[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #41932] Solid line appears dashed with FLTK

[Michael Godfrey]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #41932 (project octave):

Rik said:
"If this is the case, then we might be able to implement a solution in Octave
by querying these values. If the user requests a line width that is too small
we could just substitute the minimum. This may be what Matlab does which could
explain why they are always able to draw lines, even if the width is specified
as 0.5."

THis definitely seems like a good idea. It does appear that
Matlab does something like that.  In any case, this would
help quite a few users who spend time figuring out that they
need to increase linewidth.  Does this have implications for
the rendering to the print formats? i.e. should the increase
to the minimum only be applied for the drawing on screen?I think that this
would be preferred, but at least it should be reviewed.
