Stroke properties

Posted by Dimitre on Oct 25, 2009

Is it possible to define stroke terminations (butt,round,square) and corners (miter,round,bevel)?
Thanks

Well, the code that Tom shared a few posts earlier could get you started. You can also access your NodeBox path's underlying NSBezierPath and do this:

from AppKit import NSRoundLineCapStyle
 
autoclosepath(False)
beginpath(100, 500)
curveto(200,250, 600,600, 400,300)
path = endpath(draw=False)
 
nofill()
stroke(0)
strokewidth(12)
 
path._nsBezierPath.setLineCapStyle_(NSRoundLineCapStyle)
 
drawpath(path)

And there's some more documentation on linecaps by Giorgio here.
