intensity graph in Visual C

[programmerelliot]

Hi, I need help in creating a program. I need to create a 3-D intensity graph using a 2-D array (such as [sine][sine]).

There's no direct support for this in Measurement Studio. One way you could achieve this, though, is to plot your data on the Measurement Studio 3D graph and then rotate the plot such that you're looking down the Y axis. There's a Visual Basic example that demonstrates how to do this in the article Plotting Intensity Using a Measurement Studio 3D Graph Control .

Also, the LabWindows/CVI supports intensity plots, so another option would be to develop this part of your user interface with CVI, then you could convert the CVI project to a Visual C++ project with the Measurement Studio
application wizard, and then develop the rest of your application using the Measurement Studio for Visual C++ libraries.

What function shall I use? What parameters shall I use in order to make it look like the intensity graph of the object itself (as in, when you create the object, there is a default picture (but of course, when you run that project, the default picture will not show up))?

I suggest using Plot3DSimpleSurface or Plot3DSurface. For more information, please see the answer that was posted in the new thread on this topic.
