History

#1 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 15 years ago

This is still a bug with QGis 1.2 (rev. 11005, Ubuntu 9.04).

#2 Updated by Magnus Homann about 15 years ago

It's made this way by deisgn, see #239. Perhaps another interior selectioncolor would be appropriate.

#3 Updated by Giovanni Manghi about 15 years ago

Replying to [comment:3 homann]:

Perhaps another interior selectioncolor would be appropriate.

The problem is that changing the density of the fill color, it changes also the transparency/tone of the selection color. In the extreme case, with no fill color, the selection color is 100% transparent.

In general it seems that would be better to the selection color be always the same, otherwise the "selection color" option in "options --> general" loses its meaning.

#6 Updated by Giovanni Manghi over 14 years ago

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from Open to Closed

Well,
if this has not been fixed for old symbology until now then I guess it will not be fixed in time when the new symbology will take over definitely.
