Hello out there,
Tk lines have an option -joinstyle which can be either round, bevel or
miter. I see the effect of 'round' but neither for 'butt' nor 'miter'.
If possible, please point me to an example.
Thanks
Helmut

#a example:

package require Tk
pack [canvas .c -width 400 -height 400]

#Round Join
#This setting produces rounded corners at the vertices of the line.
..c create line 50 50 150 150 250 50 -width 10 -joinstyle round -fill blue

#Bevel Join
#This setting creates a beveled or chopped-off look at the corners
#by connecting the endpoints of the segments with a straight line
..c create line 50 100 150 200 250 100 -width 10 -joinstyle bevel -fill red

#Miter Join
#This setting extends the outer edges of the lines until they meet at a
point,
#creating a sharp corner.
..c create line 50 150 150 250 250 150 -width 10 -joinstyle miter -fill green

Hi Greg,
thanks for the example - now everything is clear.
I had myself written several tests but seeing your example I realized
that I had fooled myself - and then had kept testing in the wrong
direction.
Thanks again
Helmut
