When saving graphs in ResultsViewer to png image format, I have noticed that the ResultsViewer shipped with OpenStudio 1.8.0 produces much poorer quality than in previous release(s). See an example:

Here the legend is missing and the text descriptions are poorly legible. Compare this with a screenshot of the same graph:

Have I perhaps overlooked some (new) user or system settings to avoid this or is this a software glitch ?

My operating system is Windows7 32bit with OpenStudio 1.8.0 + separately installed EnergyPlus 8.3.0 (because bundled EnergyPlus crashes; cf. issue reported. ).

Well, using ResultsViewer is very easy and convenient. I have not tried (standard) reporting measures yet, but then the question arises, how flexible and easy-to-use it is to define specific graphs or plots without having to write own measures...?
