Bob I have/had the same idea, but think that wont work as desired, as 
it will display (even invisble) the old line to old high / lows, 
which are differnt and could be much higher lower in last day - 
therefore the screen will not have a desire width of 10BPS - I dont 
offer a better solution :-((
