VI High 19 - LabVIEW 2011 New Feature - How to Make Plots Visible on Charts and Graphs
Here is a quick and handy feature in LabVIEW 2011 that makes me smile every time I use it. Who wants their signal of interest buried in noise or under other signals? Not I. Now you can see those signals with a quick flick of the right-click. For more on learning LabVIEW, check out the Sixclear Lucid LabVIEW Fundamentals Training (formerly Sixclear LabVIEW Fundamentals) course newly updated to LabVIEW 2011: sixclear.com.

(start transcription) "In LabVIEW 2011, there are some handy features for viewing plots on charts and graphs.
So I’m going to go back to this and get rid of this Increment function, run it again, and we see that my plots are right on top of each other. Obviously they are separated by color, but what if I want to view just one? Do I have to change the code? Well, in LabVIEW 2011, no. I’m just going to expand the plot legend, so I can see plots 0 and 1, and I can right-click on a plot, and choose to make it not visible. There we go. Now I can easily see plot 0, with plot 1 not there. Obviously, I can switch that around, too." (end transcription)
