    Lightbulb v16.1 - Wheelie control of Line Width

    Dear Xara...

    I have been using the Ctrl+Shift+Wheelie action on line width, even on individual Table cell edges to good effect.

    What I do not like are the values I get when I scroll up/down. It seems a scaling of 1.2 is applied for each step.
    For a start line width of 36 pt, I get:
    20.83 1.200192
    25 1.2
    30 1.2
    36 1.2
    43.2 1.2
    51.84 1.200039
    62.21

    It would make more sense if the larger value were rounded to the nearest integer and the smaller ones to the nearest 0.25pt.
    I currently do this manually, negating the entire worth of the control.

    Dear Xara...

    I thought this was a really simple ask and one at least worthy of an acknowledgement.

    Time to fit in in for v16.3?

    We wouldn't be able to do any changes for V16.3 unfortunately, it's way too soon to release but I can certainly ask the developer to take a look at this and maybe add something for V17. I don't know the formula it uses for increasing the line width but maybe we could add a registry entry to override it.
