TIECanvas.Polyline

Declaration

procedure Polyline(Points: array of TPoint); overload;
procedure Polyline(Points: array of TPoint; PointCount: Integer); overload;

Description

Draw a series of joined lines specified by multiple points.

Note:
◼For a double version use, PolylineD
◼For a polygon (closed polyline), use Polygon
◼For advanced polygon drawing, use AdvancedDrawPolyline

GDI+ Method: GdipDrawLinesI
