It's not happening to me now, thanks. But on the subject of viewing, I
notice
that there are leftover images in uncovered areas that disappear upon
redraw,
including in some cases images missing emblems, which is implausible for
something like a bomber. The rule is/was supposed to be that if the display
is all being done correctly, the redraw command should have no effect, and
from a practical point of view it's confusing if a unit image is there
one moment
and gone the next, depending on whether you scrolled or something. I don't
remember if this problem used to exist though.
