Display 4 Quadrant Status

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi All,

 

I need to create a Quadrant indicator which displays the status of the each quadrant in red (Fail) / Green (Pass) and also if no input available all the quadrant should be changed to another color. How to achieve this.

 

1) Is there any control / indicator readily available.

2) If not, is it possible to customize the control to this requirement.

3) Or, should be use picture plot to draw and display this requirement and how it can be achieved.

 

Which will be the best way to meet this or is there any other best solution.

 

Attached the image how it is supposed to be...

There are many methods. Choose which one is more convenient.
As you said, there is a picture.
Also you can make pictures  rings without borders (you have to make 4 different).
You can add decoration (png) with a hole, and under it place 4 colored boxes.

If you want to display data on a graph, you can use Plot Images:Back Property

Hi Artem,

 

Exactly what i was looking for is the same kind of solution. Thanks

1) One solution is clear that we need to create image of that quadrant and import to the picture ring.

2) I didn't get how you did decoration with hole. i too tried to do the same but not sure. Can you tell.

3) Also, may i know how we can create our own desired shape and size of customized controls in Labview. Is there any article / link

2) In the graphics editor I drew a square (you need to select a gray color as background of the window, in this case the decoration will invisible), cut out a hole in the center of the square. I used GIMP, but it is suitable for anyone with support for transparent layers.
Save png with transparency support. I imported this image in the labview and inserted it on the control panel.

3) Creating Custom Controls, Indicators, and Type Definitions
