Having different scalings during path<br> creation and stroking of course does the trick. Awesome!</blockquote><div><br>Of course, a far simpler solution is to do the coordinate transformations completely outside of cairo contexts.  When I used cairo for plotting in the past, what I did was create my own coordinate transformation matrix, to which you can apply scaling and translation as usual, and simply apply this transformation matrix to every coordinate before passing it down to cairo proper.  It may be a bit more typing, but it is also far more understandable in the end.<br>  </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><br> <font color="#888888"><br> Holger<br> </font><div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c">_______________________________________________<br> cairo mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:cairo@cairographics.org">cairo@cairographics.org</a><br> <a href="http://lists.cairographics.org/mailman/listinfo/cairo" target="_blank">http://lists.cairographics.org/mailman/listinfo/cairo</a><br> </div></div></blockquote></div><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Gustavo J.
