Regression from 8.5 to 8.6 using a waveformgraph without plots

[Marrocco]

I have a regression bug when updating my code from Measurement Studio 8.5 to 8.6.1.

Reproduction:

1. Create a new Windows Forms application

2. Add a WaveformGraph to the Form

3. Add a Cursor to the graph

4. Specify Cursor property X Position = 0

5. Get rid of the automatically inserted Plot by manually remove the field and all references to it using the code editor.

6. Start the project

With 8.5, it works.

However, with 8.6.1, a null reference exception will occur in the EndInit method of the cursor.

As you may notice, a waveform graph without any plots is created. Though this is not achievable by working with the designer alone, it is a requirement in my project and it worked out quite good for a long time.

Omitting step 4 also resolves the problem.

I would very like to see this problem fixed in some future version of Measurement Studio.

Hi Christian,

I could reproduce this here.

I will forward it to R&D

They fixed it in the 2010 version. Thanks a lot!
