laffo16 1 Posted September 29, 2008 (edited) has anyone improved upon this code? when i rattle with the window the graphs speed increases. window size reshape would be nice. its pretty CPU intensive i find or is this standard? i get crash while launching if my CPU is to high. very nice though. decreasing line thickness makes the lines disapear at points which is a shame.
