Axiom v23.2.1 - ScaleMode selection bug

Situation:  Editing a large application containing 33 TrendGraph Control Children (each TrendGraph with 4 to 17 pens).

Issue: When trying to change the ScaleMode of any of the the "pens" from the default "Auto" to any other ScaleMode from the pop-up(or pull-down) menu, I find the list is now populated with various tag names (e.g., WGBB0304, WGBB0404, WIT_DB0104_WG, etc.) rather than any of the possible ScaleModes (i.e., "Auto", "AutoMax", "AutoMin", "Man").

TEMPORARY SOLUTION: The only way to obtain the desired ScaleMode is to use Notepad to edit the ASCII application file (sampleapplication.AxiomApp2).

SUSPECTED ISSUE:  I think this application is so large it is overflowing the memory space used to populate the pop-up/pull-down menu for the ScaleMode.

PERSONAL COMMENT: It would NOT be my choice to create an application containing this many trend charts. As a system integrator we have been asked to re-create existing PI ProcessBook graphics the client is currently using to an Axiom application.

    Hi ,

    I think the number of tags is causing the list to grow so large that it cannot properly display all of the options which include using another tag's scale. Instead of setting the scale through that interface, you could try right-clicking on the scale itself for a particular tag. That will also allow you to set the scale. If you are wanting to manually set it or choose AutoMin or AutoMax, you can simply type in the desired min or max or both. That will have the same effect.
