Bug Description

Bug Description: When adding a filled zone to my pcb the zone is not displayed as expected. Horizontal lines appear at all the major vertices of the filled zone instead of an even fill. This bug appeared while working on a board for a few hours. The bug was not originally evident when starting work on the board. The bug appears in an older board that was complete previously with no issues. This leads me to believe that the bug is not specific to the project, but has something to do with my installation. I was running an older version of KiCad when the bug first appeared. I updated my install to the latest build and the bug persists.

You have "show outlines of filled areas in zones" selected. Click on the "show filled areas on zones" toolbutton.

Thank you for reporting, but this is a PEBCAK. Do as Bob says in #2.
