The new dashed line drawing strategy around the master linked position is better recognizable and is visible for selected and for unselected text. We should consider making this the default.
Markus, please add your comments here. You had some negative comments about this recently.
Created attachment 71442 [details] Screenshot (In reply to comment #1) The dashed lines look strange with short names and small editor fonts: On first sight, they look like a bunch of randomly placed dashed, since their rectangular form is not completely visible. A fix could be to make sure all corners are drawn with full 3 pixels of horizontal and vertical lines and only start with dashes after the 3 pixels adjacent to the corners.
Created attachment 71477 [details] Screenshot Previous attachment was BMP but was submitted as PNG. This happened because MS Paint was so stupid and saved a BMP into a .png file, and Firefox was so stupid and rendered a file with mime type image/png as BMP without saying a word...
Created attachment 71480 [details] add no-dash-zone to corners Here's a patch to experiment with no-dash-zones in corners.
Comment on attachment 71480 [details] add no-dash-zone to corners Marking patch obsolete as drawing is now done by SWT.
Too late to change defaults. Will make final decision once bug 205728 is fixed.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
