compass scale

[gibon]

I have a problem. I want use 2D compass to show some vector data, but I can't change scale properties - exactly I can change but there is no effect. I want change scale (maximum and minimum). Can someone help me ?

What are you using for your compass?

I just made one using a numeric dial indicator.  I set the data range from 0 to 360, using the Properties dialog.  But then you also have to click on the number visible on the front panel and edit the highest one to 360.

Then, you can drag the 360 around until it meets the 0 and then drag it so it's due north, or wherever you want it.

2D compass is a component:

Controls -> modern -> Graph -> Compass plot

On right button mouse click is a option: create -> Property Node -> R Scale -> and here are few options. I can change values in this options (for example I can change maximum, minimum) but there is no effect. I can't understand why. Can someone help me ?

Oh, you are correct on using it. But there is some bug in its VI server property. Can you modify the range on the scale directly?

[LandBelenky]

Oh, I'd never noticed that component before.

It looks like mine is working correctly.  I'm not sure if this is what you want:

the only thing I did is change the Plot Helper to Vector (rather than Complex) and set the scales to Autoscale. It takes in two arrays of same length, one for theta (in degrees), starting at 0 to the East and 90 to the North.

Thank You, hanrock. This is a answer: now I know that I do correct, but component is wrong.

Thank You too LandBelenky, what You show is a solution to omit this problem, but I knew it before I ask this question.
