Scale Settings reset on DOM with rollover/symbol change

Hi,

I have a few DOM's setup and I make them all look identical. This week I had to rollover some futures symbols to the newer contracts. Whenever I do this, my scale settings for my DOM's always reset and I need to re-enter them. For example, my scale settings number for ZN is 0.75, but if I change to the new symbol, it resets to 1.01 (or close to that), so everything is now squished together. I need to go into the scale settings, change it to the original number, and then it looks normal. It would be nice if I could assign a specific scale number to a specific product, so I wouldn't have to do this every rollover. Or if it could just remember the number and never change.

Thanks,

I am referring to the "range" value in the Scale Settings.

I've attached some images to show what I'm talking about. I manually set the "range" value so all my DOM's match. When I change the symbol (I rollover to the new contract), this number resets and I have to go into the scale settings and manually set the old value. I have to do this for every DOM.

I've attached an image of the scale setting before I rollover (0.75 for ZN), the number it changes to after I rollover, and a before and after picture of my DOM to show you what it does.
