[BUG]: "Draw Point.vi" ignores width pen parameter on Linux but not on Windows, drawing a single pixel instead of the desired width poin

[EMCCi]

Title says it all. Sharing this to see if other Linux users can reproduce issue or it's a "it doesn't work on my machine" issue.

LV versions: 2025 Q3
Linux Distribution: Open Suse LEAP 15.6 (supported combination by NI)
Display Server: Tested both in X.Org and Wayland with the same behavior.

If you post an example VI which shows this behavior and the exact settings that you've used I will try it on Ubuntu

See the attached VI and screenshots

Has been anyone able to double check this?

I remember Wiebe Walstra from Carya complaining about pen width not working under Linux even for lines but my memory is nowadays not anymore what it never truly was.

Is it worth it to report this kind of things somewhere?

Yes! In the past years it felt like NI wasn’t interested in investing in LabVIEW anymore (or anything that made NI what it was before ca 2015) but since Emerson took over there seems to be a clear focus on a few traditional key areas, and DAQ and LabVIEW are among them.
