I agree that for miter-clip, the clip should not be less than that which would produce a bevel. The situation where a clip would cut into the corners of the stroked path (without line joins) was not considered. I think it is highly unlikely that any graphics library would support clipping away the corners of stroked path. (Although we, Inkscape, do exactly that with our "Live Path Effect" implementation as we generate the path ourselves and don't rely on underlying graphics library in this case.) For the arcs line join, the equivalent should be specified although this not as nice as the transition between clipping perpendicular to the circular arc (as specified) does not smoothly transition to a bevel but this should lead to a rather small discontinuity (if animated). The key point is that clipping should not cause a visual jump in the rendering of the line join as the join angle is changed. -- GitHub Notification of comment by Tavmjong Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/issues/745#issuecomment-544656180 using your GitHub account
