We need control over grease pencil corners.

Currently there is no control with corners in grease pencil, a box drawn will always have rounded corners. This is an expected behaviour artists that are migrating from other programs like Flash and Illustrator are expecting and are not getting.

Hello Pablo: Thank you for your response. Corners are also known as joins. Maybe this reference will help point to what I mean. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/stroke-linejoin

  • What type of control?
  • Which options would you add?
  • Where would you place this option?
  • What would be the default?

* @Pablo Vazquez * Well. Current solution to that is supposed to be the use of a Squares material. That implies to subdivide a lot, primitives.

IMO, ability to have corners rounded or sharp should be an option of a Line material.

I have now created a script that will draw trapezoids on the points with small angle. The edges of the trapezoids are tangent to the radius of that current point. I am about to post a screenshot.
