Border size option #4

Closed sennewood closed 6 years ago

sennewood commented 6 years ago

An option to define the border size would be nice.

lifelike commented 6 years ago

I have thought of adding an option to use the bounding box of the current selection. I think that would be a good way to precisely add borders as well.

This might be addressed by #9

lifelike commented 6 years ago

I read this issue as being about the border around the entire grid (more like print margins around the edges of the page)?

sennewood commented 6 years ago

I meant the thickness of the lines of the hexagons.

lifelike commented 6 years ago

Oh. Then #9 pr should do the trick. :)

I tried #9 and experienced that a value <1 pt is impossible. Maybe pt isn't the best unit for the work with vectors.

pmjdebruijn commented 6 years ago

1 pt is just an arbitrary minimum set in the .inx file, you can probably change that to 0.1

lifelike commented 6 years ago

I plan to change it to a text input instead anyway so that any unit can be used. Still has to be some kind of error-checking to avoid crazy/negative values, but less than 1 should be ok.

lifelike commented 6 years ago

Accepted the pr, then reduced the minimum to 0.1 pt. Should definitely change that (as well as the hex size entry) to be a string value that can include any unit.
