Hi
i am working on a problem and can't find any solution.
I would like to show a signal x-y in a chart which should be like that one more or less like that.
The second problem is, I am using BridgeView (this is LabView V5). I think it could work with Min-Max Plot Indicator, but I have no idea how to prepare the data for this.
Coud you give me some example (x: loop counts, y: random number)
I tried with this but it doesnt work.

(shouldn't that be a FOR loop???)
You could use a vertical array of "progress bars" with multiple sliders each and some underlying code and fill options.

That is indeed a problem 😊.
There are 15 newer versions available. Any plans to upgrade?
You can draw anything you like in a picture control. Your shown code actually uses one, although the FP and BD don't seem to match.
What you want is just text, lines and rectangles. Drawing a graph like yours would simply be a matter of calculating the correct coordinates.

This is a great idea and works very simple 😊
Thats exactly what I need.

Unfortunatelly no way. Its an application on a chasis dyno system. An upgrade of LabView would mean to rewrite all the applications running on that system: 2 - 3 million Euro of costs.

Here's a picture control version, just because it's good to have options...
It's more complicated, but more flexible (which you might not need). Of course, it would live in a sub VI.
If the UI should look a certain way, this is the way to go. Although I doubt the expectations are high for a LV5 program 😋.
I'm not sure if LV5 already has the graph picture control overlays. In more recent versions of LabVIEW, the graph and it's picture overlay work really nice together, providing the scaling of the graph, and the flexibility of the picture control.

Nooo! A shift register resized to a large number of histories is an abomination!
Not scalable! (Tomorrow, your boss wants 200 elements, what are you going to do then??? 🐵
(Also note that the input ti "sin" is in radians, so feeeding it integers will give you some alias wave)
(Note that you could also do it with a single bar containing three sliders)
