Public bug reported: I don't know if all of the following steps are required to duplicate the bug, but it's what I do.
I created a rectangle object. Gave it a flat color. Then I duplicated it... at least several times. I dragged them to a new position and changed the color. Dragged it again. Changed flat to gradient and/or radial. Dragged it again. At some point among all this duplication, dragging and coloring, the colors do weird things, mostly losing the color rendering the object invisible; sometimes it just changes to a random color or black. If I click on it and change the radial to gradient and back again, all is well as long as I don't move the object. If I change it to flat I get random other colors. Note, I'm using both the area inside the boundary lines of wht I guess is the drawing area?, as well as outside. Not sure if I'm supposed to be on the outside but I am.
