Re: Ellipse, trim and gap

I pushed a fix to support cap style for arcs.

The basic story: we rely on the Qt framework to render primitive geometries, such as elliptic arcs, but Qt doesn't natively support elliptic arcs, while support ellipses.

The current solution:

Draw a complete ellipse;
Trim unwanted part;
At each end, draw a line segment of 1 device independent coordinate in length.

Hope future Qt versions will provide support for rendering elliptic arcs.
