# (3) Boxes with more detailed outlines
**Straight lines**
The straight lines are drawn as one simple boxes each (if horizontal).
If they are sloped, they will be drawn as buildings (cf. sloped beams) in order
to get nice and
smooth lines without unneccessary staircase optics. Therefore, I had
# (2) Simple Boxes
Admittedly, the vast majority of boxes is neither rotated nor has it rounded
corners with considerable radius. The most prominent example of round filled
boxes probably are ledger lines.
Therefore, I consider it important to keep the simple cases simple.

Recently, there have been some discussions about mysterious spacing of

# (1) Rotating Ellipses
This was rather a side-effect when working on boxes with rounded corners.
Ellipse skylines are built out of a number of rectangular boxes and the number
of boxes needed is depending on the circumference: the longer the line, the
more intermediate points are needed.
