line ends and corners

how do you change the end of a line, or the corner of a polyline, or the corner of the frame of a fill outline to be crisp/90 degrees instead of rounded?

You can't.
AC does not have that option.

I am using 21 and I don't see that option for end caps like in Illustrator, what is new in 21 for dash lines and objects is that there will always be a line in a corner

It should be there in 23 (don't have it installed) and it should apply to PL.
