Is it possible to reduce the height of the graph in investments? (Q Mac)
oldtimeone
I have more than enough stocks to fill the bottom listing and more. Can't get it all on the page without reducing the height of the graph. Height really doesn't matter as its all relative anyway.

Yes. This is not exactly a triumph of user interface design in Quicken Mac!
Under the graph, in the very center is a small dot...
When you click on it, your cursor becomes a double-sided arrow which you can drag up or down. You can reduce the size of the graph by dragging up, and you can make the graph disappear entirely by dragging high enough. (I usually leave my graphs hidden because it annoys me how long they take to render, and if they're hidden, you avoid the time delay.)

Sorry if I wasn't clear: you can reduce it to a fairly small size
or
make it disappear entirely, depending on how far up you drag the dot.

Thanks. I had wanted to reduce the graph permanently but making it go away is a reasonable answer.

If you reduce it to a smaller size, it always comes back to the original size

Ah, yes, you're right. I thought they had fixed that somewhere along the way. The opposite is not true: if you make the default graph taller, that setting will stick through clicking on different acocunts and restarting Quicken. I don't know why taller sticks, completely closed sticks, but a shorter setting doesn't stick.

You might want to take a minute to use Report a Problem on the Quicken Help menu to register a complaint that a shrunken graph setting doesn't stick. If several people do this, it might get the attention of the development team. A fix for this doesn't seem like it would be too complex.
