bandit69 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 hi, i am not very good in working with paths. today i wanted to draw a simple checkmark with the pen tool. the stroke should have a width of 2px (or more) and an angle lager than 90 degrees. the problem (for me) is, that i want the lower/middle part to be spiky. but at an angle above 90 degrees the middle parts starts to become flat (see attached image). what is the trick? thank you for your help and kind regards dennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Harris Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 In the Stroke panel this is called a miter join, and the number to change is the Miter: on the right side of the panel. It defaults to 1.414 but for sharper joins you need a bigger number. justwilliam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
