What it is
When a default stroke join is set to
mitered, this property specifies when
the join will be converted to beveled
(squared-off ) by default. The default
miter limit of 4 means that when the
length of the point reaches four times the
stroke weight, the join switches from a
miter join to a bevel join. Values: 1–500; a
value of 1 specifies a bevel join.
If true, the art beneath the stroked
object should be overprinted
Width of stroke
If true, the path should be stroked
