HTML Canvas Reference : Draw lines with the maximum miter length of 5
The numbers in the table specify the first browser version that fully supports the property.
Property | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
miterLimit | Yes | 9.0 | Yes | Yes | Yes |
The miterLimit property sets or returns the maximum miter length.
The miter length is the distance between the inner corner and the outer corner where two lines meet.
The miter length grows bigger as the angle of the corner gets smaller.
To prevent the miter length from being too long, we can use the miterLimit property.
If the miter length exceeds the miterLimit value, the corner will be displayed as lineJoin type "bevel" (Fig 3):
Default value: | 10 |
---|---|
JavaScript syntax: | context.miterLimit=number; |
Value | Description | Play it |
