Saving graph

Hi All,

        My save case structure currently using 'file dialog' - 'flatten to string' - 'write character to file' to save. But is not in labview form because i can't open it. Is there another way to save it? Thank You.

 

Regards,

Isa

Isa,

 

ASCII files are not capable to save pictures. So in that format you are only able to the data which is used to create the waveform on the graph (the array of measurement values).

If you want to use a file format, ASCII based, which can be used very easily in LabVIEW, you should consider using "Write/Read Spreadsheed File".

If you want to have a file with an image of a graphdisplay from your frontpanel, you can use VI Server to take an image and create an HTML file containing that image. But there are no predefined high level functions to implement that, so you would have to learn about VI Server and in general about HTML files.

 

hope this helps,

Norbert

Why not just do this:
