Beginners' Questions Nodes not making corner

    I ahve 3 lines which make a triangle, made with bezier. I am trying to make the corners clean.  As it is they do not quite match up. To use nodes I select all three  lines and hit shft/ctr/c. I then hit the icon to convert strokes to paths. I draw a square around the nodes and the end of 2 lines. I end up wiht one yellow triangle node and one two tone (blue/white) triangle node.  I select both and I hit the "make nodes a corner icon" and nothing happens.  If I click on each line I end up with 4 nodes, one yellow and 3 two toned as above.  I select "make a corner" and nothing happens.

    What am I doing wrong?

    I cannot reply to your email so I guess that I just have to repost the same question.  Thanks for the video but it did not show a corner being made.

    Converting "strokes to paths". This is not necessary here, unless you want shapes instead of strokes. But even then, you don't want to use it until the end.
