Point and Figure Chart + Point and Figure Study + Reversal Marker not working

Hello,
Problem Description:
As soon I add the Point and Figure Chart study (to show the X's and O's) to a Point and Figure chart (Bar Period and Study both set to 25x3) the Point and Figure Chart Reversal Marker Study loses it's value and shows either -18.75 or +18.75, not the actual price where a reversal would be printed.

I tried to just have a duplicated PnF chart without the Point and Figure Chart Study and use the Study/Price Overlay to get the reversal price onto my real Point and Figure chart, but this is not working either - my chart is printing X's and the reversal price marker is above the X's while it should be below to show where the chart will start printing O's.

Screenshot of the two charts attached, as well as the Chart Book.
Chart 1 is a 25x3 with only the Point and Figure Chart Reversal Marker Study
Chart 2 is a 25x3 with the Point and Figure Chart Reversal Marker Study and the Point and Figure Chart study

Let me know if I can help with further information.

Do not use the "Point and Figure" study. That is an old study that has not been kept up and the problem you are seeing is related to it.

Set up your chart to be a Point and Figure with the Bar Period, and then to get the X's and O's set the "Chart >> Chart Settings >> Bar Period >> Graph Draw Type" to "Point and Figure XO"

Got it, thank you. Will try it - I probably would've figured that out, I actually checked for it.
When using the Menu Bar Chart > Graph Draw Types the X/O option is not there, that's where I looked
