I have a TIEBitmap image with ie24RGB PixelFormat, pixel dimensions 152 width x 666 height. I want to resample the image to 152 width x 1998 height (stretch in the Y direction). I've checked and can see that the rfNearest and rfLanczos3 sample filters work exactly as I'd expect with no apparent errors, but the rfFastLinear sample filter shifts the image slightly. For instance the pixel (130, 642) in the original image should move to (130, 1928) in the stretched image, but the rfFastLinear sample filter instead moves the pixel to (130, 1926). These are real-world pictures being used for curation of objects, so it does matter. I haven't checked to see if a similar error occurs in the X direction, or to see if the other filters have similar errors.
I've attached a zip file with images that make the difference between the rfNearest and rfFastLinear sample filters obvious, with a black cross at the above pixel coordinates.

I also noticed this issue, there are similar errors in the X direction. I am not using rfFastLinear now.

The fast linear resampling algorithm creates a new pixels from a linear interpolation of pixel x+0 and pixel x+1 (or y+0 and y+1), so the right border or bottom borders have to interpolate with themselves when enlarging (as there are no further pixels). This results in simple duplication and causes the image content to be offset. For this reason, rfFastLinear should not be used when accurate measurement/positioning is required.
We will add a warning to the documentation.
