Miter
|
![](Help/Images/transgif1x1.gif) |
|
![](Help/Images/linejoinmiter.png) |
|
![](Help/Images/transgif1x1.gif) |
Creates stroked lines with pointed corners. Enter a miter limit between 1 and 500. The miter limit controls when the program switches from a mitered (pointed) join to a beveled (squared-off) join. The default miter limit is 10, which means that when the length of the point reaches ten times the stroke weight, the program switches from a miter join to a bevel join. A miter limit of 1 results in a bevel join.

![](Help/Images/miterlimit1.png) | | ![](Help/Images/miterlimit2.png) | | ![](Help/Images/miterlimit3.png) | | Miter Limit = 1 | Miter Limit = 3 | Miter Limit = 5 |
|
![](Help/Images/transgif1x1.gif) |
Specifies the limit of point length to stroke width before a mitered join becomes a beveled square join. For example, a value of 9 requires the point length to be 9 times the stroke width before the point becomes beveled.
