XYgraph background

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi everybody,

I'm looking for a way to put a background image in my XYgraph. I found that solution (image attached), but I want it to keep the same image in the BG, because everytime a try to move a cursor, a pop up ask me to choose an image in a directory. I guess I need a loop somewhere but I don't know where.
Any Ideas ?

Best regards,
MartinO.

Hi MartinO,

 

"everytime a try to move a cursor, a pop up ask me to choose an image in a directory"

Once you have set the BG image everything should be fine. Can you show your full VI instead of the small snippet?

Accepted by MartinO.

Drag your "read picture" out of the main loop and you should be asked for a pathname only when launching the vi. Better : define a pathname as a constant to avoid the popup dialog.
