5% is noticeable unless the graph is under 20 pixels tall. Even then, dithering or antialiasing techniques could make it visible.

There are people here who didn't even notice the axis and are confused. How do you expect everyone to notice a 5% drop lol.

Well if they didn't even notice an axis on a graph, they might be too stupid for a graph...

My point was only to say that 5% is very mich visible on a 0-100% graph.

My point is that it is hardly visible and doesn't show the exact numbers properly. I prefer the current style of graph for showing sudden changes if the previous data points isn't that important in the context. But everyone has their preference I suppose.
