Oh, I thought we were talking about text. Humm. I thought
there was a way to do the anti-aliasing on the lines, too.
I'll have to look, but I'm having trouble getting out of
bed this morning. :-)

Cheers,

David

Hi David,

I looked at a few of your object graphics examples. The legend looks
nice indeed but the lines are as pixellated as in direct graphics. So it
seems that object graphics is not fully anti-aliased.

cheers,

Bringfried

It's all there. Object graphics. Sigh...

Hi Ed,

I fully agree. Along these lines, anti-aliasing is another feature which
is more than overdue.
