Vertical line with tiny breaks

[mcg1103]

I am trying to create a vertical line between data columns. I have tried doing this several ways.

 

1. add a line the size of the the band.

2. add a boarder to a text box on the right or left and side and have the text box be the size of the band.

3. Did the same as above with a frame.

 

These all work fairly well. They all seem to print ok.. but the problem is when I view in PDF. for most zoom sizes it is ok but under 95%-115% I get little breaks in the vertical line. Not all lines... but depending on the zoom size the breaks are in different intervals... again it prints without the breaks.

 

Has anyone else seen this issue?

Any solutions?

Hi,

 

I think we are aware of this, but did not try to solve it since printing seems to be correct on paper. These rendering problems sometimes tend to become complicate, especially since we are dealing with various output formats that are not consistent with each other in terms of graphics renderding.

 

A workaround would be to make the line pieces overlap one pixel. You can do that by placing the line at y=-1.

 

I hope this helps.
