Hi Mark,

I've been working through your VTC Tutorial set for C7Pro.  Very well done by the way.  Having upgraded to C8Pro I thought it made sence to use C8 instead of C7 to work throught the lesson files.  I'm currently working on chapter 10 - Vertex Modeller, in particular movie 15,16, and 17, which uses reference images attached to the drawing plane or grid.  All fairly straight forward and quite easy to follow, and everthing worked flawlessly in C7Pro.  So here is my problem.  In C8Pro, I zoom in to get a better look at the front or side images so I can plot my curves and then when I try to pan to continue to plot the rest of the image, the entire drawing grid and my previously marked points move away from the image thus loosing my alignment with the image. It appears the image loads as a background image and not onto the drawing grid.  Quite frustrating to say the least!  Can you suggest a workaround.  I submitted a bug report to Daz, when I tried this lesson with the initial release of C8Pro and we've had a couple of updates since then.  The problem persists in Version 8.0.1.45.
