labview 2009 mixed signal graph

[ThHagel]

Hi All,

I have a problem with the LabVIEW 2009 mixed signal graph. I want to use multiple cursors snapped to multiple graphs, plotted in two plot areas and I want them to look flashy. But if I try to setup the cursors line style, the setting only applies to the cursor line in the upper plot area. Shouldn't it apply to the entire cursor? The line color or the point style applies as expected to booth parts of the cursor line. Does someone know the trick to fix this?

Thanks,

Thomas 

---> I forgot to mention that the cursor names do not show up if the attribute "Show Name" is active. Any Ideas?

Hi Thomas,

I was able to reproduce this issue, but I'm not sure if this is really an error or a wanted behaviour.

If you create a MultiPlot Cursor  and don't select "watch" the cursor style applies to the whole cursor.

As soon as you select one or more plots to "watch", the line style attributes are only applied to the window where the plot you watch is inside.

But as soon as you add a plot from the lower graph, no change appears, the line style doesnt change.

And when you first add a digital plot to the watch list, you have the same appearence as in the first picture, when you add a analog line, you have the seccond picture behaviour.

I personally would classify this as a bug, and will file this.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
