Hello,
I want to iterate through all edges of an PolygonObject and get their vectors. How can I do that?
I've done this already with Python by using a BaseSelect, but I think, there must be a better way.
Thanks

I found the solution in the SDK documentation:
Example:
The following code browses through all available edges:
Int32 a, b;
Neighbor neighbor;
if (!neighbor.Init(pcnt, vadr, vcnt, nullptr))
return false;
for (i=0; i<polyCount; i++)
{

Actually there's also the AtomArray in our cinema4dsdk examples, which shows this in "living" code.
