Polygon
extends Path
The Polygon class represents a polygon mark that is used in visualizations such as the radar chart. You cannot create a Polygon object directly, instead, you need to use the densify operation to transform a Circle to a Polygon. Here is an explanation of the densify operation.
Properties#
| property | explanation | type | default value |
|---|
| radius | the radius of the Circle from which this Polygon is created | Number | |
| x | the x coordinate of the center of the Circle from which this Polygon is created | Number | |
| y | the y coordinate of the center of the Circle from which this Polygon is created | Number | |
