Polar Plot with Point Options VITakes a picture and polar data and appends a picture that represents a polar graph of the data. This VI can represent polar data as points or lines between points.Smith Plot VITakes a picture and the data for a Smith plot and appends a picture that represents the Smith plot of the data.Smith Multi Plot VITakes a picture and an array of Smith plots and appends a picture that represents the superimposed Smith plots of the data.Normalize Smith Plot VITakes data for a Smith plot and normalizes it, meaning that the data is scaled relative to a known value.Plot XY VITakes a picture and an array of points and appends a picture that represents an XY graph of the data.Plot Multi-XY VITakes a picture and an array of plots and appends a picture of an XY graph of the data with the plots overlaid on the same graph.Plot Waveform VITakes uniformly distributed data and a picture and creates a new picture that represents a waveform graph of the data.Radar Plot VITakes a picture and an array of plots and appends a picture that represents the radar plot of the data.Draw Legend VITakes a picture and adds a legend to the picture.Calc Scale Specs VITakes a specification for a Cartesian style scale and calculates the coordinates and labels to use for the scale.Draw Scale VIDraws a scale onto a picture.Map Setup VIUses pixel and data ranges to determine scale factors such that (a * data value) + b is the pixel value that corresponds to that data value.Map Value to Pixel VIUses the domain value and the cluster returned by the Map Setup VI to determine a pixel value corresponding to that domain value.Map Pixel to Value VIUses the pixel value and the cluster returned by the Map Setup VI to determine the domain value corresponding to that pixel value.Parent topic: Graphics & SoundWas this information helpful?YesNo
