Is it cause of our image or its a draft bug ?

I think it’s both your image and a Draft bug.

Would it be possible for you to please send us a copy of the script you’re using, along with an image file that reproduces the problem? You can send us files using our ticket system. (You may need to put the files into a ZIP file to get them through our ticket system.)
