And lines become overwhelming when the grid spacing is fine. That's why my new HID gets adaptive: below 2 pixels, the grid isn't displayed; below 5 pixels, it's a grid-of-dots (meaning, dots, except it displays only dots with at least one coordinate a multiple of 10 - where "coordinate" is the integer grid coordinate); below 15 pixels, it's multiples of 5; below 25 pixels, it's a plain grid of dots; 25 and above, it's a grid of lines. I haven't used it extensively enough to have an opinion on how right the breakpoints I've chosen (2, 5, 15, 25) are, but I feel reasonably confident the idea is sound, and it's easy to tweak the details. /~\ The ASCII der Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [EMAIL PROTECTED] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
