I believe I can see the idea there, but I can't quite tell what that phrase means about terminating. The "contained within" also seems inaccurate, because e.g. lineWidth=100;moveTo(0,0);lineTo(1,0);lineTo(1,1) would result in a convex hull that doesn't contain either arc, though I think it'd be alright if said "does not intersect" instead. A possible alternative that seems simpler and (I think) correct (except in the special parallel case): The rounding arc should be chosen so that if it was closed, it would not contain the join point. -- Philip Taylor excors at gmail.com
