Hi all
Can i get the source code behind the Polar plot tool in LabVIEW?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi mhs,
ever double-clicked the "polar plot" VI? It's not password protected and you can browse its full hierarchy...

Yes i have double clicked on it several times , but i am asking about the source code which draws the circular lines of plot and put labels on it . I want a C language code which i want to implement in LabWindows, because there is no polar plot tool available there.

LabVIEW DOES NOT RUN ON C...
The picture control used by LabVIEW origins from the Mac platform and uses Op-codes (commands) to draw images and texts.

Here is the source code. It has been written fully in LabVIEW. Accept for the text vi, but you don't need that either way.

Yes i want to do it in Labwindows, so i thought that how the polar plot of Labview is made?

It's not. LabVIEW and LabWindows are two totally different languages. You can use C DLLs in LabVIEW, and you can use LabVIEW DLLs in C (with the Run-TIme Engine), but you can't take LabVIEW objects and place them in LabWindows code. You received several good suggestions in your other thread, so you should stick with that thread since you are trying to do this in LabWindows, not in LabVIEW.

Ok. Thanks for the guidance.
