David,
I am designing my layout using peco HO (OO) streamline code 100 and peco setrack code 100.
I have been setting up curves which are the same angle and radius as the medium radius points, 12% and 36 inch.  When I view them at 1:25 scale they show as outside the minimum radius, which I have set at 23 inch.  Not a great problem, just a little annoying as I am trying to sort other curves to make sure the radius is greater than the minimum.  The reason for using 1:25 scale is that I need to go up to that scale to get the whole layout on my screen.

I know this is an annoying issue. It has to do with the way the flex is drawn: as the scale goes up, fewer points along the flex are drawn to keep a reasonable performance, causing rounding errors when checking for the radius.

We'll have another brain storm session on this to see if we can solve the issue in a reasonable way!

This problem has been solved.
Warnings are shown consistently no matter what zoom scale.
