Hi Jeff-

If you have any questions, let us know.

Now, it's the same in 1.2.  We don't handle that projection very well
as far as determining a rectilinear bounding box that covers it.

If you can give a specific instance, we will try to recreate it.
If you look in the Help->Show Console menu, are there any errors
listed in the console when this happens?  If so, send them
along.

> The new features in this version look great.

Thanks.
