End caps for lines and polylines

Mickor85 — Sun, 30 Aug 2026 12:33:37 GMT

We need an option to edit the shape of line and polyline end caps. I believe this is an issue that has already been raised ( wish #12512 if I'm not mistaken )

This is an essential thing and it shouldn't be too difficult to do.

One way of doing it is adding shape selection option to marker menu.

Or it could be done the way AutoCAD does it - by adding thickness setting to polyline itself along with placement options - inside, outside, center.

Operating system used: Windows 11

I am assuming you are talking about the arrowheads at the start and end of lines, arcs, polylines.

In Ac29, a new feature is the ability to specify a different arrowhead type for either end.

If I understand correctly, you would like the ability to set any type of custom 2D geometry (a 2D library part, in essence) for each of the two ends.

If this is what you want, you should head to the Wishlist and make a wish for it. People then can vote so the Graphisoft Product team can have an idea of how much demand there is for such a feature:
