In addition to the capabilities that apply to both graphs and charts, LabVIEW includes certain graph-specific capabilities.

Each graph includes customizable options that you can change to match your data display requirements. For example, you can modify the behavior and appearance of graph cursors or configure graph scales. Figure 17. Graph Components shows the elements of a graph.

Note The Plot Legend, Cursor, Scale Legend, Cursor mover, Cursor Legend, and Graph Palette do not apply to the 3D graphs.

You can add the plot legend, scale legend, cursor legend, graph palette, and label by right-clicking the graph, selecting Visible Items from the shortcut menu, and selecting the appropriate element.
