After a while I guess it must become a bit of an obsession. You think "I've come this far and connected this many wires, I just have to finish it!"

THis one is a nice piece of art.  My 27" monitor was not wide enough to see the entire block diagram.

Definitely an authentic RG code.  Create 29 1D array, and then combine them to create a 2D array before sending it to a graph...  Instead of creating a 2D array and working with it.

Warning! DO NOT turn on the "Highlight Execution" and try to run this VI. My computer took a long vacation after that workout. Poor thing...

You do have to admit, It does have an elegant artistic beauty to it - when it is not your piece of code to debug!!!Smiley Happy
