path plug-in object

[Dieter @ DWorks]

How do you use the path plug-in object? let's say I want to draw a double line on the path. How do you do this? because this plugin object has no parameters.

has several examples for you to lot at

Main section of a path obj script that draws a poly:

BEGIN

IF GetCustomObjectInfo(objectName,objectHand,recordHand,wallHand) THEN

BEGIN

pathHnd :=GetCustomObjectPath(objectHand);

num_vert :=GetVertNum(pathHnd);

OpenPoly;

BeginPoly;

FOR i := 1 TO num_vert DO

BEGIN

GetPolyPt(pathHnd,i,x,y);

AddPoint(x,y);

END;

EndPoly;

END;

END;

I managed to do that (draw a double poly on a pathPIO) with the magic OffsetPoly command (hidden in the VWPluginLibraryRoutines.p). It also works in a different way with OffsetHandle
