Summary	0002630: Dimension lines in TechDraw display fine, but print very thick
Description	When printing a TechDraw page to SVG, PDF, or printer driver, the dimension lines are very thick. When a QPainter object is associated with a printer instead of display, lineTo() uses both the brush and pen to render the line. By setting a pen width of 0 before drawing the dimension lines, only the brush renders, providing a correct view.
Steps To Reproduce	Print a Techdraw page and compare dimension line widths to the display
Additional Information	When a QPainter object is associated with a printer instead of display, lineTo() uses both the brush and pen to render the line. By setting a pen width of 0 before drawing the dimension lines, only the brush renders, providing a correct view. diff --git a/src/Mod/TechDraw/Gui/QGIViewDimension.cpp b/src/Mod/TechDraw/Gui/QGIViewDimension.cpp index e84f24f..7c2df6b 100644 --- a/src/Mod/TechDraw/Gui/QGIViewDimension.cpp +++ b/src/Mod/TechDraw/Gui/QGIViewDimension.cpp @@ -499,6 +499,7 @@ void QGIViewDimension::draw() } } + pen.setWidth(0); // Extension lines QPainterPath path; path.moveTo(distStart.x, distStart.y);
