In WPF, the miter limit is used to clamp the miter length. The miter limit represents a ratio of the miter length to half of the line’s thickness. In the right diagram, the dashed horizontal lines are each one half line thickness away from each other.

You can apply strokes, or line settings, to paths, shapes, text frames, and text outlines. The Stroke panel provides control over the weight and appearance of the stroke, including how segments join, start and end shapes, and options for corners.

Specifies the new miter limit for the device context. Remarks. Sets the limit for the length of miter joins for the device context. The miter length is defined as the distance from the intersection of the line walls on the inside of the join to the intersection of the line walls on the outside of the join.

Before we talk about limits, we need to understand the miter length. Miter lengths are measured differently between Illustrator and WPF. In Illustrator, the miter length is measured from the inside of the join to its outside point. In WPF, it’s measured from the center of the join to its outside point. This effectively means that a miter length in WPF is half of what it would be in Illustrator. Miter limits are represented by ratios. In Illustrator, the default miter limit is 4, and the limit specifies a threshold.

The miter length is the diagonal length of the miter, which is the distance between the inside corner and the outside corner of the intersection. The smaller the angle formed by two line segments, the longer the miter length and the sharper the angle of intersection.

Nonzero if the function is successful; otherwise 0. Specifies the new miter limit for the device context. Sets the limit for the length of miter joins for the device context. The miter length is defined as the distance from the intersection of the line walls on the inside of the join to the intersection of the line walls on the outside of the join. The miter limit is the maximum allowed ratio of the miter length to the line width. The default miter limit is 10.0.

You can also select stroke settings in the Control panel when a path or frame is selected. If you frequently use the same stroke settings, you can save the settings in an object style, and quickly apply the same settings to any object. For more information, see Object styles.

Type a value (between 1 and 500) and press Enter or Return. The Miter Limit does not apply to a round join. You can include miter limit and stroke alignment settings in a paragraph or character style. Click the Character Color section, and then click the stroke icon to make the options available.
