Hi,

I’ve noticed that the stroke ending is slightly off the Italic angle when the stroke is thick. This must be a bug. It is a weird Italic angle (18.469°) but it worked fine in G3.

You are right. It was rotating instead of slanting. I fixed it.

Can we please have the arbitrary angle for the stroke ending also? 😁
