Details Details

The following types can be used in JoinForm[type]:

	"Bevel"	truncate the corner
	"Miter"	extend the corner toward a point
	{"Miter",d}	extend by at most d times the line width
	"Round"	cover the corner with a disk
	None	do not join segments

JoinForm works in both 2D and 3D.
In 2D, the default is JoinForm[{"Miter", 3.25}]. In 3D, the default is JoinForm["Round"].
JoinForm[{"Miter", 1/Sin[/2]}] gives sharp corners for any join angle larger than .
JoinForm can be used inside EdgeForm.
