event structure: plot attribute change

[stbe]

Hi,

i like the new LV2011 feature of having a dedicated checkbox to en/disable visiblity of a plot (see here: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Direct-access-to-Plot-Visible-property-on-plot-legend/... )

I wanted to register an event structure to catch the case when the user changes some of the plots visibility status and display a mixed control.

However, the event structure does not react on those changes to the plot attribute. If the color, line style, ... is changed the event case executes and also updates my mixed controls.

Is this expected behavior?

Benjamin,

this behavior seems not correct to me. Esp. since using the context menu (right click menu) for toggling visibility works as expected.

Filed CAR 312035 for this.

thanks,

Norbert

Hi Benjamin,

I found that the event case did register a change in visibility. Please try out the attached VI; see if this works for you.

Norbert, you're right.

Alex, sorry I didn't mention that the right-click option works.

Thanks, for bringing this to the programmers 😉

Alex,

I found that your code works when you right click on the plot legend, but if you use the plot visibility checkbox, there is no event triggered.  Is this expected behavior?

thanks
