I have mine set to half span
that way I don't loose everything I'm seeing I just get another 1/2 screen worth of the spans width added in the direction I am tuning.
I generally run either 10kc or 200kc spans.

It's set to Full-Span, and every time I tune off the edge, I get the
next full span, up or down.  When this anomaly occurs, it is usually [as
in almost always] a 5KHz shift.  If the left edge was at 1.040, it will
become 14.045 and the right edge will become 14.065  I've never seen it
actually do it, I just notice that it has occurred.  It's no big deal,
I'm just curious what is going on.

I run my P3 in fixed-tune mode [span edges stay fixed, cursor moves as I
tune].  Every now and then, the span edges will jump in frequency.  For
example, with span=20KHz and edges=21.020/21.040, at some point the
edges will be 21.025/21.045  I've never caught it in the act and I can't
make it happen, it just does it when I'm not watching.  Anyone know
what's going on?
