===Event Flags===
[[File:OSCAR event flags.PNG|thumb|center|1000px|Event Flags]]<br />
The Event Flags graph normally appears at the top of the stack. It shows each event (Obstructive Apnea ('''''OA'''''), Central Apnea/Clear Airway ('''''CA'''''), Hypopnea ('''''H'''''), Large Leak ('''''LL'''''), etc.) as a vertical bar. You can select which events to display using the event flag selector at the bottom left of the chart area. The available flags will vary depending on your machine. The graphical display of events is useful in determining whether they occurred at a particular time, in clusters, or spaced throughout the night.
Each event type in the Event Flags graph will have a corresponding entry in the sidebar summary area.

First, Events only show if you have had them at some point, OSCAR remembers. If you have NEVER had a Clear Airway/Central Apnea event ('''''CA''''') recorded, none will show. The same for RERAs ('''''RE'''''), though not all machines report RERAs.

====Issue - Positional Apnea====
It is normally detected by '''clusters of Obstructive and Hypopnea events''' usually associated with an uneven and smaller/narrower Flow Rate chart.
