Dash array (focused state) values are incorrect
-----------------------------------------------
Key: PIVOT-71
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-71
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Bug
Components: wtk
Affects Versions: 1.1
Environment: OpenJDK
Reporter: Todd Volkert
Assignee: Todd Volkert
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.2
We've been using {0.0f, 2.0f} as our dash array for the skins that paint a
dashed line to represent the focused state. These values are incorrect, and we
got lucky in that Sun's graphics runtime interpreted them the way they did.
The dash array {0.0f, 2.0f} means "repeatedly draw a dash of length 0.0f
followed by a gap of 2.0f", which really means "don't draw anything"! However,
because Sun's runtime interprets a dash of length zero *at a non-zero
thickness* to yield a pixel hit. This interpretation is not shared by other
JREs. NOTE, what we were going for was a dash of length 1 followed by a gap of
length 1, and {1.0f, 1.0f} yields the exact same behavior on the Sun JRE as we
had before, but it also yields correct behavior in other JREs. Thus, we should
change all instances of the old dash arrays to the new.
