3D surface plot of updates and customization

Hi all

I use a lot of 3D surface to display a set of data over time, frequency and amplitude as x, y and z axes. I have a few general comments and questions about the use of this plot, I hope to get answers to

1. is it possible to remove part of the plot? The framework to display 3D land surface is in the default "modern" style. In 'user defined' view, the color can be set transparent and it is deleted as expected. Next time I start the program, the borders are back to "modern".

I'll have this flag on a tabbed style system page, and it seems not very nice to have the modern control it. The same effect is seen with color map legend, but affecting this one transparent will make it gray.

2 How to move or resize the map colour legend?

3 is excluded from the function "reporter Panel" updated graphic plots 3D? I don't want the Panel before updating while I bring new data in the 3D graphic, but even if I bring updates of front panel updated the graph, it's still visible new data are drawn.

4 logarithmic axes overrides the settings of the axis.  If I have a no logarithmic scale, I can set the range of 0.4 Hz to 11 Hz. If I change to logarithmic scale, the balance with these parameters is displayed as 0.1 Hz to 100 Hz. It's really annoying because it gives little space to manually select the scale. I don't see the reason why I can not select who will use. Major/minor ticks also have nothing to say when the axis is logarithmic, it seems.

5. is there a way to get a graphic palette in projection mode? I want the user to be able to switch to the display of plance XY and zoom. The cursor only I get is the 'hand' that usually leaves me not to do anything. The way I've implemented zoom now is to have a XY chart under the 3-d chart that the user can zoom.

6 non-visible cursors in projection mode. I have a slider that is represented by a y - z plan in the view "user defined". When I go to XY projection this slider left. (maybe it's my bad settings)

7. How can I get a render of the 3D surface plot window without stopping the VI?

I hope that these issues have really easy answers, of preference I did something weird which is easy to fix.

I appreciate all the comments on these issues. I added some screenshots to clearify.

Dear blueprint,

Thank you very much for your message on our weforum. Please note that this is not a regular indicator. This is called control X. This means that a lot of Labview code is suspended under sub. Please find the files at the following location;

C:\Program NIUninstaller Instruments\LabVIEW 2009\vi.lib\Math Plots\3D Math Plots\3D Surface\3D Surface XCtrl

This explains why certain properties of normal control are not available and you are unable to move the different items. You are able to make adjustments on it, so be sure of the frame surrounding the transparent plot for example. What I would recommend is to make a copy of the previously mentioned location;

-Copy the files in the user.lib directory, maybe also, it is best to create a copy of a zip file.

-open project files and replace the objects of the project by those of the new location

-facade.vi should be visible; You can open it and the transparent plotframe.

-You can also show the graphic palette

I hope this will bring you further. Best regards
