XP to windows 7, digital waveform graph does not show 0 and 1

Hello,

strange problem.

i have a exe created in xp LV 8.5, same exe installed on windows 7 works perfectly fine except that the digital waveform graphs donot show 0s and 1s written on the graph as it shows in xp

so, i copied the same data and supplied to a graph in win 7, it shows the numbers.

is windows 7 disabling this feature? 

 

Thanks

If you can attach a simplified VI showing the graph with some data, that would help.

 

But I'm going to take a wild guess that it is related to the font size changes that occurred between XP and either Vista or Win 7.  The newer OS's had their default font size be just a bit larger.  Maybe the text would show up in the XP app because the default windows font size was just small enough to be able to fit, while in Win7, the font size it just larger enough that LabVIEW winds up hiding the data because it doesn't fit.

the top graph is from an win 7 running an exe built in xp which shows numbers if ran in xp system but not in win 7

bottom graph is the one i just selected on a win 7 dev system.

In the top, the lines are much closer together causing the waveforms to be rather short.  It makes sense there isn't room for the 0 or 1 digits to fit in there.

 

Meanwhile the bottom one has only 5 lines and are plenty tall enough.
