controlling animation

Hello,
I've never tried anything with animation and LabVIEW, so this is probably a simple question:

How do I simulate an animation by changing the controls? Here's what I'd like to do: a control that represents the angle of slope, and a stick figure running up the hill. The higher the number, the steeper the slope becomes.

Do I need to create multiple images and how do I incorporate that into LabVIEW?

Any help will be appreciated 🙂

Thanks!

simplest is to use a gif (probably can find a running man online) and use a simple graph control to show the plot.

 

You can do animation using the picture control or use a picture ring with the different frames stored as picture values. 

 

animation is alot of work and usually not warranted on a cost benifits basis though.
