 | | Why Type 5 Lines?

| What is the point of Type 5 lines? It seems to me that they are a confusing and clunky method to display lines for the visible edges of rounded objects when having no line at all would be just as visually correct (and less taxing on the brain to (...) (22 years ago, 17-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
