Line Width Problem

[Thomas Hammerlund]

Thank you for your reply.

I use the 'circle' symbol for when the line is less than 1.  I did try using
circle for all widths, but it produces the same result.  I think when the
line is about to reach the edge and it stops drawing, the half-circle is
what is left and that's what is seen.  (Does that make sense?)  I think it's
like if you put two quarters together.  There's space in between them.

Is there a different symbol that might work better?
