Clipboard Movement Problems:1. Resizing During Movement
I shrank the clipboard to about 2/3 of its default size. I then moved the clipboard around the edges of the screen. When doing so counter-clockwise, the clipboard jumped back to full default size when it hit the lower right corner of the screen. This is repeatable. However, this does NOT occur when moving clockwise. It only happens going counter-clockwise.
2. Sun Glare
Clipboard still has sun glare on it. The glare changes while the clipboard is being moved, zoomed, and resized.
