When drawings with lines of large width are rendered, the drawing may not be printed properly depending on the settings for "45-1. Line Caps" and "45-2. Line Joins".
This function is applied on lines wider than 0.35 mm.
If the line width is 0.35 mm or less, "Round Cap" and "Round Join" are applied to Line Caps and Line Joint.
When "Do not Specify" is not selected, the line attributes specified by the LA command are invalidated. The LA command is valid only when "Do not Specify" is selected in both "45-1. Line Caps" and "45-2. Line Joins".
When "Do not Specify" is selected for each submenu in the line attribute settings, "None" for "45-1. Line Caps" and "Projecting Join" for "45-2. Line Joins" are set as the default for each setting.
The settings specified for this function may be ineffective in some applications.
