Hello Root Users,

in th ROOT Version 2.23 Release Notes Rene announced:

> - IMPORTANT CHANGE IN POSTSCRIPT OUTPUT
>   =====================================
>   The line width is now multiplied by 4 instead of the original 1.5.
>   This makes Postcript outputs looking more comparable to the screen.

I tried this new version and IMHO the postscript lines are to think now. I
tried to change them to the old value, but the line:

gStyle->SetLineWidth(1.5 * gStyle->GetLineWidth() / 4);

just affected the tick marks. Is this a bug or a feature? If this is a
feature, which ich the correct way to get back the old (thinner) lines?

Tschuess
