Issue Details

I’ve got multiple y scales in my waveform chart. I want to move them the left by 3 grid squares to improve the user experience. I’ve searched all over the menus but can’t figure out how to move it. Would you know how to do that?

 

Solution

To do that, you have to use a property node to set the following waveform chart or graph properties, in order:

  1. Active Y Scale
  2. Y Scale > Position > Left. Increasing the value moves the Y scale to the right, whereas decreasing moves it to the left. 

 

Additional Information

The position value is relative to the front panel origin coordinates (0,0 at the top left corner). Moving the graph horizontally impacts the value needed to position the Y scale in relation to the graph control.
