	All, I have tried out the new fixes and it works for my shape nodes and the selection window, but I am still seeing thick lines for the grid when zooming. Am I am missing setting something here: page.GridColor = GRID_LINES; page.GridOffsetX = 0; page.GridOffsetY = 0; page.GridSizeX = _defaultHeight; page.GridSizeY = _defaultHeight; page.GridStyle = GridStyle.Lines; page.ShowGrid = showGrid; Thanks, Steve

	It seems we missed that case. New build here should fix that - https://mindfusion.eu/_temp/gridstyle_lines.zip Regards, Slavcho Mindfusion

	Hi, The bulk of fixes (some hundreds of Pen method/constructor calls) are already available in v6.8 we released last week. We won't be releasing an update only for the Lines grid style fix, but the assemblies from archive above should be stable to use. We could publish them to nuget if that will work for you. We'll probably release a 6.8.1 patch in a few weeks otherwise, when we collect a few more glitches to fix... Regards, Slavcho

	We are currently on 6.5.3. Do we need to update to the latest version to get these changes? I am getting licensing issues with the files that are in the zip. Thanks

	Hi, Sadly we cannot afford to patch all past versions of our libraries when platforms break something for us (e.g. .NET, Java and browsers tend to do that every year or two in our experience). If you cannot move to v6.8 at this time, you will need to use the fixes shown in thread above. For GridStyle.Lines specifically, you might be able to work around that by setting ShowGrid = false and drawing your own lines from DrawBackground event handler. Or possibly show the Diagram.LaneGrid instead, configured to match the alignment grid, and with various Style.*BorderPen widths set to a fractional mm value such as 0.1. Alternatively, instead of keeping default millimeter unit and fixing line widths, you could try changing diagram.MeasureUnit to a smaller unit (say Point, WpfPoint, Pixel) and adjust the various size and length property values for the new unit. Regards, Slavcho

	We have the same issue but using an old version of Flowchart (6.5.1). Is there a way to get a fix for this issue please? Note: We have a license with the source code. Thanks, Hugues

	Hi, Fixes from this thread should work for 6.5.1 too. Otherwise you could either move to v6.8, or patch the 6.5.1 code yourself. If you prefer the latter, replace the CreateGdiPen method in Common/Pen.cs with ones from attached zip, adding the target Graphics as parameter, and then fix compiler errors by passing target graphics as argument. Also find all references to System.Drawing.Pen constructor and replace them with calls to Utilities.NewPen, also in attached zip (that's for objects that don't have MindFusion.Drawing.Pen properties but draw directly with system pens). Regards, Slavcho Mindfusion

	Hi Slavcho, I applied your changes to my 6.5.1 code and that works great, apart from arrow and anchor points. Any idea? Thanks, Hugues

	Hi Hugues, Check if you haven't missed pen constructor calls in AnchorPoint.Draw, DiagramItem.GetEffectivePen, DiagramLink.GetEffectiveHeadPen methods - replace them with Utilities.NewPen as well. Regards, Slavcho

	Hi Slavcho, You were right, I missed a few places. Everything seems to work ok now. Thank you for your help! Hugues
