Show calculated ceiling: Doesn't seem to change irrelevant what settings I use

On my dive log I like to show the dive computer reported ceiling AND the
calculated ceiling. I've just updated to 4.8.3 (Windows) and see that my
calculated ceiling is being drawn at 30/75 (I think i had it set at 30/85
before) but when I change my GFs for the calculated ceiling the chart
doesn't seem to change at all. If I switch the calculated ceiling to VPM+3
then it does move but if I change the VPM conservatism factor the
calculated ceiling again doesn't seem to change so there seems to be just
one GF and one VPM conservatism factor used for the show calculated ceiling.

Can anyone else reproduce the same issue?

Thanks

Yes, can reproduce, is its definitely a bug. Can you open an issue on
GitHub?

Logged to GitHub. The default template on GitHub also helped me to provide
more info. 4.8.1 works fine on macOS (I think 4.8.2 is fine too but can't
100% confirm yet) whereas 4.8.3 displays the bug on both Windows and macOS
so not an OS related bug.
