v1.1.0

The appearance of the peak measurement can be altered by selecting the 'Peak options' tab:

Unchecking the 'Lines' box will remove the black lines showing the base and extrapolation lines from the chart. This defaults to on when a peak is
measured.
Checking the 'Fill' box will fill the peak area with solid colour to make it more visible. This defaults to off when a peak is measured.
