Hi John,

This is not a known issue, and it's not yet clear to me why it might be happening.

It sounds similar to problems I was having with very large bounds, although I wasn't seeing copying problems, just weird redraw problems caused by the float type running out of precision somewhere during the co-ordinate transformation (these could easily have been misinterpreted as copying problems, which they weren't). I didn't file a bug report at the time, because it isn't a bug. It's just that it wasn't designed for what I was using it for.


Whether this is the same problem or not, I don't know, but it might be worth adding something to the documentation mentioning that float doesn't have infinite precision so very large or very small values could cause rendering errors.

Kind regards,

Alastair.
