Alternate outer tips and inner valleys to draw a star with selective rounded corners.

Try it

Compare the five-tip star with the selectively rounded seven-tip star.

What to learn

• Set points plus outerRadius and innerRadius to define the alternating vertices.
• Round selected tips while preserving sharp valleys with cornerRadii.

Integration boundaries

• A Star requires an integer point count of at least three and outerRadius at least as large as innerRadius.
• cornerRadii follows the generated tip-and-valley traversal order.

This is a Pibbl Canvas example. Its mount owns its runtime resources; call its controller’s dispose method when removing it. The preview starts automatically unless reduced motion is enabled; Stop disposes the mount. Preserve the source’s logical canvas size and aspect ratio. Native HTML is not captured by Canvas filters.

Complete source

Host setup for this source: use a canvas with width 720 and height 420, compile with jsx: "react-jsx" and jsxImportSource: "@pibbl/core", import its default mount, and call const controller = mount(canvas) after attaching the canvas. Call controller.dispose() before removing it.
