No, I haven't but I can try it. Regarding reusing existing line --- I have understood that this will work only if the length of the line data does not change. In my case the data grows as more data points are acquired and I have not figured out how to make axes to set new limits after changing the line data. Currently I am using a work around where the axes are cleared after every 60 seconds - this seems to keep memory usage under control. It seems that Mike has resolved the problem. I'll try the latest SVN.. Thanks!
