various border styles

I have an older sheet with double-line borders to mark special cells. Now they look like one thick line at 100% zoom. This is shown in the 4 png below, in cell A1. If I zoom in to max, then the double line is still visible, but only for cells in .ods file created in older versions.

If I load 3.6.3, new spreadsheet, add border, 0.05pt double line (2nd from the bottom in the new listbox lineup) at 100% zoom this line is 4 pixels tall, a solid line. 
If I zoom in to max, it is still a solid line. 

The double-line border (1 pixel solid-1 pixel transparent-1 pixel solid) has effectively been lost. I can not find a setting to get it back.


I am attaching an ods made in 3.4.5, showing all border types available in that version. The first png shows that result. 
Then I loaded that ods in 3.6.3, png#2
and added the new 0.05 pt examples, png#3
and then last loaded the modified ods back in 3.4.5. png#4

Some cells have lost the border completely. I'll file a new bug report for that separate issue.

screenshot #4 of 3.4.5 loading the modified ods showing various border styles

4 cells created in 3.6.3 with smaller point size, do not show at all in 3.4.5
Additionally 10 more cells were modified by 3.6.3 without user intervention, and are no longer showing as created.
Comment 6 m_a_riosv 2012-11-27 00:47:46 UTC
Have you tried disabling anti-aliasing?
Menu/Tools/Options/LibreOffice/View/Use Anti-Aliasing.
Comment 7 S.Andreason 2012-11-27 15:15:22 UTC
Yes I have tried that, but anti-aliasing was turned on for graphics in 3.4.5, looked good, and did not do this blurring of Straight and Crisp lines. It used to blur only the angles, which is as it should be.

Now it is blurring the straight lines that should be 1 pixel wide, into a 3 pixel wide mess. This is not the expected behavior of anti-alias.

Turning off anti-alias in 3.6 does remove the blurring, but also leaves the angled lines jagged.
Comment 8 m_a_riosv 2012-11-27 16:21:19 UTC
I think this was discussed last week at the minutes ESC.

Comment 9 Joel Madero 2013-05-29 18:46:08 UTC
Thank you for reporting this issue! I have been able to confirm the issue on:
Version: 4.2.0.0.alpha0+Build ID: b0a1666f756aa5f5315366eca9d7d02ddd55d2b
Date:   Tue May 28 08:51:01 2013 +0300 
Platform: Bodhi Linux 2.2 x64

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
As I've been able to confirm this problem I am marking as:

New (confirmed)
Normal - can prevent high quality work
High - borders are quite popular and expected to be consistent. The older style IMO looked cleaner

Whiteboard Status - bibisectrequest - might be possible in this case

Comment 12 Xisco Faulí 2014-07-31 13:45:15 UTC
- Add 'regression' to keywords
- Add 'FILEOPEN' to summary
- Change platform to x86(IA32) All as it can be reproduced in Windows as well

This issue is still reproducible with Version: 4.3.1.0.0+

Comment 14 Justin L 2016-12-27 16:45:27 UTC
A lot has changed regarding borders and most complaints seem to be from the 3.6/4.0 time frame.  In 5.3beta2, in general things look pretty nice - not ugly. And specifically cell A1 is showing as a double line instead of a single-thick line.

I suggest (by marking it as worksforme) that this bug be closed since it doesn't seem to be a current issue.
