Something is wrong with the Bitmap Cache previews.

Notice the extreme difference between component thumbnail preview and main preview (here at 600x600):

Here is the same rendering, but with the image size set to 300x300, notice how the big preview is completely different from the one above (600x600)

Yeah, looks like the sampling grid resolution doesn't scale relative to the preview image size, which it ideally should do to get accurate previews. Seems to basically always sample every nth pixels. Also in general, would the great to have an option to use a sampling resolution independent from the image resolution.

The update did not change this behavior. The issue persists. Btw, is there a changelog for the beta somewhere?

Sorry that I may be missing something or doing it wrong if this is a bug, but I do not get any error preview as shown on screenshot, maybe because I am adding a bitmap object color control?

Please, where is available the "Input Cache Settings" panel?

I have searched in the options and do not find it

Where can be this made visible?

The Bitmap cache does not have any settings as shown here Bitmap cache help page

Thanks very much

Look here. Preview inconsistencies starts to appear at other cache resolutions than 100%
