Making the end of a line round?

Hello,

I wanted to ask you, how to make a round ending of a thick line. Instead of a rectangle ending, a round ending (a half circle).

Thank you, greetings Zerdo

There's no way to change the style of line endings in Moho, but you could draw a small circle lined up with the end of the line to fake the effect.

If one created a brush that was a round black ball wouldn´t that create a rounded end?

I made a round black circle, stuck it in the brush library of Moho then drew with it (see above).
The ends of the lines are round.
Is this what you wanted?

Make sure that Preview mode is turned on for the display quality in Moho so you can see the final drawing style.

Yes, that's right - a round brush can do the trick nicely.

LM, do you ever USE your own program?

It's not the first time a user pointed out an option you didn't think of, that's what you get if you leave people with choices...

I think LM is shocked by all the uses and abuses people have found for moho....

Thanks a lot, Toontoonz and Lost Marble for the ideas and hints. But I think, that this method needs sometimes more time. Then a button like Line Width could help. Could this be a feature in the next versions? Just to "make a line round at the ending" button. I think, this feature could help a lot at different things.

Sorry for my bad English
