Can you help me with an Issue with a column chart that happens when scale is set to log?

Hello,

In Splunk 7.1.6, column chart restrict the Y axis scale to 1 when using log scale. (for linear working fine)

I am not setting up max value = 1 for Y axis but still it restrict to 1 even though values are greater than 1.

See the attachment for better understanding. In Splunk 7.0.3 its working as per expectation.

It isn't a bug. All of your data is closer to 1 than to 10 so it is begin displayed rounded down to 1. What else would you have it do?

Even value is 9, it still show max scale as 1. I don't see any reason for rounding here. It was correct in earlier version.

Sorry, this definetly is a bug. Why should rounding be even considered in this case. Something has to be buggy here.

I have tried raising the value for D to 20, which leads to a correct scaling again. If you then lower the D value gradually (15, 12, 11, 10) and execute the search again, the scaling still remains correct. As soon as D is below 10 again, scaling is broken. BUT if you go up to 10, 11 again, it remains broken, until you reach 12.

This cannot be intended to work that way.

Agreed, I'd open a support ticket and get it filed.
