I had 4 figure floats in succession in the GUI each with a similar PDF in them. I needed to clip the top of each image to remove the title at the top. On two of them the clipping the bounding box worked (i.e. it showed the clipped graphic in the GUI), but in the other two changing the clipping values did not appear to make any changes (i.e. the buffer was not updated and it looked like nothing was happening). However, when compiled and viewed, the clipping had actually been done. So what I observed seemed to be a problem with the buffer not updating the display image. Even exiting the setting and selecting reload didn't update the clipped graphic.
