My StoreDictPolygon attempt

Pertti Paasky

Hi GS!
I'm glad to see the new DICTIONARY parameters.
The polygon operations have been able to operate with those since v23.
My little study of replacing polyline parameters with dict ones succeeded, but there was something with the StoreDictPolygon I can´t fire up. The attached object clips polyline with polygon. However It´s "usedictpolygon" -option gives an error message. The old way works fine.
So if there is an example of filling StoreDictPolygon properly I would be very pleased. I went through the GDL manual and some macros like openingsymbol_m.gsm but couldn´t find any help.
thanks

Ok, I found the solution: the coordinate values must be floating values, not integers as I had.

Sorry @Pertti Paasky , can you share a small example?

because I'm struggling with the dict from a couple of weeks and I can't understand where I'm doing wrong...

 

Many thanks in advance!

Ok, try this.

So Pertti:

Really many thanks because it would be impossible for me to find a way out without your help!!!

 

I have never understood what was the role of the ProfileConvert before!

Thanks again!!
