I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I am trying to give my image a black outline. When I duplicate the original, and increase my stroke, I lose the point at the top right hand side. I realize the middle point will be covered, but it seems to have the same issue. Can someone please "point" me in the right direction?
On the Fill & Stroke panel, click on the 'Stroke Style' tab. Look for the row of icons labelled 'Join'. Make sure you've selected the icon on the right with the sharp corner. Next to this icon is a box with a numerical value (probably set to 4.0). Increase the value in this box (just click the plus sign a few times) and your corner should change to a point.
EDIT: forgot to say... in case it's not clear, you need to select the corner node first before doing the above!
