The error margins use a percentage of the maximum value of a
data series 
in both directions. This is the same behavior than in the
old chart.

The images are missing. Can you put them somewhere on the
web? Or if you 
are sure it is an issue, please submit an issue where you
attach the 
images for illustration.

Sorry, without the images I have no idea what the
"things" are.

And why did you write "wizard" in the subject? I
suppose it is not 
involved in this issue, apart from using it to create the
initial chart.
