Hi Lee,
This problem was, in principle, solved in version 2.22/10.
If you already use this version, please send me a copy of your canvas
as a Root file (use "saveAs canvas.root" in the canvas menu "File").
There are still problems associated with the color of the special
patterns.
This is currently under investigation.
