: : When using the mouse to zoom into an area of a Gain

: : point of the Y-axes. Very ugly. : : Gary : Gary,
: When you do a mouse zoom that adjusts the
: starting date on this graph type, you are changing the data
: that you're viewing, since the gain is being
: plotted since the start of the graph date... Yes Mark, I know how what the program is doing.
I just don't like it. : This is a similar to the investment overlay
: that normalizes to 100% at the start of the graph. I don't use the investment overlay feature. But if
it has the same user-interface problem, well thats
not good. : Not sure a good solution for this... The graph
: is going to the correct scale as you've zoomed to,
: but the position of the data is different. A good suggestion might be to use Shift-Mouse zoom, in order to keep auto-scale on in the Y dimension, and only zoom in the X dimension. Thats not a good solution, because when I box in an
area with the mouse I'm looking for a graph to
contain that area. I don't want the full range on
the Y-axes. Too bad I don't have a good solution to recommend.
Maybe putting the Y-axes zero point midway on the
left side of the mouse box the user draws. I
certainly see how the mouse zoom and wanting always
to start the gain graph at zero is in conflict.
Oh well, its not a biggy. Gary
