So the question is, how should the new property linecap work on
dashed lines? It is possible, that a document sets linecap = 'round'
and dash style = 'rect', which are contradictory. I have found no
rule in the ODF1.2 spec to solve it.

Hi Regina,

nice catch, sounds like a defect in the spec to me - my take is,
dash style is superseded by the svg linecaps.

Microsoft Office has a line property "Endetyp" (German) with values
'Flach', 'Rund', and 'Rechteck' which corresponds to the linecap
property. Microsoft Office applies the property to each dash, but
the caps are not added to the dashes. Rounding is cut of the flat
size of the inner dashes and only added to the outer dashes.

Do I get that right, you say MSO only applies the caps to the very
ends of the line? At least for MSO2007, I see round caps also on all
dash elements.

Cheers,
