Polygon Properties
Right click on the Polygon Tool to open the Polygon Options window.
The Option window only provides features that are available in the Property
Bar, but there is a preview of the resulting polygon or star, which
could save time. Also, setting properties in the Option box creates
a default style, which can save time if you have many polygons or stars
to create.
