Not sure quite what to title it, but when you move an object accross a view (using MArea -> Drag_ -> change Filled_ position) you will get a bit of residue of that object stuck on the boarder. This seems to happen when you have the said object selected (while building) and will disapear if you un-select the object.
Might have something to do with the boarders being uneven...? cheers

Workaround:
• resize the above modlue slightly bigger than needed • change all the module's logic to relfect it • wrap it into another module • make the outer module the size you really want A bit extra work.

Hi infuzion,
I must have missed this one - sorry (skOre is doing a great job of tracking these, that's how I found out).
Anyway, I suspect that it's the redraw area that you're using. You need to make this ever so slightly bigger. Because smoothing is being applied, the edge of the circle will spill outside it's area. The bits outside are the extra pixels that are needed to create the smoothing effect.
If none of this makes sense then send me your schematic and I'll show you.

So, why is smoothing applied ?

I'd guess without the smoothing/anti-aliasing you'd get the usual 'jaggies' i.e. visual steps in diagonal/curved lines 😉
Maybe an option to switch this off, if you desire, would be useful!?

I suspected that. However, the redraw area=View area (MGUI). I tried making the redraw area bigger than the MGUI area, but if I remember correctly, that didn't work either.
Perhaps the smoothing is 1px out of bounds? edit: The update problem only happens on the right & bottom areas, which makes me more of a suspect of the smoothing going out of bounds.
BTW; no problem w/missing the bug for a week; I know you are busy. I imagine you'll have to go to a bug-tracking system sooner or later as SM grows. Bugzilla seems a bit over kill; I'm sure there are some PHP scripts out ther for ya...

Any chance you could send me your schematic? I'm sure I can clear this up pretty quickly once I see what's going on.
To answer Shif, you can turn off smoothing by inserting a Smooth component in the View path.

Didn't know that! Thanks for the heads-up!

Ok sorted now. It was the redraw area but in the code not in your schematic (rounding errors) - apologies for that.
Will be fine and dandy in the next release.
