Update on border lines

Just a quick update to my last post on getting Calc’s border line situation sorted out.

As of last post, the border lines were pretty in good shape as far as printing to paper, but it was still less than satisfactory when rendered on screen. Lines looked generally fatter and the dashes line were unevenly positioned. I had some ideas that I wanted to try out in order to make the border lines look prettier on screen. So I went ahead and spent a few extra days to give that a try, and I’m happy to report that that effort paid off.

To recap, this is what the border lines looked like as of last Friday.

and this is what they look like now:

The lines are skinnier, which in my opinion make them look slicker, and the dashes lines are now evenly spaced and look much better.

  1. Sounds promising that this annoying _feature_ might be already fixed. (might cause, I didn’t test LO 4.2.1 RC1 yet). At least now I can think about LO upgrade from 4.0 to 4.2.1… Great!
