| | | Considering that the last 1-4disc seems to allow the bubbles to show through, and Steve's comment "The stuff at the top of the file is more likely to be drawn and stay drawn", could all of the filler quads and triangles be replaced with one disk at (...)

| | | | (...) A key part of what I wrote is "more likely". So it's a good thing to put "important" elements, like the pattern, earlier in the file, but it's no guarantee they won't be overdrawn by coincident features. So it's not sufficient[1] to move the (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | (...) Hmm. Try viewing just the pattern (copy it to a temp file, or use LDAO's "Stop-At-Cursor" option), from Above at zoom>=16. You'll see some gaps around the bubbles. Also, if you move the bubble-background up to Y=-1, you'll see it overwrites (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
