CHANGED: When chart is selected, the left/right arrows keys now change the shift value rather than adjust the right margin. The right margin can now be adjusted dynamically by clicking the M key with or without the Shift key, or by clicking the R key to enter a value.

CHANGED: Leaving the Alert Proximity% value empty on any of the scans that use this setting causes TCScan+ to ignore this setting.

CHANGED: Printed charts and picture of the main form (in results printing) now have a margin around them.
