printout of chart

[sudhakar]

I want to get printout of the waveform chart or waveform graph using LabVIEW base package.please give any method or suggesition.

I'm not really sure what report and print options are available with the base package but look at the shipping example called Sample Test Report.vi. There's no mention made of a specific version of LabVIEW required except that it's Windows only. There's also the old method of printing which is to set a VI's property to be print upon execution. Using this, you would copy the graph data to a subVI when a printout is required. The print option is set at VI Properties>Print Options>Print with Execution.

Please elaborate. What do you mean by "printout"?

You can use the Application Control VIs, and use the Property Node "Print Panel to Printer". By default it will print the entire panel, but if you set the Entire Panel input to False, it will only print the visible portion of the panel. This way, you can print only the graph by minimizing the size of the panel to display only the graph.
