Hi all, I've been working on cusps on powerstroked paths. And I've obtained a first success. The attached picture shows a comparison between how powerstroke strokes thick cusps, and how Inkscape does it normally (I suppose according to SVG spec). I think the powerstroke solution is more artistically pleasing, what do you think? :-)
Cheers, Johan
Not a big fan of your pointy cusp, sorry. It looks overdone, at least for the style of work I tend to do (which is more technical, less artistic...)
See attachment. I've added the normal SVG miter, but... come on... you *must* like the extrapolated one!
:P Johan
OK - I will agree these look pretty darn nice ;)
I believe the variation I found too long was when two convex curves came together at an acute angle. This can make the extrapolated cusp very long.
