Layout edges and growing sprites

I'm new to Construct 2 and am having trouble with sprites that grow outside the layout boundaries. For my game, this should be possible - I have a circle that grows on click and it should be able to fill/outgrow the entire screen. The problem is, however, that it goes off one edge of the layout and then comes back in through the opposite side. This is a problem because the sprite is not opaque and the overlapping is obvious. Is there any way to fix this? I've looked through the events and 'Is on-screen'/'Is outside layout' seem helpful, but I don't really know where to go from there.

Could you upload a capx file, or a screen shot of your config please?

Sure, here it is: ge.tt/75wZebg/v/0

Specifically, the problem is with the 'touchcirc' object in the 'gamemain' event sheet / 'gamescreen' layout.

Here's a screenshot of the relevant part: i.imgur.com/9AwnJVb.png

It's not wrapping around. You have a touchcirc that already exists outside the layout so when you touch the screen you create a second one and they both grow.

You should have a condition:

'On start of layout -> Destroy touchcirc'

or give the touchcirc sprite the 'Destroy outside layout' behavior to get rid of that first one when the game starts.

Oh wow, thanks. I thought I had made that invisible. Much appreciated.
