See the following screenshot links

Notice that on the 5 range chart it shows the ray going thru the lower high (near the 31 tick marker). Notice that the ray is meeting price in a different way on the 3 range chart.

In the 2nd screenshot, the ray is shown meeting price near the top of the 15min bar near the previous day's low (the red dashed line) but the range bar chart shows the ray coming in at a totally different place. This seems like a bug.

Is this normal? Is this just a function of using range bars somehow or is this a bug?

Hello toddaclark,

Unfortunately this can be expected when using different intervals in charts. The line will be applied as per the anchor line values that were used when you drew the object. Please highlight the drawing object, right click and select 'Properties'. Select the Data-tab to check the anchor line values.

The same anchor line values will be used in other charts for the same instrument.

When I check the first screenshot, the Ray crosses the white line around 3:30 in the 5 range chart. When I check the 3 range chart the Ray crosses the white line at the same time stamp.
