I've implemented that already for the next version and during that I found
out that there was a stupid bug in the code which caused lines to be
disappearing. Now the drawing is much clearer, means lines are clearly
visible. I also implemented something for thicker lines which can be changed
in the settings then - from 1 to 3 dots.
Also this bug effected the generation of pictures and print-outs - they look
much better now, even with linewidth = 1.

I'm trying to finish this version as quick as possible, but always there is
something more important to do :-(
