AddPolygon Method
The AddPolygon method creates a polygon. Returns an AutoPolygon object.
Syntax
object.AddPolygon( vertices, id )
Parameter | Type | Description |
vertices | Variant | optional, see the Remarks below |
id | Variant | optional, polygon name |
Remarks
Use page units in the array. The vertices parameter is an array containing alternating XY page coordinates. This assumes the entire array is used. VB users can use ReDim to set the array size to the used size if necessary. See Coordinate Arrays for more information about creating arrays in Grapher.
Example
This example shows how to dimension the coordinates for a polygon and create a new polygon. The even numbered elements within the Coordinates array represent X values, while the odd numbered elements represent their corresponding Y values.
Dim Polygon As Object
Dim Coordinates(5) As Double
Coordinates(0) = 4: Coordinates(1) = 1
Coordinates(2) = 7: Coordinates(3) = 3
Coordinates(4) = 2: Coordinates(5) = 6
Set Polygon = Shapes.AddPolygon(Coordinates)
