[Gimp-user] Edit > Stroke Selection, Line width odd/even and antialiasing

Hi Gimp-user,

Just wondering why, odd pixel widths look different than even pixel
widths when using Edit > Stroke Selection?

The odd pixel lines looked aliased, while the even pixel lines don't
(only their corners).

When drawing icons and shapes, do you make a conscious decision to stroke
the line with an odd or even line width?

I tested this by drawing a selection on a layer and stroking it with
line width 1, then adding a layer, moving the selection to the right,
and stroking it with line width 2. I repeated that 4 times increasing
the line width each time.

Thank you.
