Hi,
I would like to create an Ngon within an empty polygon object. I have the outer edges (so the outline of the ngon) and also holes in the same ngon, however stored in my own data structure.
Afai understood I can use BuildNgon to build an Ngon by passing an outer edges list including holes. And that the last edge of each segment should have the PGONEDGE_ENDSEGMENT set. So segment 1 would be the outline, segment 2 would be hole 1, segment 3 = hole 2 etc.
Is that right so far?
Now my problem is in understanding what the "edges" structure really is. I think I don´t understand it yet. When I have an empty polygon object, what edge indices should I fill the array with as there are no edges in the poly object yet? Don´t quite understand how this should work.
I am thankful for information on this.
Thanks!
Best
