Name

pdf_setlinejoin — Sets linecap parameter

Synopsis

bool pdf_setjoin(pdf, type); resource pdf: PDF object identifier int type: Join type

Returns

Always TRUE

Description

Sets the type of join between two lines. These are normally only seen at large line widths although controlling how a line is joined can be useful for aesthetic reasons.

type can take values of 0, 1 or 2 which are:

`0`	Miter join. The outer edges of the joined lines continue until they meet at a point
`1`	Round join. Corners are rounded of with a diameter equal to the line width
`2`	Bevel join. The line caps are beveled off to form a straight edge acorss the top of the joined lines.

Version

Since versions 3.0.6 and 4.0

Example

Example 977. Show different joins
