Showing Plot Points
When the Show plot points option is enabled, which is the default, the
graph highlights the values on the graph that represent the actual
retrieved values from the device by drawing a symbol on each of these
points. 3Com Network Director draws the complete graph by linking
each of these points using straight lines.
In some cases, for example, if you have configured a large history period
or if you have resized the detailed graph so that it is much smaller, the
plot points may obscure the detail in the graph.Disabling this option hides
the symbols on the plot points.
The difference in clarity can be seen below:

the graph as it is currently displayed as a PNG (Portable Network
Graphics) file.
Selecting this option launches a Save dialog box, from which you can
enter a filename, and choose which directory to save the file to:
