V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #5 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> --- A line has a stroke weight, which we inappropriately label as 'Width' as an attribute but not a height or a width. A line, as opposed to a point, has a length whcih we don't handle directly (although we probably should). Nor do we handle an area for a closed polygon. Otherwise when laid down on canvas, it a line is inscribed inside a bounding box--described as its Position and Size. Setting width or height of a bounding box is meaningless as it describes just the end points of the line (as a line, a curve or a connector) not its attributes--stroke weight or thickness. My take, "Position and Size" bounding box should keep the 'Width' and 'Height' of the shape object, while the "Line" attributes should be assigned 'Thickness', or possibly the more correct 'Weight'--remove the misnamed 'Width'. But I do think line 'Thickness' rather than stroke 'Weight' would be an easier distinction for L10N. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
