ignore time stamp in a waveform chart or stack plots in a waveform graph

I have some problems with the make up of my application. I try to ignore the timestamp in the waveform chart, but it keeps tirning on when I feed the chart with the recorded waveform. Can this be fixed? Alternatively is it possibel to stack a waveform graph?

thanks

Hi Dahl,
 
Can you be a little more specific about why you are trying to ignore the timestamp in the wavefom chart, and what do you want on the X-scale instead of time? Maybe you can try to use "Waveform Graph" for showing your data instead.
You can Stack Plot by right click the Waveform chart and choose "Stack Plots".
 
I hope that's what you are asking for. You can also post your code and the recorded waveform, if this doesn't solve your problem.
 
Thanks!

HI Morini

Basically what I want to do is to sample 1 sec recording 10k Hz from 3 channels. I want to display this in a figure starting at time zero as the first sample (or ideally at sample 1000), and have the three channels on top of each other (stacked, not overlaied).

Basically I see two options either wavefrom chart or graph.
The chart is easily stacked. In the preferences the time strap can be flaged to be ignored, but somewhere the time stamp is not ignored when i clear the chart history and feed a new waveform into the chart. The ignore time stamp is unflagged in the preferences.
The graph easily ignores the time stamp, but I'm not sure if it is even possible to stack a graph (although I fail to see the rationale in making it unstackable, but I guess I dont realy appriciate the difference between the chart and graph).

best
Carsten
