chart array elements separately

Labview forum,

I have a for loop which produces an array of 2 elements.
This is contained within an outer loop.  Inside the outer loop, I have connected the array to a chart function.  For each outer loop iteration, the the chart plots both array elements as sequential elements in the same plot.  This was not the behaviour I wanted.

Instead, with each outer loop increment, I would like each array element to be added to a separate curve on the same chart axes.  Thus, in this case, two curves would be plotted simultaneously.
How can I achieve this?

Attached is a simple example of my current situation.

Regards,
Jamie

An alternative solution uses the "array to cluster" function. (Don't forget to set the cluster size!)

Thanks for your help Norbert and Altenbach.
I knew it would be something simple.
It is strange, though, that with Norbert's suggestion we logically convert the 1-dimensional array into a "2-dimensional" array even though that "2-dimensional array" still only has one dimension of data.
Regards,
Jamie

No, it has two dimensions, one of the dimensions is size 1, though 🙂

You can even have a 1D array of size 0 and a 2D array of size 0 x 0, for example. Not the same!
