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 Graphic
(Mac OS 10.7.5: yeah, yeah, I know, 'tisn't supported for LC 9: go and
try it on a newer Mac running
Mac OS Rocky Mountain) and no polygon graphic appeared on my stack.
To contextualise this: there is no problem if I select 'regualr polygon
graphic'.

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, change its style to "polygon", then set the points
and adjust them however you like:
put the effective points of grc 1 into tPts
set the style of grc 1 to "polygon"
set the points of grc 1 to tPts
