The 3 controls

Nothing here is baked in. Every value stays live on the object for as long as the file exists, so you can come back and retune it, reorder it against other effects, or take it off and get your original path back exactly as you drew it.

  1. Distance-300 to 300, default 6
  2. JoinsMiter, Round, Bevel
  3. Miter limit1 to 20, default 4
