    v1 v2  
    88A lot of programs, even commercial programs (even Dymola) don't respect this principle, but sooner or later they should, and for sure they will. So Since ticket #4156 I started to prompt to go in this direction.

    10 For me the nastiest issues is the old "+" sign issue, which seems to be very easy to solve: indeed @adeel mentioned to me that there are issues connected to the use for software update of MSYS2. I'm still waiting for developers to make the big leap needed to overcome this nasty issue (mentioned also in other tickets, if I remember well)

    1212I've not checked your diagrams, but the sentence "the connection lines in the diagram view look much thicker than at 100% resolution" makes me think.
     
    1717So now the rules are defined by the combined choices of 4196 and 4965.

    19 Just to be sure, maybe "much thicker" means 2 pixels instead of two? If so, probably this is because one pixel was too thin, and it is not possible to have 1.6 pixels. In that case, probably we must accept this.

     19Just to be sure, maybe "much thicker" means 2 pixels instead of two? If so, probably this is because one pixel was too thin, and it is not possible (or not considered possible) to have 1.6 pixels. I presume that OMEdit does not use fractional pen widths.

     21I don't know what happens with setting pen width with floating-point precision: Qt allows this, but I've never checked what the effect is. Maybe the graphical engine simulates on screen real values of line widths using colour shades at the line sides?
     22However, personally I'm at ease in a world in which, when switching from one computer to another or one resolution to another, the width of connecting lines changes from 1 to 2 pixels, if 1 pixel is too thin.
