Function
SMLT limit-value;
Ratio of the length through a join to the width of line, expressed by the following
formula (Default is 10. Minimum value is 1).
miter length
limit-value =
line width
W
The miter limit value set by the SMLT command is the maximum ratio of the miter
length through a join to the width of the lines connected to each other.
The default miter limit value is 10. In smaller miter-limit values, say 3, the miter join
automatically switches to the beveled join. This switching prevents the problem of a
spike extending beyond the intersection of the path because a small angle is used for the
miter-join.
