Ticket #4977 (closed: duplicate)
Waterfall plots don't play well with log scales

Description
Creating a waterfall plot and then changing the Y-scale to logs causes only the first curve to be updated. However, after resizing the plot all of the other curves are updated.
There is also an issue with using the offset dialog. It uses percentages which don't work very well in a log scale. A constant multiplier would be better if the axis is set to log.

It was Rob Dalgliesh who brought this up and he'd be keen for a fix for the next release.

I've completed ticket #3246 now. If Rob wants to check out that it meets his needs, it would be handy if he could do so before next Wednesday - after which I'll be away until after the next release.

This is essentially a duplicate of #3246, though I'm wouldn't expect to look at it any time soon unless there's a strong demand. There are some comments there about why I'm not especially keen to go there.
BTW, the % inputs are slightly misleading - it is a constant offset, but a constant offset according to the data value rather than pixels - which of course doesn't work well if it's a log scale.
