[mapguide-users] Is their a major flaw with theming point data?

Hi,
I have a circular buffer layer (data with x,y coordiantes in an Access
database) that is themed as follows:

50m - blue circle
500m - red circle
1000m - green circle
10000m - purple circle

The circles are symbols (.png images that are shaded but transparent).

Until now they have been working fine but I have just realised (after adding
the larger buffers) that when the center of the point is not visible on the
map the image does not show. This does make sense I guess because Mpaguide
is saying if the point is not visble on this mapview then it won't show it
but this is a major problem for me.

Is this a flaw with Mapguide?
Is there a way around this problem?
Is my best solution to convert all the point data in to circular polygons?

Any help or advice is welcome

Regards
JD
