[Paraview] Scalar bar ranges jump around

[Bob Flandard]

Hello Utkarsh,

Thank you for the suggestion. The plot I sent has already implicitly
disabled "automatic label format" by only using the "Draw Annotations" and
"Automatic Annotation" options, with the options in the "Labels" section
unchecked. I tried explicitly unchecking the "Automatic Label Format" as
you suggested, but it has no effect in this instance (as expected).

Are you able to reproduce the effect from the attached state file?

Thanks for your help, Bob
