Background problem of maps

Hello! I am sorry if this is a wrong forum but I really hope that someone can help me resolve this issue. When I make a page of a specific size and add a picture there, I make sure that it would be of an exactly the same size as a page. And everything looks fine when I am zoomed out: However, when my players or I start to zoom in or zoom out, we randomly receive on different sides additional background edges which triggers my desire of tidyness. How can I lock the page of being the same size as an image and not add those extensions of background? Thank you so much for assistance!
Hi,  this is a known bug and has been around for a while. I hope they will address it now with all the coming canvas updates.

The best workaround at the moment is to add a couple of grid squares all round. (I.e. a 30x30 map on a 34 x 34 canvas). Make the background black. That alleviates a lot of the problem. It has the added bonus of letting you mask those areas with ordinary fog of war if you need to hide anything off screen.
