Unable to create an object with sharp corners, not even a square!

[yusha]

Hi all,

 

I need help making a proper square or any shape with perfect sharp corners/strokes.

I can’t find out how to do so - am I missing something or is this a limitation of Photo’s engine?

Please see the attached screenshot. Anything drawn has round corners, even the Pen tool and the Pixel brush!

 

The only way I can get sharp corners is to import a vector object but even then it’s borders lose opacity and it doesn’t look right.

Hi yusha,

 

You can place a rectangle and then go to Layer FX > Outline and set the Alignment to Inside. This should give you an stroke effect where the corners are perfectly sharp.

Thanks BUT...
... it doesn't work in my Designer (1.10.3): Corners keep rounded when using wide strokes.
Even if working, we don't have to go trough that process all the time.

You're using a Round Join setting for the Stroke (underlined in my screenshot below, copied from your screenshot). Try a Miter join instead (circled, below).

All right, Walt.
I haven't see it.
Excuse my ignorance and... THANKS A LOT.
