I re-activated an old goal, but now the graph looks horrible! Is there a way for me to start from scratch? Or at least reset the graph to the day I re-activated the goal? ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/beeminder/original/1X/501ca48e4c190869424472a0e998605fe78adbd8.png) ---

You can set the x-axis minimum on the graph to the date you re-activated the goal under Terrifyingly Advanced settings on the goal. This has the same effect as if you had checked the "[fresh start" button](https://www.dropbox.com/s/xv6ijsq06dpwbrp/Screenshot%202016-01-24%2014.47.23.png?dl=0). ---
