Okay, since I am not yet familiar with the part of the program that uses the 
location info, 
I'll leave that for now.

Hmm, does that mean you want to shift the whole area or only selected points? 
Which ones? 
I thought about using the Area.transform() method to blow up the area a little 
bit, but did not yet find 
something useful. I think searching the shifted point is easy to implement and 
this double (or multiple) 
search will not happen very often.

Ciao,
