ATTENTION: THIS METHOD WORKS ONLY ON WINDOWS FOR NOW. LIBGDI+ HAS A FAKE IMPLEMENTATION AND WILL NOT DRAW IT.

LSL: '''[[string]] osSetPenCap( [[string]] drawList, string direction, string type )'''<br />
C#: '''[[string]] osSetPenCap( [[string]] drawList, string direction, string type )'''


Appends a [[Drawing_commands#PenCap|PenCap]] drawing command to the string provided in '''drawList''' and returns the result.

This sets the pen's start or/and end cap to either "diamond", "arrow", "round", or default "flat" shape. It can set them in the "end" or "start" of the line, or "both". Possible values are (case insensitive):
<p>Type:<b><br>
"arrow"<br>
"diamond"<br>
"round"<br>
"flat"
</b></p>
<p>
Direction:<br>
<b>
"start"<br>
"end"<br>
"both"<br>
</b></p>

// Example of osSetPenCap

    {
        string CommandList = "";                              // Storage for our drawing commands
        integer i;

        CommandList = osSetPenSize( CommandList, 5 );         // Set the pen width to 5 pixels. With 1 pixel, arrow is very hard to see
        CommandList = osSetPenCap("start", "arrow");          // Sets the beggining of the line with an arrow
        CommandList = osMovePen(drawList,50,100);             // Moves pen to 50,100
        CommandList = osLineTo(drawList, 100,150);            // Draws line from 50,100 to 100,150

        osSetDynamicTextureData( "", "vector", CommandList, "", 0 );
    }
