thanks for the programatically recipe. I will do it better next time.
And yes this shows the bad behaviour.

Also I can confirm that with version from master branch, namely

@ origin/master origin/HEAD a978d300a3faf58ee6e94ba57f764ca99a9ec308
Author:     Mark Oteiza <mvoteiza@udel.edu>
AuthorDate: Thu Dec 22 19:09:01 2016 -0500

the problem has gone on both systems, Linux and Windows.

(Little odd ting is the blinking of the overlay, but it's ok.)

With kind regards,
Stefan
