Symmetry copies almost invisible (using latest build, coot 1.0) #103

Hi Paul,

On a Mac with retina screen, the symmetry related copies are more or less invisible in the presence of a map. Is it possible to make them thicker?

Also the symmetry controller GUI (symmetry by molecule) seems quite broken - I assume a gtk4 issue?

The line thickness is bug/missing feature in the OpenGL drivers of macOS. It would be good if they fixed it.

To fix it at the Coot end would mean a bit of a re-write regarding symmetry representation. Not sure how long that would take, probably less than a week though.

I will take a look at the "Symmetry by Molecule" button.
