Graphs can display plots that contain any number of points of the following data types:

  • A single array of values. Graphs interpret array data as points on the graph and increment the x index by one starting at x = 0.
  • A cluster with an array of x values and an array of y values.
  • A 2D array of values, where each row of the array is a single plot.
  • An array of plots, where each plot is a cluster that contains an array of x values and an array of y values.
  • An array of clusters of plots, where a plot is an array of points and a cluster contains an x and a y value.
  • A cluster of x, delta-x, and an array of y values.

Graphs do not support the following functionality:

  • Duplicate scales
  • Grids
  • Plot legends

Waveform graphs do not support the following functionality:

  • Horizontal scroll bars

Use the Zoom Chart or Graph VI to add zoom functionality to any graph in a Mobile application.

Plots on Waveform Graphs

You can display multiple plots on waveform graphs. Plotting more than 32,000 elements is unsupported. If you attempt to plot more than 32,000 elements, the first element of the array overwrites all points between 32,000 and 64,000. The waveform repeats every 64,000 elements. After the first 32,000 elements are plotted, the first element repeats 32,000 times.

The number of plots in the Plots shown numeric control in the Waveform Graph Properties dialog box must equal the actual number of plots or the application behaves incorrectly. The maximum number of plots is eight.

Plots on XY Graphs

Autoscaling the Y-axis for multi-plot XY graphs is not supported. Only one plot shows at a time if you enable autoscaling. You must disable autoscaling if you want multiple plots on an XY graph.
