Scatterplot rounding causes clipped coordinates in log plots
Reported by @pabloarosado
Problem
In the example plot below, we see that the first four x positions that data points exactly match the rounded values (0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04). This means that the data is being clipped to two significant figures, but this leads to an inaccurate layout for small data points when using a log plots.

Marking as "nice to have" since it affects only a few log scatter plots, and only some of the data on those plots.

Is this fixed @larsyencken
IOt's not getting flattenened off by the looks of it
Maybe another log level down qwould be nice: if (vals need iy) { go to 0.001% }
@toni-sharpe true, this seems to be fixed by now :). Closing this
