveform or XY and a circular buffer. There
are examples in the examples/general/graphs directory. Graphs allow
you to programmatically define a cursor/marker including its style.
So, you can set its text, have it show the text, and set its line
style to just show the text or text and point. You can also set
its X and Y values.
