I thought you had mentioned not to use the Ansi Editor for a while until you had it dialed in. Maybe you had done so on the 11.6 update and/or saving length at 0 would be ok to do .. I'll give it a shot for sure, thats normally how I fix these issues.

Yes setting a pipe code PO at the beginning normally fixes the issue also, but did not in this case.
