LifeViewer/Known bugs

The following is a list of issues within LifeViewer are not considered to be a high enough priority to fix immediately:

Fixes planned

• Crashes can occur when higher-range cells are manually placed near the edge of the grid

Backlog issues

• KILLGLIDERS in [R]History rules replaces marked off cells with generic history cells
• Selections appear visually offset on bounded grids, often as a result of mismatching specified and actual pattern sizes
• Bounded grids are not centered correctly when a pattern first loads
• Margolus patterns are handled incorrectly with bounded grids, resulting in positioning errors and cell deletion
• Pattern bounding boxes are calculated incorrectly on bounded grids

Low-priority issues

• The triangular grid renders slightly to the left of where it should
  • As a result of this bug, some of the horizontal lines can be seen to de-render at the right edge of the grid under certain circumstances.

Acknowledged, status unknown

• Spaceships being deleted by the boundary causes false results for several statistics in Identify

Platform-exclusive issues

iOS

• There are large visual gaps in triangular selections
• Period maps are not generated for oscillators with bounding boxes exceeding 4096 cells in a direction
• The copy and cut buttons give the "Copied to external clipboard" message however does not, there is no permanence between sessions^{[citation needed]}
• The lazyslug.com interface begins unreasonably thin (in the y axis) when accessed in portrait mode on an iPhone, however will become closer to square if switched to landscape mode and back^{[citation needed]}
