Hi Sergei,

The different shades you see at the top are the "whiskers". To turn that 
of, go to the track controls (click on the title of the track above the 
display setting pulldown) and where you see "Windowing function", set it 
to just "mean".  For details, click on the "Graph configuration help" 
link on the track settings page.

So, the overlapping coords are not causing the color issue, however, 
they are an issue. You should not have overlapping coords.

For your last question, in the track controls you have "Data view 
scaling" set to "auto-scale".  Since the lowest values in you blue and 
red tracks is 0, 0 shows for those tracks. The 'black' track's lowest 
data point is 1, so that track uses 1. You can manually change this 
setting in the track controls by changing "Data view scaling" and 
"Vertical viewing range" settings.

If you have any additional questions, please reply to: [email protected]
