Display point clouds with CVI

[OZ_68]

Hello

does anyone know if it is possible to display a point cloud with CVI? Which Control could be used for this?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

just use the graph control and use PlotXY().

Or go all in and use the canvas and draw everything on your own.

Hope that helps.

Hi

I recommend having a look at the CVI 3D examples given by NI.

You can use the OpenGL 3D Plotting control or the ActiveX CW 3D Graph or you can make one from scratch using the canvas control.

I would not ignore the suggestion of a graph control: PlotXY with PlotStyle = SCATTER will draw a set of points and you have some options on point styles to play with. Other options will probably give more impacting presentation of results but this is the fastest way to show some data on screen.

Search for graph.cws example to have an immediate preview of this solution.

Thats an interesting idea, I will try this too.
