5argon Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Round and Bevel Join seems fine, but for Mitre Join depending on zoom level you would randomly get Bevel or Mitre join on any corners. (This is also happen in the current live version) If I rasterize the layer, it would random one last time before being rasterized. (Not correctly Mitre-ed still) ps. If you could add reorderable multilayer stroke that would be very very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted January 22, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 22, 2019 Hi 5argon, Could you attach a copy of your document please? Does increasing the Mitre value help stop this at all? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5argon Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 This is a simple file.. it is just Arial with mitre stroke. I am surprised you could not reproduce this. Perhaps it is a problem specific to my computer? (But a MBP is hardly customizable) No matter what the size the problem still occur. Also center-outer-inner align cause the same problem. mitre.afdesign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_B_C Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 As Sean suggested, try to set the mitre value to 1.6 or the like, and you should be fine … at least, it is working here … Mitre.mov 5argon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5argon Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 Oh my god, I didn't see the Mitre box. I thought you meant the stroke width. Apparently my Mitre was 1.414 that cause the problem. I tried changing to other number and it is fine, then I change back to 1.414 and it is fine now?? Also I would like to ask what is the unit of this box? 2 seems to give me a font-matching stroke, while 1 looks like Bevel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted January 22, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 22, 2019 Thanks for the file. Your file doesn't have any form of Join type selected which looks to be why you're getting this behaviour. As soon as I select either Bevel or Mitre it behaves as expected. How did you create the text object? Because if I start a new document and add text, a Join type is already set and changing it is correct. See attached video.

5argon Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 I can reproduce easily by just create a new document according to this video. Also shows that changing the default 1.414 to something and back will fix the problem. mitre.mov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted January 22, 2019 Staff Share Posted January 22, 2019 Thanks for that! It seems as though Windows is behaving itself, but the Mac isn't! I'll get this passed on to development! Thanks for letting us know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
