Description Nicolas Brisset 2006-07-05 10:05:17 UTC
Version:           1.3.0_devel (using KDE 3.4.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.3
OS:                SunOS (sun4u) release 5.8

It seems that lines and arrows (except for the head) don't honor the line width property set in their dialog.

To reproduce:
1) start kst 
2) draw a box first (because of bug #130279)
3) draw a line: it has the default width
4) edit the line's width and apply: nothing happens

Expected result: the line width is changed. Notes:
1) other properties are correctly applied
2) the line part of arrows suffers from the same problem
3) bug #121068 is not fixed yet :-(

Nicolas, if the lines you are drawing are oriented horizontally or vertically then this problem is actually caused by bug #121068. If the line is drawn at some angle then everything works okay for me. Could you confirm this is the case for you.

Right, I confirm what you say. That sounds pretty bad as I've just refreshed my memory and bug #121068 was not an easy issue... and I believe that horizontal or vertical lines are not uncommon !
In any case, if you are sure that this bug is linked with 121068, just close it as a duplicate.

This really sounds like an X server issue to me.
Comment 4 Andrew Walker 2006-07-06 20:51:56 UTC
DRawing horizontal/vertical lines with a line width of > 1 will not reflect the desired line width. This is related to bug #121068, as the line is being clipped to its bounding rectangle, which is insufficient to show the true width of the line.
