A co-worker suggested a Waveform Chart wired up with the waveform data type. If each "waveform" has just one point, t0 will act as the X axis value and you can achieve an irregularly spaced chart. It works!

The chart buffer is done in G software rather than embedded in the front panel object, but it gets the job done. I think it existed in LV5.0.1. If not, you could code your own in about 22 minutes. Just keep the data in a shift register and update the entire XY Graph on every update. Those graphs are pretty darn fast. Hope that helps. Confidential to NI: we still need a real XY Chart! Jason Dunham SF Industrial Software, Inc. -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Bowler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 10, 2004 10:16 AM To: LabVIEW Mailing List Subject: time graphs with irregular Xdeltas One thing that I'm "frustrated" by with LabVIEW (remember, I'm using 5.0.1), is the inability to have a chart where the x-axis is time and is displayed as time, where the Xdelta is irregular. More importantly, it's starting to annoy my boss (the reason I don't yet have a more modern version of LV). Is there something that I'm missing (in 5.0.1) or available in a later version (that I can maybe use to convince my boss) that allows for charts with irregularly spaced time on the x-axis? Thanks!
