[PCB_FORUM] Re: Highlight Strips v16.0

The behavior is happening when openGL is enabled. You will see it with
highlight and with hovering over objects in application modes when
openGL is enabled. 

OpenGL is attempting to do a fill. Lower zoom levels allow striping, and 
when zoomed in, the highlight becomes solid. It's also a function of the 
width of the data.  OpenGL will fill the line if  it's zoomed in far 
enough to show width on the  screen.

Striped highlighting is not available on Windows.
