You need to use the paint tool and right click in the black area. A
window should pop up to select the color. Choose the T in the upper
right corner. This should make the black dissapear. You will then
need to make the rectangle decoration of the waveform chart invisible
too. It is done in a simmilar way.

As mentioned in the other post, if you are mainly wanting the graph
inside the LV panel to be transparent, use the transparent color in the
coloring tool.

If you want this to go through the clipboard, you may need to do a few
other things. The Classic graph will copy to the clipboard as an
enhanced metafile whereas the fancier 3D graph will copy as a bitmap.
So, you may need to replace your graph with a classic graph. Then when
you take the ehanced metafile to Word or powerpoint or whatever, it will
be more editable. In Word or Powerpoint, you can Edit Image and
recolor, ret
ype, or even delete portions such as the rectangle.
