Post From: Forcing lines to have square edges

Did a little more investigation and found the culprit.

The text on the order line does not use any of Sierra's defined fonts , but one of the system fonts, which usually is Segoe UI. I hate this blurry font which makes my eyes bleed, my default system font is good'ol Tahoma from XP/Windows 2000 days...

I happens that the GDI Windows metric gives a 14 width bounding box for Segoe, but only 12 for Tahoma, so the box is shorter, and the rounded edge of the order line appears (see pic)

Also wanted to note the rounded edge appear on the study lines (see other pic).

No biggie, I'll live with it, but wanted to find the cause of this...
