Hi I finally found the answer for the dimension moving problem, this is what works for me.

At the config.pro file there is an option called GRAPHIC you can set up this option as your system need it, for me works the GRAPHIC= OPENGL aslo set up your virtual memory parameters, I have used as minimun value the amount that I have in ram memory 2 giga plus 300 Mb, and the maximun value to 3 times your memory plus 300 mb.

Currently I can see prety well the final position of dimentions when move them to a new location.

I hope this works for you either.
