LabVIEW
Control Reference in State Chart
I am using the statechart module and have an XY Graph on the front panel of my top level vi. I need to use property nodes to manipulate this XY Graph, within the statechart. I have created a control reference to the XY Graph and dropped it into the state, however the reference carries a copy? of the control into the state with it. First off, is this a copy of the control or a new control? I am assuming it is a copy, why else would it have followed the reference? Since I have this copy of my front panel control and I am using property nodes will my program get bogged extra bogged down, as both the copy and original control get updated via property nodes? If I send data to the copy will it show up on the original and display on the front panel? Lastly, am I going about doing this the wrong way? Any info is appreciated!
Cheers!

I think that I answered my own question. By including the control reference in the inputs type def for the statechart I can pass the reference without worrying about carrying around the copy of the control as well.
