Round    Smooths corners, so the joint is rounded instead of pointed or flat. Bevel    Squares off path segment corners, so that the joint appears flat rather than rounded or pointed. End caps Canvas has three types of end caps. For preset pen strokes, Canvas indicates the type of end cap in the scroll list on the Pen tab. Flat    The end of the stroke is flush and square with the end of an open path or dash. By default, end caps use this setting. Round    A semi-circular cap extends half the pen width beyond the endpoint of an open path or dash. Square    The stroke tip is square, similar to the Flat option, but extends half the line width beyond the endpoint, like the Round option. Creating custom arrowheads You can create starting, ending, or double-sided arrowheads using the Arrow manager. You can create double-sided arrowheads that are identical or entirely different. Canvas has several preset arrowhead styles that you can use and edit, or you can use any vector, paint, or text object as an arrowhead. Arrow Manager 1 Create a vector, text, or paint object to use as an arrowhead. You can also edit a preset arrowhead or an arrowhead style of an existing object by selecting the preset or object.
