[GRASS-user] re-post: grass 6.3.0 OS X Leopard no fill color in polygons?

[Brandon M. Gabler]

Hey all, I am reposting my message below, since I think it got lost  
during the conversation about getting Kynge's latest build running on  
Tiger. Thanks much for your patience. (And if it was answered, can  
someone please repost it, because I didn't get it.)

Greetings all, and Happy Holidays,

I am helping to install grass for a colleague who has one of the new  
intel macs running leopard. He installed first the OpenOSX GRASS, and  
then the most recent 6.3.0-3-Leo Kyngesbury build, which is the one  
he is currently running.

All seems to work smoothly so far - great aqua interface!

But there is one problem with the display of vector polygons as  
boundaries only, without fill. On older versions, there was a simple  
checkbox for 'Fill areas' in the options for a vector layer. This is  
no longer present in the options, and under the color tab there are  
only various color pickers for the fill, lacking a 'no color' option  
as far as I can tell. How cam vector polys be displayed in this new  
version as just boundaries, no fill? Is it a combination of the  
shape, line, boundary, area boxes? We tried some of those, but the  
display still shows the filled polygon with a centroid. Perhaps it is  
a refresh problem? Thanks much for any help with this.

Best,
Brandon
