Description

The AddMultigon() function makes it possible to depict regular polygons in a variety of ways. The number of polygon points (vertices) can be controlled by using the argument numOfVertices, the rotation of the polygon by the argument rotation. A rotation angle greater than zero moves the polygon clockwise; by entering a negative rotation angle the polygon is moved counter-clockwise. The rotation angle is to be entered within the range of ±360 degrees. The argument innerRadiiRel can have up to 2 values, i.e. the radial indent of the inner vertices, and an optional circular offset. Both values have to be entered relative to the outer radius, the radial indent between 0 and 1 (default is 0.5) and the circular offset between -1 and +1 (default is 0). The corner roundings of the inner vertices can be controlled by the argument innerCornerRadiusRel with a value between 0 and 1. The shape of the outer vertex is controlled by using the argument capParams. Three cap types are supported. As an option, a second parameter can be added to fine tune the appearance of the caps.
0...No cap (default).
1...Cut-off. The size of the cut-off can be controlled by entering a second value between [0..1].
2...Round. The rounding can be controlled by entering a second value between [0..1].
3...Peak. The appearance of the peak can be controlled by entering a second value between [0..1].
Spokes can be defined by using the argument spokeThickness. An optional radial spoke offset can be controlled by the argument innerRadiiRel.
