Localization issue:
Edge Match > Rules
tab
Edge Match dialog > Rules tab: A whole control is not displayed. The two options at the
bottom are truncated. Edge Match dialog > Rules tab: An entire control is not displayed.
The two options at the bottom are truncated and invisible in Japanese. This is caused by
the resizing function Size 9 control to be inserted. However, this does not happen on
Chinese (the same size 9 language). In a visual comparison between Japanese and
Chinese resource, there is no difference on layout (size and position). So I do not see any
Japanese resource level problem.

Localization issue:
Attribute Rules
Attribute Rules dialog: The buttons "Function Filter" and "Queue message" are
overlapped on Japanese. The size 9 dialog size is bigger than the size 8 dialog. The
resizing function will adjust the button position based on the size 8 dialog size; therefore,
these buttons are overlapped even though the buttons are nicely positioned in the VB
form.
Workaround: The user can expand this dialog to eliminate this problem.

Retrieving a Legend from a LibraryConnection and running LoadData on its LegendEntries
result in a growing memory usage for consecutive iterations when the SinglePass
property of any given LegendEntry is set to True. When SinglePass is set to False, the
memory usage remains more or less constant. Setting SinglePass to False results in a
drastic reduction in performance, however.
