For |
| 2082 |
|
example, a wall with a window in it might look as shown in Figure 1. |
| 2083 |
|
In many systems, the wall itself would be represented with the first |
| 2084 |
|
list of vertices, (v1,v2,v3,v4) and the hole associated with that |
| 2085 |
< |
wall as a second set of vertices (v5,v6,v7,v8). In MGF, we must |

wall as a second set of vertices (v5,v6,v7,v8). |
| 2086 |

Using the face entity, we must |
| 2087 |
|
give the whole thing as a single polygon, connecting the vertices so |
| 2088 |
|
as to create a "seam," as shown in Figure 2. |

It is very important that the order of the hole be opposite to the |

order of the outer perimeter, otherwise the polygon will be |

DESCRIPTION |
| 2158 |
+ |
.LP |
| 2159 |
+ |
Create a polygonal face with optional holes made of the current material. |
| 2160 |
+ |
The first contour is the outer perimeter, with vertices given in |
| 2161 |
+ |
counter-clockwise order as seen from the front side (the same as the |
| 2162 |
+ |
.UL f |
| 2163 |
+ |
entity). |
| 2164 |
+ |
A hole is indicated by a hyphen ('-') followed by the hole's |
| 2165 |
+ |
vertices, given in clockwise order as seen from the front side. |
| 2166 |
+ |
Multiple hole contours are separated by additional hyphens. |
| 2167 |
+ |
There must be at least three vertices for each contour, and the |
| 2168 |
+ |
last vertex is implicitly connected to the first. |
| 2169 |
+ |
If any vertex is undefined, an error will result. |
| 2170 |
+ |
.LP |
| 2171 |
+ |
If any vertices have associated surface normals, they will be used |
| 2172 |
+ |
instead of the average plane normal, though it is safest to specify |
| 2173 |
+ |
either all normals or no normals, and to stick with triangles |
| 2174 |
+ |
when normals are used. |
| 2175 |
+ |
Also, specified normals should point in the general direction of the |
| 2176 |
+ |
surface for best results. |
