From my experience, things tend to go awry before actually getting outside of those bounds. I've seen more than a few customers complain that they are "only" 20,000 pixels from the origin in one direction and have wires extending off into the block diagram ether. I'm sure you're not surprised to hear that those same customers tend not to use any source code control.

I think it should be I64 to future-proof it against ever-growing monitor sizes. 😄

Because I'm such a nice guy, I'll let you post this to the idea exchange so you can get all of those kudos.

Very good Idea! Mr, Ko, when you post that make sure to include just how big you expect monitors to get.
HINT: LEDs will need to get @100 Times smaller for a 64 bit monitor to fit inside the Kuiper Belt. ( the hole in the middle for the sun is a negligible size).

How do you drive a display that is 8 light-hours wide?

I am sure the G-Force 108000000000000000-ti will have no problem

Press the cleanup button and go home for the weekend.

Have you seen what happens when you hit diagram cleanup? At any rate, I am going home for the weekend.
