That does seem to be what happens on my hardware (PC) too.
I can't recall whether it is also true for output to a printer. You
may appear to have fine control over the line thickness on a printer
because the native units (or pixels/texels) are so much smaller.
But it is probably still quantized.

Yet another problem in developing a WYSIWYG interface for
IDL graphics.
