Polygon Button

The polygon button is a visible client component and behaves like the button switch.

 

In order to draw the polygon surface, the edit mode must be started in the component by right-clicking. Then the button can be drawn. The corners can be moved via the displayed point (cursor becomes a + ). For an additional corner, a left-click is performed on the corresponding position on the line. For deleting, a right-click on the node is executed. For termination and deletion, the right-click menu of the component is to be called.
