ID 163502 - Viewer does not correctly render single pixel height image formats

Follow

Problem summary
When a single pixel height image is brought into Nuke it does not update correctly in the Viewer. It will neither playback in real time, nor animate or move unless the channel information is adjusted via the Viewer controls. 
 
Customer reported version
nuke.11.0v3
 
Customer reported platform
windows10
 
Steps to reproduce
 
1) Paste the following script into a Nuke session: 
 
set cut_paste_input [stack 0]
version 7.0 v10
ColorWheel {
 inputs 0
 gamma 0.45
 rotate {{"-\[frame]"}}
 name ColorWheel1
 selected true
 xpos -227
 ypos -195
}
Reformat {
 format "9 1 0 0 9 1 1 Small"
 name Reformat1
 selected true
 xpos -227
 ypos -100
}
 
2) Note that the ColorWheel node has a simple rotate expression designed to rotate the image on every frame thus changing the viewer output on every frame.

3) Press the Play button on the Timeline and note that the Viewer does not update despite the animated ColorWheel. 
 
4) Change the output channel of the Viewer to any option outside of the default option, eg Red Channel 'R' then back to the default. 
 
*This will not update in real time but it will display the changes in the specific frame however these changes will be in grayscale and not in the correct colors.
