I think I figured it out. It hink ptcgraph was not designed with that
functionality in mind. If you take a look at the ptcgraph unit, it has
initialization and finalization sections where the ptc wrapper object is
created and freed. That happens only at application start and finish not
during run, as you require.
As a workaround, you can manually take care of the ptcwrapper object
like this, in between closegraph and initgraph calls, but first ask
yourself, do you really need this?
[...]
//close graph window
ptcgraph.Closegraph;
//manually terminate the ptcwrapper thread and free object
PTCWrapperObject.Terminate;
PTCWrapperObject.WaitFor;
PTCWrapperObject.Free;
//manually create the ptcwrapper thread
PTCWrapperObject := TPTCWrapperThread.Create;
//init graph windows as usual
ptcgraph.Initgraph(gd,gm,'');
[...]

I ran into an unexpected issue with ptcgraph. If I use closegraph, I
cannot re-open a new ptcgraph window with Initgraph. It looks like it
opens the second graph window but then closes it immediately after.. my
program is then appears to be locked up after this happens.. no errors,
just locked up. test program is below. If I comment out ptcgraph and
ptccrt and uncomment graph and wincrt, it works as expected.
