A cap for a container has three distinct positions, including a closed position, an intermediate spray position and a fully open pour position. The cap provides a fluid tight seal when in the closed position and provides a fluid tight seal from pouring when in the spray position. The cap includes a shell defining a fluid passage to the container and a tip with pouring and spraying apertures axially movably secured to the shell. The tip is pulled up to select a dispensing position, which causes a stem disposed in the shell to engage or disengage with an aperture in the tip, depending on the selected dispensing option.

A multi-position self-guiding cap for attachment to a container. A tip of a cap assembly is mounted over a post section of a shell such that a guiding rib of the tip engages with a guiding channel and an annular groove of the shell. The annular channel allows circumferential movement of the tip relative to the shell. The guiding channel is preferably of a U-shape having a trunk branch and two side branches. The guiding channel defines the different positions of the cap. In moving between the respective positions, the user merely moves the tip in one direction to change states.
