Hi,

Is there, or will there be, the ability to draw polygons with more than 4
sides without subdividing them into 3- or 4-sided polygons?  

Several times I've searched the documentation to have my question answered.
 The question seems to have been asked here once before in July, but I
didn't see an answer to it.

Maybe I missed something, but it seems to me that polys of more than 4
sides are not supported by the Java3D API.  Is this correct?  There's no
specific wording that one can not do polys of more than 4 sides, which left
a few of us wondering if that might change to the spec in the future.  One
could derive one's own class to handle these (from IndexedGeometryArray,
say, and call it IndexedPolygonArray), but I hoped that maybe someone out
there could comment on this and set us straight once and for all.

Thanks in advance,

-david
