BufferGetPage() returns a “Page” type, and the receiving variable “page” is of “Page” type as well, so the cast is not needed. If you run 'git grep', you'll find a lot more instances where the result of BufferGetPage() is explicitly cast to Page. git grep -rn "(Page) BufferGetPage" | wc -l 69 Although these casts are unnecessary for sure, I'm not sure if it's worth making the code changes to fix them. Thanks Richard
