When an Axis Range is Reversed in the CW3DGraph the cursor does not function properly.

[chill]

On my 3D Graph I would like the X-axis values to go from 0 to X starting at the forward edge of the graph and moving into the window. When I reverse the X axis range, the cursor does not follow the new axis coordinates. In my application it is imparitive that the two agree. I believe this is a problem with this control. Can someone fix it?

Sir,
I was not able to replicate the issue. When I invert the X-Axis, the cursor will go to the correct point. What version of Component Works do you have?

I am running Measurement Studio version 6.0, Labwindows CVI. The cw3dgrph.fp file indicates it is version 6.0. What is Component Works?
My cursor is in the "snap to nearest plot" mode. Note that the value displayed on the text flag is correct. But the actual position is wrong?

Sir,
I think that driver deals with the Component Works 3D graph, thus the cw3dgraph.fp file name. This graph is an AcitveX control, and I placed this control onto my CVI .uir file. I have the settings for the added cursor to be snap to nearest plot, and have placed the cursor. I then invert the x-axis, and the cursor is also flipped, resulting in it being in the correct location. Perhaps I am misunderstanding you, and if this is the case, leave your number, and I will give you a ring. Thanks.

You did not misunderstand the problem. I gave you some bad info. It had been a while since I looked at this problem. The real symptoms are the mouse cursor does not trigger Event Got Focus in the new location of the graph cursor, and the cursor label is lost in space. The cursor gets focus in the location of the non-inverted X axis. The location of the cursor label is undefinably wrong! Get all that? My number is 561-626-8900 ext 320. Thanks for your help sorry for the misinformation.

Hello,

I have the same problems using Measurement Studio with MS Visual C++6.0, but this thread stopped without posting a usable solution for me.
When I plot my data in the 3D graph with an inverted x-axis, I can't get focus to the cursor on the cursors position (the mouse pointer doesn't become the little hand). I can find focus to the cursor on the position for non-inverted x-axis, like chill. Inverting the y-axis makes the same problem on this axis.
Could anyone please help me to fix this?

Thanks & Best Regards
