When graphing data over 24 hours the resolution of the graph increases with the width of the graph.  What function controls this?  For example if my graph has a width of 640 I might have a max value of 150 but if I increase the width to 1500 I will have a max value of 250.  If there a way to adjust how this works.  In my case I want to see max response times of our service over 24 hours per api endpoint. We have a lot of endpoints so I want to make a dashboard with a lot of small graphs.  When we use the small graphs however the max value is washed out.  I hope this make sense.
