Detailed Description

The line join style specifies the shape to be used at the corners of paths that are stroked.

The line join style specifies the shape to be used at the corners of paths that are stroked. Join styles are significant only at points where consecutive segments of a path connect at an angle; segments that meet or intersect fortuitously receive no special treatment. All documentation for this class is taken from ISO 32000-1, section 8.4.3.4 "Line Join Style".

BEVEL

const int iText.Kernel.Pdf.Canvas.PdfCanvasConstants.LineJoinStyle.BEVEL = 2

static

The two segments are finished with butt caps (

See also

LineCapStyle::BUTT) and the resulting notch beyond the ends of the segments is filled with a triangle.

MITER

const int iText.Kernel.Pdf.Canvas.PdfCanvasConstants.LineJoinStyle.MITER = 0

static

The outer edges of the strokes for the two segments are extended until they meet at an angle, as in a picture frame.

The outer edges of the strokes for the two segments are extended until they meet at an angle, as in a picture frame. If the segments meet at too sharp an angle, a bevel join is used instead.

ROUND

const int iText.Kernel.Pdf.Canvas.PdfCanvasConstants.LineJoinStyle.ROUND = 1

static

An arc of a circle with a diameter equal to the line width is drawn around the point where the two segments meet, connecting the outer edges of the strokes for the two segments.

An arc of a circle with a diameter equal to the line width is drawn around the point where the two segments meet, connecting the outer edges of the strokes for the two segments. This pieslice-shaped figure is filled in, producing a rounded corner.
