video sequence

[johan.floriot]

Hello, for a presentation that I must do, I need to present a video sequence of graphs with Labview 5 or 6. The successive graphs (read from Excel files) must be traced sequencially (with fixed axes) to show their temporal evolution. Moreover, I need a numerical indicator to note, for each graphs, the time value. Thanks a lot for your answer.

Hello Johan,

You want to present a video sequence using LabVIEW, I propose to you 2 solutions :

1 - To save all your graphs in a video file, for example on MPEG (.mpg) or on AVI file, and launch this file in a 3D graph from LabVIEW using a video reader as "Windows Média Player".
You will use ActiveX.
Program example :

2 - TO include your graphs in a power point presentation and launch it from LabVIEW.
Cf. Attached file.

I hope that my answer will help you.
