Width Number of data points used in smoothing for peak detection
before integration. This value is automatically calculated by
the software if you select Use Resolution Dependent Settings
on the Basic Settings tab. For more information, see

be detected.
Hint: If you manually set Filter Width, set to a number equal
to the number of points across the peak. To determine the
number of points across a peak, you can change the trace
display from Line to Vertical Bars. Each vertical bar
represents one data point. For more information, see
