Click in the field to create a graph according to which the load will be simulated. To delete a point, right-click it and choose Remove point. You can also clear the entire graph by selecting Clear.

To change the maximum number of users or the length of the test, right-click in the field and select Change Max Rate or Change Duration.
To edit the load in a separate resizable window, right-click and select Open in popup window. This window is resizable, so it is easier to make minor adjustments to the test shape.
