where are the 3d graph cursor examples mentioned in 3dgraphctrl.fp help

In the help for the 3dgrapctrl function panel there is a secin 3d graph examples,
which reads;->

3D Graph Examples

Measurement Studio delivers several examples for 3D Graph. Click on the following links for example descriptions and locations:

Axis (3D Graph)

Contours

Cursors (3D Graph)

Mouse Events (3D Graph)

Plot Styles

Region of Interest (3D Graph)

Simple 3D Graph

Spinning Light

Transparency

 

 

Under cursors 3d graph it reads 😆

Example: Cursors (3D Graph)

Demonstrates all the cursor properties.

Description

Press the "Import File to Plot 1" button to plot some data. Move the mouse over the visible cursor and notice that the mouse icon changes. Click down with the left button on the cursor and drag to move it around. Modify the properties on the right side of the form to see how they affect the cursor.

Controls, Properties, Methods, and Events

This example demonstrates the following controls, properties, methods, and events:

CWGraph3D

CWCursors3D

CWPlot3D

Example Location

Samples\UI\3DGraph\Cursors

 

The above directory does nto exist.

I search for it but could not find it.

There is a directory  "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\CVI71\samples\userint\activex"

that has some other 3d graph examples  (not under the names in the help file) but not the cursors or region of interest and some other missing ones.

 

Where might I find them?

The function panel that you are using for the 3DGraph was auto-generated by the ActiveX controller wizard. Part of the wrapper generation task is to link the function panels with the original help file that the authors of the activex control generated. When you right-click on the fp, CVI brings up the original help file that is associated with the activex control for which the wrapper was generated. The tool can only generate CVI specific wrappers for allowing you to use activex component in CVI. It does not convert the help to something CVI specific.

The examples mentioned in the help file that opens up are actually shipped with Measurement Studio support for Visual Studio 6.0 and refer to VC++ and Visual Basic 6.0 examples, not CVI examples.

The path that you mentioned ( "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\CVI71\samples\userint\activex" ) is the folder that contains all the CVI examples for the 3DGraph. I would recommend using those examples as a starting point. If you have questions about the control and the wrapper, please feel free to post on the forum.
