[Ifeffit] plot multiplier in Athena

Dear Bruce,
Since the 2 or 3 latest athena versions, I have noticed a somewhat
strange behavior of the
'plot multiplier' command in athena. I'm using the latest horae and
iffefit releases on linux (Madriva 2007) and windows (XP, SP3).
The plot multiplier works for chi and fourier-transformed spectra, but
fails for xanes and xmu spectra:
changing the plot multiplier to a value different from 1 makes no
effect of the last two types of spectra.
In contrast, 'y-axis offset' command works for all types of spectra.
Personally, I found the possibility to multiply xanes spectra extremely
convenient (as far as I remember, it worked in older than 2006 versions
of athena....),
for example for quick comparison and superposition short-energy range
XANES spectra
for which the athena energy normalisation procedures do not work
perfectly in some cases.
Best regards
Happy New Year
