add 5 px to stroke width context in style indicator
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/7df319e14560201bf22144cc0599c3ef.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
Hi Friends, I use a 5 px stroke width often, and I also use the context menu for the stroke width in the Style Indicator area. That menu offers widths:
0.1 0.25 0.5 0.75 1 1.5 2 3 4 6 7 8 10 ......
I understand leaving out 9, but I don't understand leaving in 7. But what I don't understand the most, is that 5 is left out. Is there any relatively easy way I can add "5" into my own menu? Thank you very much :-)

Are you sure there's a '7' in that popup menu of the current style indicator in the status bar? Since the order of the values is reversed (smallest at the top instead of bottom), the list possibly was not written with a screenshot of the menu as reference (?), or else the Windows builds of Inkscape 0.91 differ in this regard from other platforms supported by Inkscape.

To the best of my knowledge, the values are hard-coded (built-in) [1] and cannot be changed by users at runtime via preferences or other means.
The hard-coded values are: 32, 16, 10, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1.5, 1, 0.75, 0.5, 0.25, 0.1
... and here are screenshots of the popup menu as seen in Inkscape 0.91: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/8gfz14slgr42ddn/AACis1TaCMGyjiT11zl0AuV0a?dl=0

Thanks ~suv.
Hhmm.... No, I don't see a 7 in the list now. But I thought there was when I wrote the message. I'm not sure what happened there.... Maybe just one of those human glitches ;-)
But thanks for letting me know that I can't change it myself. I guess the only way to get it, would be to file a feature request report?
Thanks again :-) brynn
