Polygon clipping

[krtxmrtz]

If the API CombineRgn function is used to find the intersection of 2 polygons, is there a way to retrieve the coordinates of the newly created region?

* bump *

I MUST know the coordinates of the resulting region in order to perform some calculations.

[krtxmrtz]

* yet another bump *

Let me put it another way.

I have:
poly1 with coordinates x1(i), y1(i) where i runs from 1 to N1
poly2 with coordinates x2(j), y2(j) where j runs from 1 to N2

I want find the coordinates x3(k), y3(k) where k runs from 1 to N3 of poly3, which is the intersection -the common region- of poly1 and poly2.

But I don't care that much about a function that plots it, I want a subroutine that returns the coordinates of poly3 given those of poly1 and poly2.

Does that exist at all in VB? Writing my own function is VERY difficult.

I can't understand what you want.

Yes, I suppose I've explained it in a rather confusing fashion. here's the picture.
