Description

Crosshair tool price increments do not match Instrument Settings when settings are stated in 10's - 1/10, 1/100 etc.
Crosshair tool price increments do match Instrument settings when prices are stated in 1/8's - 1/4, 1/2 etc.

FDAX futures move in increments of .5 the required Instrument setting is 1/10, with this setting the Crosshair pointer tool prints increments of .1 in the Y - Price Scale which makes it difficult to assess correct price levels with the tool as it's a fast market with high volatility.

ES futures move in increments of .25 using the required 1/100 Instrument Setting the Crosshair tool states prices in increments of .01 in the Y -Price Scale, but if Increment settings are changed to 1/4 the tool prints prices in the correct increment of 1/4.
The same is true for Bond futures.

Steps to reproduce this issue

As Above.

This behavior is expected, crosshair is working this way by design and should not be moving using the instrument settings.
