Description
Set the miterLimit property to specify how far miter joins can extend from the meeting point of two edges before a bevel join is used.
The miterLimit is used to calculate the maximum size of a miter join before it is rendered as a bevel. The size of a miter join is the length in pixels from the corner to the intersection point of its outer two edges. The miterLimit is specified as a multiple of the currentlineSize of the graphic.
This only affects polygon, freehand curve and line graphics which have their antialiased set to true.
