A tetris piece in the curve after the rasterization step

See attachement: This kind  of blob ( Tetris piece, or rookwise connected) should not happen.

You can enable anti-aliasing for curves in the settings panel. It's a setting because some users didn't want the lines anti-aliased. We don't paint these lines ourselves, that's QPainter's work, so there's nothing much we can do about the aliased case.

Sorry, I'm going to have to close this one -- though there's certainly a case to be made for making AA the default, instead of aliased.

Anti-alias the curves by default

Because it looks prettier :-)

The anti-aliased curve does not look good either. I have never noticed this with QPainter's curve drawing algorithm. Something must happen after its job is done.

hm, you're right. Weird stuff is happening here.

Let Qt draw the polyline

We used to draw lines ourselves, giving a bad result.

Can you check whether this is better for you?
Comment 8 LukasT 2012-04-09 19:44:09 UTC
I remember Dmitry made it aliased due to precision by default. It is precision vs look-good decision here, we change the defaults back-and-forth.
Comment 9 Halla Rempt 2012-04-09 19:53:07 UTC
I know... but this time I did something more: I also changed the painting algorithm and used QPainter to paint the path directly, instead of us painting line segment by line segment.
