How do I change the end cap to round cap Bob?

Hi Bob and all

clearly going mad, but twas the rounded ends I wanted, however I followed your tutorial

and .......



I drew a circle

converted it to an editable shape

Selected the shape editor

and clicked and shift clicked on two ajoining nodes so that each node was surrounded by a blue square.

I selected break at points

tried pressing delete points just got a doughnut

pressed the delete key- still got a doughnut

How do I select and remove the arc between the two nodes?

thanks

Ian

Ian,

You're fine up to the shape editor tool .....

With the shape editor tool, marquee select two nodes, so they are both red (or blue -did you change that in Xareg)
Click "Break at points"
After that change to the selector tool.
Click off the shape then select and drag away the portion that you cut out (then delete it if you want).
You are left with a "C"
Change the line width to whatever thickness you want.
The open the line gallery
Change "Butt Cap" to "Round Cap"

Thanks a lot, it was the click away that I missed.

cheers

Ian

Glad you got it sorted, Ian. Thanks for stepping in Keith.
