Tomek,
afaik it is not possible to "break graph plotting" itself. here is why:
plotting a graph is usually nested in one function. since this function
is provided by CVI, you have no chance to modify the function. within
the function, there is no method to interrupt the plotting to compute
other things.
in general, if you want to compute things while staying in another
function "ProcessSystemEvents()" is the function you have to call in
your function. this does not work here because the plot-function is
already built without it in it. another way of using functions in
parallel is multithreading.
if drawing the plot takes too much time for you, there are several ways to solve this:
a) the larger the graph, the slower the update. make the graph smaller
b) the more points you display the slower the update. reduce the number of points to be displayed.
c) if you do not need to know about the previous plots, you can choose
to use canvas instead of a graph. canvas is often much faster than
graph since canvas does not need to store data for each plot (for
scrolling, cursor, ...).
