Hello, I forwarded your report last year to the bugzilla. However, I notice now that it has vanished and has been replaced by a mantis bug tracker. Before I report this again, could you kindly verify it still happens with the current ipe in testing/unstable (7.0.14)? I have just tried, and failed, to reproduce the issue. Thanks, -Steve
