is there possibility to use the front panel without installing Labview?

[Oliver2000]

Hallo,

i have two small questions:

1- Is it possible to use the front panel of a labview software without needing to install Labview itself? i mean something similar to the "power point viewer" which can view the Power Point files without installing the microsoft office.

2- In an intensity Graph, how can one change the color?

thanks.

A long time ago there used to be a LabVIEW viewer, but it doesn't exist anymore. Or, are you referring to wanting to run a LabVIEW program on another computer? In that case, you need to build an app, and then you only need the LabVIEW Runtime engine installed on the target computer.

As to question 2: the color of what?

Hi,

Regarding your questions

1)You need to have Labview and Application builder installed on your machine. If you have that you can make an stand alone application (EXE) and then you can deploy it on systems that does not have LabView and can view it, However you will not be able to see the block diagram.

Here is a link that explains how to do so

2) You can either do it by using propery node or marker method. The following link explains it

Hope it helps.

Hallo,

Thanks for the useful link of how i can change the color of the intensity graph. i wanted to use the first method, (which is deselcting the interpolate color and then selecting the marker color" but the problem that after deselcting the interoplate color, i still can not select the marker color because it is not selectable! it is empty. any idea mabye how i can make it selectable?

Hi,

What you need to do is

1) Deselect Interpolate color

2) Click on the Add marker, that will add the marker where you want it to add

3)Then right click on the numerical value shown for the marker you created and you will see the active tag saying "Marker Color".Select the color you want.

In an example i have created markers at values 77 and 23 and colured them with red and gray. Hope this helps
