  • can anyone help with contour problem in x3 please?

    Have a problem here and can’t find the setting,
    When I try to contour a letter the corners of the contour(not the letter) end up clipped. Anybody know where the setting is to change this. It’s doing my head in!!!
    Will post an image in the portfolio section as I cant do it here.
    Thanks folks

    Hi Harry

    When offsetting the path it should have a place for "Miter Limit", this sets the curve and mitres of the corners, play with different amounts until you get a result you like.

    I think that is what you are asking and hope I explained OK.

    Cheers

    Warren

    just duplicated the problem in v10
    in outline pen
    change the corners to square or round

    been a bad week, started with pulling a lump of the car door handle off in the frost and ended with dropping my phone in the workshop……straight into a pot of paint!! 😮
