GUI settings (menu: settings - preferences) under the tab 'Map
display', you can set the Display driver from Cairo (the default I
think) to png. That will bring you back to thinner lines.<br>
<br>
I was going to answer that there was an option to disable
anti-alias, but I can't find that option. But I guess that is what
Cairo display is doing; anti-aliasing the lines.<br>
<br>
As for the g.copy problem with selecting multiple maps, I can
confirm that doesn't work. Sounds like a bug to me, perhaps you
can file a bug report?<br>

Grass-GIS 7.0. Partly, this is because I'm also not
enthusiastic about migrating all my stuff to a new OS that I
don't need.<br>
<br>
However, I decided to run up Debian in a VM and give it a
spin.<br>
<br>
My very first observation relates to the Python interface:
compared to either the old TCL-TK or the former d.mon X11,
boundaries render too thick. It's an aesthetic issue only,
but I've worked with people who are willing to fight for
their desired "look" practically to the death. Examples are
included and I hope they survived intact.<br>
<br>
TCL<br>
<img moz-do-not-send="true" src="" alt=""><br>
<br>
Python:<br>
<img moz-do-not-send="true" src="" alt=""><br>
<br>
Second, Python selection panels, for modules that should
allow multiple selections, work badly.<br>
<br>
For example, g.copy. In the TCL-TK interface, I can use
g.copy for multiple copies. OK, I usually use the
command-line anyhow, but: If I attempt a second selection in
the Python interface pane, it replaces the first selection
instead of adding to it.<br>
<br>
I'll continue fooling around with 7.0 and hope nobody -
particularly our ever-helpful Markus and the rest of the
development team - think I'm being deliberately critical.
I've been a user of Grass-GIS for six years now, and it's an
indispensable part of my professional life. (I recently saw
a company devote two weeks - I am not kidding - of ESRI
temporary employee time doing stuff in the GUI that a
competent Grass-GIS user would complete in hours, using
v.distance and some database updates. The non-GIS manager
simply didn't believe my time estimate, even after a demo.
"No, we'll spend $4k on what we know.").<br>
