Wrong x-y pair pops up when hovering over a data point in a scatter plot

Hi

I have the problem that my scatter plots in my Dashboard studio dashboards show the wrong value pairs when I hover over a data point. It hampers my ability to read my graphs right.

Sometimes it seems like I get a wrong placement of the decimal separator. Eg, I get the x-y pair for x = 34.4 when the x axis reads 344. Other times, I just get different x-value than what the x-axis reads. It seems like the x-value increments like it should when I move the cursor along the axis except for when the value jumps. If I have several curves on a plot, one curve may show the right x-y-values wherever I put the cursor on the curve, but the others may be wrong in each their own unique way. If I have only one graph, it seems to work fine. 

Note that the curves look like they should. It is only the values that pop up when I hover over the datapoints that are strange.

When I click "open in search" and choose the scatter plot visualisation, I get the right x-y pairs for all curves.

Is it a known issue, and is there a workaround?

I have close to 10k datapoints in my plots. Might that be an issue with this functionality?

I will be happy to provide more info and details as needed to solve the issue.
