I am using clipper for performing a bunch of operations on polygons which represent the outlines of objects in my program. The thing is, I now want to clip a grid of line se
Using Clipper ver 6 ...
using ClipperLib;
using Path = List<IntPoint>;
using Paths = List<List<IntPoint>>;
static Polygon IntsToPolygon(Int64[] ints)

int len1 = ints.Length / 2;
Polygon result = new Polygon(len1);
for (int i = 0; i < len1; i++)
result.Add(new IntPoint(ints[i * 2], ints[i * 2 + 1]));
return result;
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Paths clip = new Paths(); //clipping polygon(s)
//make a polygon in the shape of a pentagram
//with center (200,200) and radius 100 ...

141, 281, 164, 212, 105, 169, 178, 169, 200, 100}
};
clip.Add(IntsToPolygon(ints1[0]));

int gridWidth = 5;
int loopCnt = 200 / gridWidth;
//now make grid lines and add them to subj ready for clipping ...
//add horizontal grid lines ...
for (int i = 0; i <= loopCnt; i++)
