making two xy graphs into one

[labview1958]

I have made an LV in 6.0. It has two xy graphs. One is Force Vs Velocity and the other is No. of Rotations vs Distance. Thus there are two xy graphs in my front panel. I only use one graph a time. I can actually make the two graphs into one but I must not label the xy axis. It is not pretty. Is it possible in LV6.0 to pick a graph of our choice and still have one one graph in the front panel?

You can re-use the same xy graph for both plots.

Simply (1) send the desired data and (2) change the axis labels accordingly using property nodes depending on which data set you want to show.

Do I have to type in the new labels everytime I change graphs? Can you give me a simple example using the property node in LV6.0?

Sorry, I no longer have LabVIEW 6.0, but you would probably use a simple case structure, each case containing the proper axis labels as diagram constant. Depending on the case, a different label is fed to the property node. You only need to type them once when writing the code.
