In my pre-NI days, I had a lot of fun trying to coax image-manipulation and
-analysis behavior out of LabVIEW intensity graphs. You can do a fair
amount by making use of cursors and hotkeys and creating pseudo-overlays by
setting image coordinates to certain colors to create visual cues in
response to user inputs.
That being said, I never considered trying to get complex ROI (region of
interest) info from a user wi
th an intensity graph, and I'll bet it's a
pretty tough GUI trick unless you're using IMAQ Vision. If you find
yourself trying to build features like this into your application, or doing
a lot of image manipulation in general, you might save yourself time in the
long run by getting the IMAQ Vision toolkit from NI.

I'm not aware of a way to suppress the built-in context-sensitive popup
menus. Sorry!
