- Polyline( <List of Points> )
- Creates an open polygonal chain (i.e. a connected series of segments) having the initial vertex in the first point of the list, and the final vertex in the last point of the list.
- Note: The polygonal chain length is displayed in the
Algebra View.
- Polyline( <Point>, ..., <Point> )
- Creates an open polygonal chain (i.e. a connected series of segments) having the initial vertex in the first entered point, and the final vertex in the last entered point.
- Notes:
- The polygonal chain length is displayed in the Algebra View.
- It is also possible to create a discontinuous polygonal:
- Example:
Polyline[ (1, 3), (4, 3), (?,?), (6, 2), (4, -2), (2, -2)]yields the value 9.47 in Algebra View, and the corresponding polygonal in 
Graphics View.
- The polygonal chain length is displayed in the
Note: See also Polygon command.
