Finding and Creating Polygons

You can use the following methods to create and edit 2D polygons:

Notes

  • Polygons belong to the tool being used to create them, but are associated with a window. For example, if you are using 2D Polygon Finder to create polygons in window 1, but quit 2D Polygon Finder without explicitly saving the polygons as a disk file, they are lost. However, if a polygon set is active (although perhaps not yet saved), other tools may access them.

  • Another use for a set of polygons is in the creation of masks (see Cut Mask).
