to an X. The node will be deleted.
In the same way, delete the other node to change the shape to a triangle.
Note (1) When using Edit Node from the Edit Menu, nodes can be dragged to
change their positions. It is also possible to add nodes by clicking on the
outline while holding down the Ctrl Key.

polygon.

lect Sector as the shape in the Property Setting Dialog Box for the Multi-
