customizing a graph plot legend makes LV crash

[be]

every try to modify the look of a graph plot legend (editing the array of plot names) makes LV crash on Mac (Intel and PPC)

Hi be,

which LV version? Did you only change names or do you want to change the look (i.e. customizing the graph)?
Please be more specific and try to supply pics or examples!

> which LV version?
sorry : 8.5 (Mac)
it worked with 8.2

> Did you only change names or do you want to change the look (i.e. customizing the graph)?
i think i wrote "modify the look of a graph"
but that's true that i can be more precise : changing the background picture
i want to change the kind of left and right bezel to ... let's say something like a rounded box in the decoration menu

Hi be,

sorry, don't have LV8.5.
And you also wrote: "editing the array of plot names"...

It may have to do with the issues I found in 8.5 on a Windows PC.  I think NI introduced a bug in 8.5 with the plot legends.  The only workaround I have found currently is to modify the control in a previous version of LabVIEW and hope that 8.5 doesn't corrupt the decoration (my first issue in the referenced thread).

yes i tried it on the PC version and wasn't even able to access to the customisation panel

at least you can do it on a mac and transfert on a pc
i'll try it on the next days

the trick I found is to edit the element of the plot legend array and not the array
in this case, it works ... on a Mac !
