Configure LabVIEW Waveform Chart to Leave Blank Space

I write a LabVIEW VI which continuously acquires data and generates the waveform. I want to leave a fixed blank space (around 20%) on the right side of the waveform graph when the VI is running.

  1. Deselect X Scale >> Auto Scale X.

  2. Create property node for waveform chart, select X Scale >> Range >> Maximum and Minimum

  3. Calculate the time used for generating the waveform and add the fixed space into the X Scale Maximum property.

The graph will leave fixed space during VI running.
