+| //Polygon in the graphics palette.// | //Polygon graphic example.// |
+==== Overview ====
+The Polygon graphic is a basic shape graphic similar to [[mistudio:design_editor:basic_layout:basic_shapes:box|Box]], but it displays as a multi-sided shape.
+Use Polygon when a display area, fill indicator, or dashboard shape needs a custom polygon appearance instead of a rectangle or circle.
+==== Difference From Box ====
+Polygon shares many of the same display and input behaviors as [[mistudio:design_editor:basic_layout:basic_shapes:box|Box]], including fill behavior, label display, color action, fill direction, high and low values, and data source input behavior.
+The main difference is that Polygon includes shape-specific settings for the number of sides and starting angle.
+==== Polygon-Specific Properties ====
+**Number of Sides** Controls how many sides the polygon has.
+**Starting Angle** Controls the rotation or starting orientation of the polygon shape.
