PEP_structPOLYDATA

Purpose

There is a newer preferred property, we recommend PEP_structTRIANGLEDATA which supports ComputeShader = True.  

This property is used to add polygon data to a 3D object when PolyMode is set to PEPM_POLYGONDATA.  To add polygons to any PolyMode chart, use PEP_structGRAPHANNOTPOLYDATA. 

The PEP_structPOLYDATA property uses th PolygonData structure as follows

Comments

AddSkirts (somewhat obsolete Direct2D only) should be set to TRUE if the polygon data forms an enclosed surface and you want to produce a surface or shaded surface image. When passing polygon data, the polygon vertices must be ordered in a counter-clockwise order as viewed from outside of the object. This is only necessary for hidden line removal and shading purposes. If you are only producing a wireframe image, the ordering of vertices is not critical.

Use PEvset to pass polygon data into object.

Within the demo, see example 406, 415.

Refer to Chapter 7 and the example code on more information on using this property.
