 The constellation sink also has the ability to trigger, which is based off
the magnitude of the incoming complex sample.

https://gnuradio.org/doc/doxygen/classgr_1_1qtgui_1_1const__sink__c.html#a5b74b15a8807014eb85964a26d2b6d01

Set the trigger mode to TRIG_MODE_NORM and the level of the signal
magnitude you want to trigger off of. If you've set the number of points to
576 and it triggers off the first sample, that should display and hold the
plot until the next trigger action.
