GPOLYGON()
Draw a polygon on screen
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
GPOLYGON(<aVertex>, <lFilled>, <nMode>, <nOutLine>,
<nFillColor>) --> NIL
Arguments
<aVertex> is an array value representing an array of polygon
vertices coordinates.
<lFilled> is a logical value that creates a filled or non-filled
polygon. LLG_FILL or LLG_FRAME are valid constants.
<nMode> is a numeric value representing the video Mode. The
following are valid <nMode> values. They are all # defines in Llibg.ch.
Display Mode Constants
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Constant Description
------------------------------------------------------------------------
LLG_MODE_SET Display in SET mode (ignores any pixels present under the
line displayed). This is the most common display mode.
LLG_MODE_AND Display in AND mode (executes an AND on pixels present
under the line at display time and on the display color).
LLG_MODE_OR Display in OR mode (executes an OR on pixels present
under the line at display time and on the display color).
LLG_MODE_XOR Display in XOR mode (executes an XOR on pixels present
under the line at display time and on the display color).
See note.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: This method allows you to move objects around on the screen
without damaging the background. To retrieve the initial background,
just repeat the call for display in XOR mode. If the display mode
parameter is missing, the last mode specified in a call to a CA-Clipper
graphic function is used.
<nOutLine> is a numeric value representing the outline color.
<nFillColor> is a numeric value representing the fill color.
Returns
GPOLYGON() always returns NIL.
Description
GPOLYGON() can be used to create a polygon. Simply pass an array of
coordinates which make up the polygon.
Examples
. The following array of vertices would draw a triangle:
aVertex := {{1,5},; // First point
{20,45},; // Second point
{65,145} ; // Third point}
Files Library is LLIBG.LIB, the header file is Llibg.ch.
