Here's a quick hack-- didn't check it for bugs.

The real solution would be to add a "-c" flag to [plot] to draw the trace back to element 0:

[plot -c etc.]

And maybe "-f COLOR" to draw the trace back to element 0 and fill the inside.

(Although that word probably be a bigger change.)

Subject: [PD] Data structure array with last element pointing back to first element

Hi,

I've recently started playing around with Pd's data structures, and I need some help. It's relatively straightforward to create polygons and arrays of polygons. Though, I'd like to create a closed polygon, where each vertex is another data structure. I've attached a patch of what I have so far.

I basically just want there to be another line to connect the 4th element of the array back to the first.

Is it possible to use a [drawpolygon] object where each of the corners would be another data structure?

Thanks!

Scott
