    py5.stroke_cap(py5.SQUARE)
    py5.line(20, 50, 80, 50)
    py5.stroke_cap(py5.PROJECT)
    py5.line(20, 70, 80, 70)

Description#

Sets the style for rendering line endings. These ends are either squared, extended, or rounded, each of which specified with the corresponding parameters: SQUARE, PROJECT, and ROUND. The default cap is ROUND.

To make point() appear square, use stroke_cap(PROJECT). Using stroke_cap(SQUARE) (no cap) causes points to become invisible.

Underlying Processing method: strokeCap
