Graph View

This will show you any weight, body fat score, or ACTH test result entries plotted on a graph so that you can visually assess your horse’s progress. On the bottom axis the dates that the medication dose has changed are shown by a syringe icon – if you hover over this icon you can view the medication dose on that date.

Below the chart you can select the time period over which you would like to view your diary entries.
