If I am understanding correctly, you can do this by selecting max or min for the y-axis aggregation.

If you have multiple documents with rat5, rat6, rat7, etc, that map to different values, then it will pick up the largest value. Perhaps that is why you see all 1's?

If you go to the Discover tab and sort your data by value, what are the largest values that show up for each ratio?
