Hello Hans,
The default segmentation assumes a cartesian coordinate system, where the edge of the cell starts at 0,0 in the x,y plane. That is why you always get four cells. I believe there is an attribute which allows you to shift this. I will check and get back to you. There is no explicit checking that the requested segmentation "fits" the volume. This was intentionally allowed so that one could accomodate odd combinations of geometries and readout schemes.
