How to programmatically set 'Anti-Aliased' plot property?

Is it possible to set the 'Anti-Aliased' plot property in the XY-Graph control programmatically? If someone knows the way to do this, please enlighten me..
Thanks,
Scott

Hello Scott,

Unfortunately, that option currently does not exist. I would recommend submitting product feedback at www.ni.com on the "Contact NI" tab under "Product Feedback". All of these suggestions get reviewed by R&D and are often implemented in new products.

Regards,
Chris J

I was afraid that was the case.

Thanks, Chris.

This post was made in 2005.  I'm using LabVIEW 2009 and still do not see the "Anti-Aliased" property.  Is it there, just named something funny?  Or is it still not something that can not be set programmably?  There also doesn't appear to be a way to set "Anti-Aliased" as default for the whole graph control (I'm using a Mixed Signal Graph).  Seems like a useless feature at-the-moment with my users having to go through each individual plot and selected the "anti-aliased" feature.  Shame too, because it make the graphs look so much better especially when a white or light background is used.

Hi Nickerbocker,

 

Unforuntately, it seems that this is still not a property node for this feature. As stated back in 2005, the best way to get this implemented is to create a production suggestion at http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/nicc.call_me. I will also create an internal product suggest for this feature. I apologize for the inconvenience.

 

Thank you for choosing National Instruments.

Did NI produces a way to programmatically set anti-aliased plot properties?

Not yet, but you could vote for this idea in the LabVIEW Idea Exchange: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=labviewideas&message.id=434#M434

Thanks for the link GregS!  Hate to be a grump: but this isn't a feature that should need an idea exchange.  Anti-Alias is clearly a property of a graph control and should be accessible with a property node.  No way to set anti-alias by default, and no way to set it pragmatically makes it a rather useless thing.

Is Anti-Aliased plot property still not programatically accesible in LabVIEW 2011?

 

EDIT: it seems it isn't. Feature seems to be in development at the date of this writting:
