    Hi Quazy Wabbit,
    I suspect they're because the lines aren't whole pixels in length, that's the usual cause, so you get an antialiasing effect.

    As well as the shapes having to be in whole pixels, they must be positioned in whole pixels.

    Here's a close up of the antialiasing within a bitmap. The 2 images are exactly the same apart from being mirrored and the all the internal shapes in the left hand side being offset to .5 pixels. Notice the additional in-between pixels on the left.

    So if you want accuracy ensure you snap to grid of 1 pixel settings.

    Here's the same image at 100%. You can hardly see the difference but it's still there.

    Egg thanks but the white streak at the end of the line is my concern.

    Hasn't Egg already given you the answer - lines not occupying whole pixels?

    I still see the ghost lines on the right of the lines only
    this is at the end of the lines stretching out.

    Maybe it is my monitor.
    I bought it new HP W2007

    Isn't language grand! The width of the line and the length of a line could be interchangeable terms. I think Egg is saying all measurements should be in whold pixels...both the width and height and the x/y coordinates.

    must be LCD issue.
