I'm looking to see which property node contains the color that sets the background on the graph control. In the screenshot below, this would be the light-green color. I've tried to systematically go through all the various properites with the word 'color' and none of them seem to be it but I'm sure I'm just overlooking it somehow.
Thanks.

The Property is Frame Color

Perfect, now how do I get to that? Right click the graph, Create --> Propert Node --> ????

Yes. Then find Frame Color in the list

Hmm, I don't see it. Is this property new for 2011? I'm on 2010 SP1

Apparently this is not possible pre 2011.
If you're like me and don't have 2011 and need a solution, here you go: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/How-to-change-programmatically-the-color-of-a-graph-frame/td-p/15228...

That is definitely a new one for LV11. If you have a doubt you can search in the Class Browser.
Avert your eyes if you do not like treks deep into hack territory.
Easy peasy. Now you can change that color at will, and please do that green is pretty ugly.
Edit: Seeing the link in the previous post, not much has changed in 7 years...

Thanks for the tips on creating a Decoration constant and grouping them together.

Sorry SiegeX, I hope I didn't send you on a wild goose chase. Should have remembered my Release Notes with 2011.
