ASV Machine Pressure.

RE: ASV Machine Pressure.
I did what you suggested, but the smallest I can get it is 748k and the limit is 700k.  I don't know what to do.

RE: ASV Machine Pressure.
Just hover your cursor over the vertical line between the left column data and the charts, just to the left of the chart labels. You will see a double vertical line cursor with left and right arrows...drag to the right and the left becomes larger and the labels become single spaced.

Another way to adjust the chart height is in the menu File/Preferences/Appearance. The Graph Height can be set. Mine is set to 150, but this will vary for different screen resolutions. I also use text size of 10.

RE: ASV Machine Pressure.
Thank you, I figured it out!  However I still have the problem of size.  The shot I end up with pared down to the minimum is 748k and the forum has a maximum of 700k.

RE: ASV Machine Pressure.
That's odd. Are you using the F12 method of taking a screenshot, and uploading from My documents/Sleepyhead/Profiles/Screenshots? A typical Sleepyhead screenshot in PNG format is only 120 to 175 KB, not just mine but across the board. How are you taking screenshots?

No, I'm using shift-cmd-F4.  I remember not having this problem before but I've forgotten how I did it.  F12 by itself doesn't seem to work.  I also went to cp and clicked "manage attachments" but I couldn't seem to erase old attachments.  This damn stroke!

RE: ASV Machine Pressure.
I see you solved the problem...ignore below. The new graph looks great and is much smaller in kb.

Read my article on Organizing your screenshots. The method is there. On windows computers, you only need to press F12 for Fn+F12 if you need to use the function key. The screenshot will be automatically saved in My Documents/Sleepyhead/Screenshots.

For Macintosh F12 should work, or use the View menu and Take Screenshot.
It's important to keep "Link Graph Groups" checked (Mac only). As long as that's checked, when you zoom in on one of the daily graphs, all the daily graphs will zoom in the same amount. That's very useful when you need to look at more than one graph to see what's going on.

RE: ASV Machine Pressure.
I changed the mask to an older one and it made a huge difference.  I think there is something wrong with the new one so I'm going to keep the older mask.  AHI 2.92, H 16, LL 10, UA 9.  It bothers me that H is so high and I think I should change either EPAP or PSMin back to where it was.  What do you think?

RE: ASV Machine Pressure.
Larry, i think you're right that the lower pressure is letting in more UA and that suggests the obstructive apnea is not as well treated. i think you should return the EPAP to the higher level. Good call!
