Graph data causes VI file to very large

[JohnP]

My VI reads data files with up to 500,000 data points and displays them in various formats in graphs.  If I "make current values default" with all these graphs populated the file size when I save the VI is very large (72 MB).  Is there any way to not save the all the graph data with the VI and just the parameters so that the VI starts the same way the next time I open it to process a new set of data?  I don't need all the graphs to be populated when I start again.

Click on the graph and go to the data operations and click on the clear graph option then save it as the default value.

72MB!

Be aware that you don't have to make eveything default. You can programmatically set only the necessary items to Default with a property node when the program starts and/or ends. My point being, you shouldn't have to "make current values default" then save.
