Setting the Background Image of Intensity Graph in LabVIEW

[Robin_507]

Hi

Is there a way to use an image as background on an intensity graph? I know this option exists for simple graphs (through property node), but I can't see a similar option in the property node of Intensity graph.

Hi Robin,

the IntensityGraph only supports a "front" image - as you fill the background with your own intensity data…

Atleast you could paint the graph transparent and place your image behind the graph!

Hi Gerd

I don't think we can paint the intensity graph transparent. Can you check if that's working for you? 

I also tried setting the 'Low Color' to transparent, but the background now appears grey not transparent.

Hi Robin,

well you can paint the graph transparent using the coloring brush, but you cannot plot data using transparent color…

One more idea:

Set a distinctive LowColor. Plot your data. Get the image of the Graph. Now replace all pixels in your image with your background data when the pixel color is the same as the LowColor…
