problem with xyplot for constant y values

Post by tsitko » Thu Aug 23, 2018 3:56 pm

Greetings - When I use an XYPlot that has the same "y" values for each x, the plot is drawn with extremely large bars which almost make it look like a solid bar across all the x values. If I add a datapoint (0,0), the bars will be displayed at a normal size.

I've attached two images - one with the dummy value added, and one without.

I've also attached the code that produced both of these. I *think* it has something to do with the renderer, but I just can't seem to find what's causing this.
