Description

Function PtInPoly returns TRUE if the point specified point lies within, or on, the referenced polygon or polyline object.

FUNCTION PtInPoly(
          pX,pY   :REAL;
          h       :HANDLE) : BOOLEAN;

def vs.PtInPoly(p, h):
    return BOOLEAN

Parameters

p		REAL		X-Y coordinate point.
h		HANDLE		Handle to polygon.

Remarks

( _c_ 2021.12.27): This only works on polygons or segments of poly lines whose vetex type is corner. Any point on poly segments with other vertex type (bezier, arc, radius, cubi) will return fall.

Example

VectorScript

PROCEDURE Example;
VAR
polyHandle :HANDLE;
locusHandle :HANDLE;
x, y :REAL;
BEGIN
CallTool(-204); polyHandle := FSActLayer;
CallTool(-221); locusHandle := FSActLayer;
GetLocPt(locusHandle, x, y);
Message(PtInPoly(x, y, polyHandle));
END;
RUN(Example);
