How to disable some zooming tools in a chart?

[Soroush]

Hi,

I am using a chart in LV6.1 and the user of VI, must not be able to change the Yscale limits, neither by editing scales nor by zooming tools.

I used a property node and made the Yscale not editable. but How can I disable some of zooming tools such as window zoom or Y zoom? how can I limit access to "active tools" of a chart? is it possible?

Thanks for any kind of help.

Right click on the chart and select Visible Items, then uncheck Graph Pallette.

You can also do this programatically with a property node.

With the graph palette not visible, you can still allow access to X-zoom by using property nodes and the Palette:Active Tool property.
Demo in LV6.1 attached.

Another possibility is to customize the chart control and to hide the zooming tools (decrease the size of the zoom button, and move it under the cursor button). Not of great help since you loose also the X and other zoom options...)
