interesting conversation.
Thanks all.

I should have better used the wording
"graphic of type" than "graphic of style"
because we can
set the style of grc 1 to "polygon"
for example (the function again, just for the completeness here):
on mouseUp
if there is no grc "poly" then create grc "poly"
set style of grc "poly" to

That's not true if graphics are involved. Just follow the rules.
You cannot _set_ the points of a graphic of type "regular".
You can _get_ the points since LC 7 (thanks to Mark Wieder).
Just the same with a graphic of type "Oval" or "Rectangle" o
Aha: the IDE just plonks a pointless polygon graphic in your card, so it
is invisible.
Setting points does no good at all.

Oddly enough, that may have uncovered a bug in LC 9 dp3 . . .
I thought I would set the points of a polygon graphic to the points of the
regular polygon graphic that I had exported into a scrolling list field.
But when I selected 'Polygon Graphic' from the Menu/Object/New
Control/Polygon Graphi
Why not simply computing the points by yourself?
Excerpt from the the main script of
Raspi stack #2: RegularPolygons3

-- N is the number of vertices
-- x0,y0 is the center of the polygon
-- r is the radius of the polygon
-- b is the angle
Indeed.

To make an irregular polygon use the polygon style. If you need it to
have regular points you can

To make an irregular polygon use the polygon style. If you need it to
have regular points you can first create a regular polygon, get its
effective points, chang
That's true; BUT one cannot deform a regular polygon by doing a

Hi All,
As I’ve looked through the list archives,
Sounds like you want the effective points property (of grc “abc”)?

Hi All,
As I’ve looked through the list archives, I know the answer to my quetion was
‘no' back in 2013… just checking to see if I’ve missed something.
Is there a way to get the points (vertices) of a a regular polygon?
I want to set the the number of sides of the regular polygon (which is easi
