> The example given is that code that actually determines a polyline needs to be “emulated”. What this means is that the polyline and polygon rendering is ing done in OutputDevice and not in the various SalGraphics backends. In particular, the genpsp and X11 backends are the backends that don’t seem to handle things fully.
