cvi 6.0 control graph problem

[vix]

I found a very strange behaviour in my CVI 6.0.

If I create a new uir, and I  create a new Graph Control, it looks like in the attached image.

Repairing the CVI installation didn't solve the problem.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance

Hi vix,

it appears that something is wrong with your font (size). May be you can try to open the graph control and have a look at the label font used. For some reason the size is huge, leaving no room for the graph itself (the graph cannot be larger than the panel). That's why the graph is just a tiny rectangle.

I checked, and the uir Options --> Preferences --> Control Text Style is set to DINMittelschrift font, size 120.

But why this option has changed? I'm sure I've never modified it....

I installed this font on my system, and I use it for some control, but I've never modified this option...

Hello Vix,

It could have ended up as the default font if, while the control that was using the DINMittelschrift font was selected, you pressed <Ctrl-Shift-F>. This option (Edit>>Set Default Font) sets the default font to match the font of the currently selected control.
