Sets the tool that is currently selected on the graph palette. 0 is the selection cursor and 1 is the panning tool. 2-7 are the zoom tools: 2 is Zoom to Rectangle, 3 is X-zoom, 4 is Y-zoom, 5 is Zoom to Fit, 6 is Zoom Out about Point, and 7 is Zoom In about Point.

Note The Zoom to Fit tool zooms in or out to autoscale the graph or chart. Because the Zoom to Fit tool does not have a cursor, LabVIEW continues to display the cursor for the previous selected tool.
