Stop Refreshing a plotted graph on worksheet

[mthapar-2]

I have created several X-Y plots on my worksheet, and if I scroll the worksheet then the graph is redrawn or refreshed. Is there an option to continue to display the plotted graph as it is and only refresh after pressing F9 or some other key? Thank you for your help. Mangat

Thank you Stuart for your suggenstions. The options you mentioned remove the graphic display leaving the empty chart frame. A good option would be to leave the graphs as they are and not refresh them every time mouse moves. If there is such an option, then I would love to know. Thanks, Mangat

If your plots take time because of the calculations involved,(such as numerical intergration for each point) it is really aggravating. In that case, I use a range variable and construct my own points for plotting, 10 20 30, whatever. Then the calcuations are fast and so is the plot. You can still use trace and if needed add specific calculation point(s). This is nice if you want the find extrema using max and min and don't rquire a lot of significant figures. Wayne
