Rectangles with notches in the corners

Postby TSPCO » Wed Oct 28, 2015 11:56 am

i just did a few battery level icons for fun, I noticed that 2 or 3 or the corners had "notches" in them and were not "nice and square". I fiddled with the edit path and scaled them to get the notches to go away, is this a normal condition? or is there something I don't know about to make then nice and neat?

Hi TSPCO,

could you please upload the svg file so we can take a look?
(I suspect the path is not closed in that corner, or there's another kind of 'dent' in it)

Or could have 2 identical, or almost identical rectangles on top of each other, but slightly misaligned. SVG file will allow us to investigate ;)
