Hi All I have a series of XY co-ordinates in SQL. I would like to plot a 2D profile by drawing lines between each point. e.g. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/f/e/fe6d0788007928710f3877d390c67e188cf44916.png) Is it possible to display a dynamic 2D profile in ignition? A quick internet search brings up several Python projects. Does anyone have experience of creating this functionality within Ignition? Any pointers on where to start? Any help would be great. Thanks ---

Here’s one to mess around with. This particular one will let you paste the sting into the text box. The script in the canvas will process the data, draw it, and populate the table.
