Unicode control pictures on OS X?

[Michael D Mays]

I did have a big fld on the card with the handles off screen. But it 
had to be under the field because even though I could still edit in the 
fld.

Now when I try to replicate the conditions on a new stack, I can't get 
the unicode chars which are visible in the fld to print. No matter 
where/what layer the flds are???
