- **LINE_JOINT_BEVEL** = **1** --- The line's joints will be bevelled/chamfered.

- **LINE_JOINT_ROUND** = **2** --- The line's joints will be rounded.

----

.. _enum_Line2D_LineCapMode:

.. _class_Line2D_constant_LINE_CAP_NONE:

.. _class_Line2D_constant_LINE_CAP_BOX:

.. _class_Line2D_constant_LINE_CAP_ROUND:

enum **LineCapMode**:

- **LINE_CAP_NONE** = **0** --- Don't have a line cap.

- **LINE_CAP_ROUND** = **2** --- Draws the line cap as a circle.

----

.. _class_Line2D_constant_LINE_TEXTURE_NONE:

.. _class_Line2D_constant_LINE_TEXTURE_TILE:

.. _class_Line2D_constant_LINE_TEXTURE_STRETCH:

enum **LineTextureMode**:

- **LINE_TEXTURE_NONE** = **0** --- Takes the left pixels of the texture and renders it over the whole line.

- **LINE_TEXTURE_TILE** = **1** --- Tiles the texture over the line. The texture need to be imported with Repeat Enabled for it to work properly.

- **LINE_TEXTURE_STRETCH** = **2** --- Stretches the texture across the line. Import the texture with Repeat Disabled for best results.
