waveformGraph Clone

[Michael Baxter]

Hi,

I have developed an application with a colourful waveformGraph, and I'm able to print this with no problem.

However, I also want to provide an option to print the waveformGraph as simple monochrome graph, to save printer ink costs.

I think I need to create a clone of the displayed waveformGraph, and then tweak the colouring of the graph and then call the ToImage method. Unfortunately, I can't find a Clone method for the waveformGraph.

Should I be thinking about wrting a clone method? Or is there a simpler way of going about this?

Many thanks,

Michael

You can try this way:
- [before printing] set colors for your Graph to the "gray" scheme;
- print the graph;
- [after printing] restore colors back to the "rainbow" scheme.

For each graph object (Graph, Plot, Axis, Cursor) you will have to change 3-6 properties.

YuGen,

Thanks for the reply, as there is no Clone method, I'll do as you suggest!

With appreciation,

Hello Michael,

1. The Clone method exists for Plots and Axes. So you can clone your plot staying with the same graph object.

2. After cloning you will have to change the colors for your new object.
Maybe I missed something, but I don't understand advantages of cloning.

WBR,
