Requires: Full Development System
Generates a plot of vertical bars.
![]()  | Note This VI appears on the block diagram when you add a Bar plot to the front panel. You can find the Bar plot on the 3D Graph palette. | 
Use the pull-down menu to select an instance of this VI.

![]()  | 
y vector is a 1D array that specifies the y-coordinates of the bars you want to plot. If you wire y vector the length of y vector must equal the length of z matrix. | 
![]()  | 
error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality. | 
![]()  | 
z matrix is a 2D array that specifies the heights of the bars you graph. If you do not specify y vector the y-axis scale equals the size of (z matrix, 1). | 
![]()  | 
3D Plot lvclass Array out is the graph of the 3D plot. | 
![]()  | 
error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality. |
