Graph's property in SubVi doesn't take effect on MainVI?

[yoppy]

Hello,

I have a main-vi which uses a sub-vi. The sub-vi is displaying graph. I have customized the property of the graph in SubVI, ie. the XScale and cursor position. This setting does take effect on the graph of the sub-vi. However, it doesn't take effect on the graph of main-vi.

Must I set the property of the graph from main-VI?

Is there any way to get what I want by  setting only from Sub-VI?

Thank you.

Hello,

the SubVI doesn't set the propertys for the Graph in MainVI because it doesn't know that it should do it.

To set the properties of a graph in the MainVi you can use a refernece:

Main.vi:

Sub.vi:

Hey yoppy,

NWOmason is correct, in that the easiest way to do this is by passing a reference to the sub VI. Here is an article on how to do this if you need more information. Have a great day!
