I like the look of the text, but at some zoom levels the text seems to jump around. Attached is a screenshot from multiline.sch. In the other example the GPL escapes from the title box at some zoom levels. The bounding rectangles (visible while panning) are correct though. In fact when the text is in a "wrong" state, I can drag it and the dragged vector-font text is the right size, but then it jumps back to the wrong size when I release the mouse button. The GPL schematic disappears entirely (text and surrounding box) when I zoom out past a certain level. It does reappear when I zoom back in. I didn't notice any slowness other than while dragging the first column of the GPL around. Ubuntu Hardy Heron here. Going back to master's vector-fonts-always *is* slow, however. P.S. I get "Got o_redraw_region with no current page" on the tty.
