Quick follow-up to this. Nel had a shift of 18/72" (ie a whole 1/4"), which will cause the ovals to move down a slot. It doesn't make sense to shift more than an eighth of an inch either direction. I can put a limit on the range of the shift value if people prefer, but in the past such limits have caused problems. The words "doesn't make sense" rarely apply to ballot layout.
