Hello everyone,
I am using the intensity graph in NXG 2.1 to plot 2D temperature values from logged data. My application reads in a text file with individual thermocouple channels on the y-axis (columns in the text file) and time on the x-axis (rows in the text file) and then plots them on the intensity graph. Everything plots fine however, the plot uses the index of the columns and rows as the x-axis and y-axis scaling. What I need to do is have the channel names as the y-axis and date/timestamp as the x-axis values. Can anyone guide me on how to do this? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Steve

Can you upload a small piece of your text data file?
Can't you add/edit graph properties to get channel names as the y-axis and date/timestamp as the x-axis values. ?

Thanks for your reply. The intensity graph in NXG seems to only use the row and column indexes of the data by default, so I am using a text file of only my temperature values to display on the graph. There are no add/edit graph properties that I am aware of. I am not sure how to reference the values if I put my time column and channel name row header in the text file because of the way it only uses the column/row indexes for the axis values. I will attach one of the text files I am using if you want to play around with it. Thanks again!
