3d graphs over remote desktop

[John Pierson]

possibly can't be solved at the labview end of the problem, but worth mentioning anyway.

I'm running labview remotly from my home computer to a network. It all works except it won't display the 3d graphs.

Is this a common problem with activex regions??

Can it be solved somehow? (I'm currnetly getting a 'getimage' from the method nodes and simply grabbing an image of it and saving them to see them.)

Help!

Hi John,

This is an issue of how ActiveX instances are created, and is documented in this KB. The easiest work around would be to upgrade to LabVIEW 2009 as we have a new set of LV Object-Oriented based 3D graphs, which then will work with the LabVIEW run-time engine.

But you can't do everything a CW 3d graph can do with the LVOOP version.

Hey, i *think* i've found the problem. if you select the option 'cache data' i think it displays the data.

although i won't know untill i get home to try it.

yup, just cache the data and it stops trying to update the graph all the time.

Although i may still create problems depending on how you are remote desktopping.
