Scaling image when running `ViewCaptureToFile` used to affect line widths in technical view mode (larger the scaling factor thinner the lines). It doesn’t seem to work anymore in Rhino 8 WIP (8.0.22347.14305, 2022-12-13) - lines have the same overall width regardless the resolution. To achieve the same effect one must scale the actual viewport. It would be good I think if there was an option to do this directly via `ViewCaptureToFile`
