This will be resolved in the next release. It was rather complex. It would not surprise us, if there were issues in the past. Which will be resolved in the next release coming out now.

It is a subtle problem, involving the precision between four byte and eight point floating-point values. As we convert to 8 byte floating-point values in the program, there was a very slight comparison problem that was getting significantly magnified, when there was a calculation of the number of bars needed in the current view based on this type of scaling and the changes to it. Effectively there was no change in the number of bars but a different spacing was getting applied. Sometimes bar spacing can change, but does not change the number of the bars in the chart. Now the number of bars in the chart actually has to be determined to be changed, with this type of scaling before a new calculation for bar spacing is applied.
