Trendlines moving when magnifying

Hi all, I am using MC easylanguage for a while (version 10 and now the beta 11), but I've always found a strange behaviour of trendlines: when magnifying the chart, the trandlines moves. For example, if I draw a trendline connecting 2 highs... last close is far from the trendline. If I enlarge the chart (the 2 connected highs are no more visible), the trendlines "moves" and in certain cases last close has already crossed the trendline! anyone with the same problem?

ok, so... in order to prevent the problem, the following actions can be taken:

make sure that the final anchor point is not in the "empty" space, where no prices are available. In case, just stop on the last bar then right extend the TL
change the format of the window in order to have the right empty space as "number of bars" and not as "percentage": in this way, even if the anchor point is in the empty space, no movement when magnifying happens

Happy to have solved this for me unacceptable error in MC.
Very good responsiveness of the MC support!
