I would say this is something unexpected, but the strange thing is that I can no longer reproduce my result displayed in post #48.

SHORT_ARC = 10 # pixels
to
SHORT_ARC = 5 # pixels

I changed that back and the spike went.  However that may just be a one off for your example, I have no idea what the wider implications of such a change are.  Anyway that's a difficult case

I didn't download the updated version from Ottia Tuota, I simply manually edited the code as instructed in post #44.

So I couldn't tell you what the SHORT_ARC changes from 10 to 5 in the new code might produce.

How did you do that, the only place I know for line style is when stroking a path with Stroke line. Is that what you mean?

Overall the plugin is working really well, thank you again Ottia Tuota.

Yes, right there. When I made the reported change the spike was gone.

But now, trying to reproduce the previous problem, I redid the previous settings and tried even with others, but I still get the result without any problems.


On the bright side, the problem disappeared like magic.
