_GDIPlus_GraphicsDrawPolygon

Draw a polygon

#include <GDIPlus.au3>
_GDIPlus_GraphicsDrawPolygon ( $hGraphics, $aPoints [, $hPen = 0] )

Parameters

$hGraphics Handle to a Graphics object
$aPoints Array that specify the vertices of the polygon:
    [0][0] - Number of vertices
    [1][0] - Vertice 1 X position
    [1][1] - Vertice 1 Y position
    [2][0] - Vertice 2 X position
    [2][1] - Vertice 2 Y position
    [n][0] - Vertice n X position
    [n][1] - Vertice n Y position
$hPen [optional] Handle to a pen object that is used to draw the polygon. If 0, a solid black pen with a width of 1 will be used.

Return Value

Success: True.
Failure: False and sets the @error flag to non-zero, @extended may contain GPSTATUS error code ($GPIP_ERR* see GPIPlusConstants.au3).

Remarks

If the first and last points are not identical, a line is drawn between them to close the polygon.
