No headers The Polygon command creates polygon shapes. Polygons can have up to 128 sides.
Fusion has three types of polygons: inscribed, circumscribed, and edge. You create inscribed and circumscribed polygons based on a theoretical circle. You create edge polygons by specifying the endpoints of an edge and the location of the center.

| The vertex defines an Inscribed polygon. | The midpoint of the edge defines a Circumscribed Polygon. |
Create an Inscribed polygon
- Place a point to define the center. A temporary circle displays to preview the polygon.
- Place a second point to define the location of a vertex.

Create a Circumscribed polygon
- Place a point to define the center. A temporary circle displays to preview the polygon.
- Place a second point to define the location of the midpoint of an edge.

Create an Edge polygon
- Place a point to define the location of an endpoint of an edge.
- Place a second point to define the length and orientation of the edge.
- Move the cursor to either side of the line and click to set the location of the center.

NOTE: Set the number of sides before placing the points to improve the preview.
