is it document mistake about "scale" option of XStream?

Hi all,

I checked the document "dfoaAdopt.pdf" chapter "Migrating from PIPO to XStream ", and I found that "scale" option is not support in current XStream Options, but I can get the "scale" option in "strmout -h".

The "scale" option is not found of "strmout -h" in i/6.18.100, but found in ic/6.18.240 and icadv_20.10.300

So I want to ask that is it the document mistake?

    The issue is that scale doesn't mean the same between the IC5141 stream out and IC618 stream out. In IC5141 scale is effectively the inverse of the dpuPerUU option in IC618, whereas scale in IC618 is a scale factor.

    So the documentation is correct.
