The GD.Polygon plugin provides an interface to GD.pm's GD::Polygon class.
See GD for a complete description of the GD library and all the methods that can be called via the GD.Polygon plugin. See Template::Plugin::GD::Image for the main interface to the GD functions. See Template::Plugin::GD::Constants for a plugin that allows you access to GD.pm's constants.
