How do I display an array using vision tools

[Hummer1]

I have an array of data that I would like to display on the screen.  When I use the picture functions they put a border around the image which is not helpful.  I noticed the "IMAQ WinDraw" and used it to display data I got from a Tiff file (without the border)...but there doesn't seem to be a path from an array directly to the windraw function without going through the file process.  I'm sure I have missed something...but what is it?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Y do need picture functions when u have a direct function?

Actually, if I understand your question correctly, you will just need two functions:
IMAQ Create
IMAQ ArrayToImage

You can then use the Front Panel control "Image Display" to display the image.

I do not seem to have IMAQ ArraytoImage anywhere in the help files or in the system.  Where can I acquire such a wonderful piece of software?

Not Humming.

Hey, Chris....no kidding.

I have the vision tools and LV Developer Suite and there is no IMAQ Array toImage that I can find.  Is there one in the vision developer module?

Look here.  It will be in this sub-palette


Vision and Motion >> Vision Utilities >> Pixel Manipulation

Hummer,
                Can you post a screen shot of your function palate?

[Hummer1]

The only function in the pixel manipulation palate is the IMAQ ImagetoArray ...  that's it. 

Should there be more?

Sorry ... havn't downloaded the Image posting stuff yet...

Hummmmm

It sounds like you need to install the Vision toolkit again.
