polar grids in XY grpah (just like default rectangular grids)

I want to plot a realtime data of voltage vs time in polar format. I want the polar grids to be dynamic (for eg., rectangular grids in XY graph, which change as I zoom the XY Graph). 

 

I have tried "polar plot with points function" and XY graph. I have been successful in plotting the graph. But zoom functionality is very high priorty as it could be hours of data on same polar plot.

 

Problem with "Polar Plot function":-

It gives output as picture unlike XY Graph. I haven't been able to zoom this picture output as we do with XY Graph.

 

Problem with "XY Graph Function":-

I plot the static grid. I plot the real time graph too, but independently. When I try to plot realtime on static grid that I made, it erases the grid and only plot remains. If I try to bundle this realtime plot with other static plots (grids) and plot it just plots it as a static against the grid.

 

I am attaching my files please take a look. I am using LabVIEW 2013.
I have read many forum discussions on this forum bu they don't solve my problem. I am stuck in this problem since some days now, so any help would be appreciated. Its my first post at this forum, so any feedback on my post too will be appreciated.

I bundled all the static graphs (i.e. grids for polar graph) and bundled it with the realtime data and fed it into XY Graph and it works.

Can you post your vi for this?  i want to do something similar but i'm not sure how to do it.

 

Thanks,
