 * Reduced Cesium bundle size by avoiding unnecessarily importing `Cesium3DTileset` in `Picking.js` [#8532](https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/cesium/pull/8532)
 * Fixed WebGL warning message about `EXT_float_blend` being implicitly enabled. [#8534](https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/cesium/pull/8534)
 * Fixed a bug where toggling point cloud classification visibility would result in a grey screen on Linux / Nvidia [#8538](https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/cesium/pull/8538)
+* Fixed a bug where a point in a `PointPrimitiveCollection` is rendered in the middle of the screen instead of being clipped. [#8542](https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/cesium/pull/8542)
 * Fixed a crash when deleting and re-creating polylines from CZML. `ReferenceProperty` now returns undefined when the target entity or property does not exist, instead of throwing. [#8544](https://github.com/AnalyticalGraphicsInc/cesium/pull/8544)
