Description narcís calvet 2013-11-20 11:26:23 EST
Is is possible to set the decimal line width for line series? All the samples use integer line width, however System.Drawing.Pen.Width allows decimals (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.pen.width.aspx). We would like to have decimal widths, like 1.25, 1.5, 2.
The lack of the ability to refine the quality of the trend line widths is preventing a major client of mine from using the application that I developed using TeeCharts. My client is a major financial publisher who has precise formatting requirements. The 1 pixel trend lines of TeeCharts are too thin and even show some spikes at sharp turning points in trends. The two pixel width lines, on the other hand, are too thick.

Most charting tools that I've seen lately allow for pixel widths like 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, etc. If there is anything that can be done to escalate this issue, please consider this an urgent plea.

As an example, please look at this chart of copper here: http://www.dailywealth.com/market_window/default.htm. The line is thin and "pointy" at the tops and bottoms. This is my chart that was generated with TeeCharts.

On the other hand, please see this attached screenshot of basically the same chart from stockcharts.com. The trend line is much more pleasing to the eye - smoother and thicker but not too thick.
