Summary0011112: still some blurred frame borders...
Description1. wonderful! a nice text frame with no solid border, but a sharp placeholder! just one hint: it could be less black...

2. an image frame. also mostly better, but in some case there are still blurred borders (in this case the lower and right ones)<

3. here the border is yellow and not transparent: sadly the yellow color is drawn behind the placeholder (which should probably not be drawn)

4. the border is now black: not really sharp... but since there is a border defined, this is not that bad...

5. meta-report: when converting the text frame with numbers to outlines, instead of getting just the content, i also get a box around with a border. in my eyes, if the border and the background are transparent, there should be no box.

i've attached a screenshot of the preview mode, too.

the .sla file is also attached.

addendum:

- see the screenshots by vlada for a suggestion on how to make the placeholders more pleasant.

Thanks for your feedback, some remarks to your notes:
1.) 2.) 4.) for this it seems that the sharpness is depending on the cairo version, with the latest 1.12.4 version the lines are perfectly sharp.

3.) you're right, the frame marker shouldn't overwrite the already defined yellow border.

5.) the still visible border is the border of the original frame.

thanks franz!

3. is indeed much better now. i just wonder if the placeholder is needed when a border exists. @vlada: what are your thoughts about it?

5. is fixed!

... and i'd like to ask vlada to find the perfect color for the placeholder... black is too black in my eyes...


and for the other issues, we will wait for a cairo update, then!

I've uploaded two pngs to illustrate UI issue with drawing frames. Attached now.png and wish.png consist of aligned text and image frames. Unselected ones still look like there are some serious micro-tweaks needed to make them aligned, but once you sweep-select them, things are so crisp that it simply gives confidence in continuing layout process! :)

"three years later" status:

- vlada's wish has not been implemented

- guides.png shows text frames that have been inserted with shift-click to fill the guides.
  - for the top horizontal guides, there is nothing to say. good.
  - the lower horizontal guides: the frame placeholders are drown below the guide and not on top of it
  - the vertical placeholders are drawn next to each other (thicker line) rather than on top of each other)

- guides-2.png: at 100% it does not look that bad
  - the yellow border is drawn outside of the frame placeholder. probably ok.
  - the cross for the empty image placeholder is thicker than the border... it would be nicer if it was a thick as the frame ones.

- guides-3.png: at ~ 50%:
  - some of the horizontal lines are not shown (2 and 3)
