We have a customer who frequently deals with polygons that have greater than 255 vertices ( the max allowed by SGI). He gets the data from another software package and uses the IRIS to display the data. He has a method of dealing with these polygons, but it is limited in speed and capabilities. He would be eternally grateful for an algorithm that can break up his large polygons into polygons with less than 255 vertices. Additionally, his large polygons often have holes in them, so the algorithm would have to be able to deal with these. Can anyone out there help this unfortunate individual? :-) (He doesn't have email.) Thanks for any help you may be able to provide. -- Tom Barton SGI - Dallas email: sgi.com!trb vmail: 8047 phone: 214-788-4122
