Just a follow-up on this problem...

I've found now that the index is only off if the plot is zoomed, and in the
following way.  When I zoom, the first point that is visible in the plot
window will have index = 0, the next point will have index = 1, and so
forth.  If I zoom another section of the points, the indices are "reset" in
this same way.

What's really bizarre is that this is only occurring on one plot.  When I
try to reproduce the problem on other plots (so far at least), I can't.

Any suggestions for how to chase this down would be very welcome.

Thanks.
