v.digit problem

GRASS net--

We're having a problem with v.digit's display window. When we enter
control points, chech registration, and define the digitizing window we
seem to have a scaling problem in one direction (either the X or Y,
depending on how we set up the map). V.digit creates a long skinny
window whose coordinates do not match the digitizing window we
entered. After this point, we can digitize normally, points returned
from the digitizer have the correct map coordinates, etc., but they
fall outside the bogus digitizing window on the graphics monitor.

Please help! We have run out ideas.

Mike,
What projection are you working in? I noticed a similar situation when working
on the state of California in Lamberts Conformal Conic projection. It was
pretty obvious that it was a result of the geographic location in that
particular projection.

One last thought. If you are running GRASS4.1, are you using update 4.1.2 or
newer? 4.1.1 has a bug in v.digit.
