Hi all,

I submitted a bug report to RSI. The support engineer was able to
reproduce the problem and has passed the problem on to developers for
fixing. So it seems it is an actual bug. Hopefully it will get fixed
soon.

It looks like a bug to me. I tried positioning and
scaling the axes using a different method from yours,
and I have the same problem whenever the log axis is
set to EXACT. Let us know what RSI tells you.
