now obsolete, since we can use 0

Hi Stefan,
We still may wish to change the UI so that it is possible to set
fractional line widths as is possible in other programs. That would

@SS: What do you think does Batik?
It simply creates
line x1=.. y1=... x2=...
More surprises (for me). Someone stop me if this is already
documented. If you set the line width to zero, you get very faint
lines. The documentation for BasicStroke says, If width is set to
0.0f, the stroke is rendered as the thinnest possible line for the
target device and the antialias hint
The purpose of this thread is to document problems with BasicStyle
rendering that primarily affect the quality of printing plug-ins
Problem (1):
