[Interest] How to combine glLineWidth call with Qt3D in QML?

[Björn Breitmeyer]

Hi,

you shouldn't rely on glLineWidth at all. It works only for a very limited 
amount of values, if at all. Its a deprecated feature, if you want thick lines 
you will need to create a triangle strip.

Best regards
Björn Breitmeyer
