waveform data type issues in labview

[ricardom3r]

hi! im creating an osciloscope in labview, but im having issues trying to get some items from waveform chart. 

i need to get items such as XSCALEMAXIMUM in waveform data type(dark brown)  not on DBL(orange). 

i already watch every single video on youtube and also went thorugh many forums. but i still dont know how to get items in waveform data type. 

when i give right click on wavefirn chart and select create>property node> Y sacle> range> all elements,,,this si waht i get 

but i need this .

this is what im trying to do im i cant see any attempt of convertion.  so it loks like its an option that i dont have available or so. 

helpe me please!

If you connect a waveform to a chart and then create a property node, you'll get the waveform type. If you have a DBL connected and create a property node, you'll get the DBL type. Simple as that.

You'll probably want to get used to terminology.  If someone tells you to wire A to B, that means A is an input to B.  It should never be interpreted the way you first tried to connect the two.  Nodes that change react to inputs.  They won't change based on what you wire them to.

Also, it wouldn't make a whole lot of sense for your chart to be an input to something else. Usually the common sense approach is the best way to look at things.
