I was testing some of these features and I second your opinion about x-axis gain: as far as I can understand the axis is always scaled in seconds and the correct gain applied must reflect your update rate (that is, to update every 10 seconds a gain of 10 must be applied, when you select "hours" in the gain list a gain of 3600 is applied). If I'm not wrong, this reflects also on points per screen paramter: to show 2 hours with an update rate of 10 seconds you must select 720 points per screen.
I am attaching a small project I developed for studying this item that may be of some help to you.
With respect to the time of update, you must consider the precision you are expecting on the strip chart: I don't know which is the exact update rate you have on your system, but with a 10 secs timebase even 0.1 secs difference in temperature acquisition may be below strip chart (and screen) resolution! If this item is crucial to you I would reconsider moving back to a xy graph scaled in time.
