What do the different colors mean in OSCAR under setting changes?

What do the different colors mean in OSCAR under setting changes?
Can anyone tell me what those different color stripes indicate? Anything? Normally you would associate green with good and red with bad, but I don't quite understand if it means anything at all here.

RE: What do the different colors mean in OSCAR under setting changes?
Hello Loofah,
The colors are used as a scale and they rank your different settings (Pressure and EPR) from best to worst in term of AHI. Dark green is your best result (lowest AHI), followed by light green (second best result). Dark red is your worst result (highest AHI), followed by light red (second worst result). Hope it helps!

RE: What do the different colors mean in OSCAR under setting changes?
I was lost with your question, until I realized you were referencing information provided at the bottom of the OSCAR "Statistics" page , under "Changes to Machine Settings". then I saw that the column for "AHI" indeed did follow the color code of:
"GREEN is Good", "RED is Not so good", "Pink (light red) is not as bad as RED" "Light Green not as good as GREEN, but better than Pink" "No color bar across the "Change to Machine" entry", your scores are between the two extremes of color ranges.

RE: What do the different colors mean in OSCAR under setting changes?
I am running OSCAR 1.5.0 (64-bit) on a Windows 10 machine and OSCAR 1.5.3 (64-bit) on a Windows 11 machine. The former has the light/dark green/red ranking of the impact of the different settings under the Changes to Device Settings on the Statistics page. The latter, however, simply highlights every third entry in the list of Changes to Device Settings.
With the introduction of 1.5.2 the ability to configure an alternating green-white background for rows on the Statistics page was implemented and there were various other improvements to the Statistics page, according to the Release Notes. I see no mention that the light/dark green/red ranking of the different settings was removed. Is that indeed the case? Jim

Look in Preferences > Appearance for configuring this option.

Red,
Thanks for the response. I see in File > Preferences > Appearance > Statistics--Alternating Color how one can control the display of light-green highlighting in rows. I have not been able to figure out how one controls the display of the red and green colors discussed in this thread. Jim |
