Using exactly the same Chartbook in both versions I saw the following behavior.

1. Version 1205: When live trading the Russell 2000 (ICE) [F.US.TFEZ14] on a 1205 DOM, I left click on the Sell column at a price far above the current ask, and as a result a sell limit order gets placed exactly at that price. [This is CORRECT]

2. Upgrade 1205 using the Help Menu --> Download Current Version (New Spreadsheets); SC is now 1213.

3. Version 1213: When live trading the Russell 2000 (ICE) [F.US.TFEZ14] on a 1213 DOM, I left click on the Sell column at a price far above the current ask, and as a result a sell limit order gets placed at a price 1 tick BELOW the clicked price. [This is NOT CORRECT]

Note 1: On the corresponding buy limit order entry procedure, the order-price is also 1 tick below the clicked-price.
Note 2: 1213 does not exhibit this behavior in SC local Sim mode.

This will be fixed in the next release. It is a problem with rounding. The new interface to CQG requires prices be sent as integers and not as floating-point numbers.
