Title: Dot ignores edge colors for thick edges (bold edges or edges thicker than 1)
Submitter: Hedayat Vatankhah
Date: Thu Aug 17 01:09:15 2006
Subsys: Dot
Version: 2.8
System: x86-Linux-redhat 7.2 AND fedora 4 AND fedora 5
Severity: major
Problem:
When I define a thick edge (for example an edge with bold style) with a color other than the default black, it appears thicker but always black! This is just a dot bug; webdot generates the correct image for example.
Input: 
graph G {
edge [style="bold"];
"a" -- "b" [ color=red ];
}
Comments:
[ellson] Could you please let me know what platform and OS you are running on, and what command line you are using?

I haven't been able to reproduce this with latest sources, but I'm not sure that I am reproducing your case exactly.

Webdot just uses dot's libraries. Is your installation of webdot using a different version of dot?

[ellson] OK. I can reproduce this bug with graphviz-2.8, but not in latest graphviz-2.9 so I think it has been fixed.

Thanks for the report.
