Perspective Hard Jumps

Using Powerchart with tags that only record on change. Power charge is making curves between points.

For example machine speed. yesterday it was changed from 100 to 50. Instead of a hard drop from 100 to 50 it then created a long diagnal line between the last two points that made it seem as though it was slowely changed down. How do i get it to represent it more of a hard cut way?

Look at Deadband Style. Set to Discrete.

This resolved it! I actually did it the long way by changing the value in the DB directly (querymode) based on some breadcrumbs i found. Thank you.

To clarify the deadband style is what fixed it.
