Polyline Command

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.
