Window position - Profile feature is broken.

How can I reverse the numbers displayed on a Fibonacci Retracement?

When I use the Fibonacci drawing tool in MT4, it draws the ratio numbers backwards, starting with 1.00 (I deleted the higher ratios), then .618, .50, .382 and then 0. I want it to start with 0, then .382, .50, .618 and then 1.0 and so on. I found that if I edit the properties and swap the start and
