show popup

[Fairlight]

The honourable and venerable GCC Consulting spoke thus:
> When a show popup appears over fields with values, the field values "bleed

> Any suggestions?  Or am I looking at a "bug" in the show popup?

While a semi-official answer is probably forthcoming eventually, in the
meantime, I have an observation.

Remember the discussion a while back about field values being taken from
the onscreen display, rather than internal memory?  Like if you did a SHOW
that overlaid even a portion of the value of a field, the field contents
would be altered by that, since it tracked it by what was displayed on
screen, in theory to make what was displayed "always accurate" with what
was considered the real data.

Why do I think this has something to do with that whole premise?  I mean,
this -is- totallly a WAG, but if it's not a bug, it's the only explanation
that immediately comes to mind.
