Hi

Why do I sometimes get pointy corners (left), and hard corners (right)? And how do I control it?

Thanks

Miter Join 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.

    Try to increase the Miter Limit.

    Limit can be found in the Stroke panel next to Corner type.
