The method is used to either inflate or deflate a polygon.
For translating/transforming a polygon, use `Transform2D.xform`.
(cherry picked from commit 19b72da35d)
We already removed it from the online docs with #35132.
Currently it can only be "Built-In Types" (Variant types) or "Core"
(everything else), which is of limited use.
We might also want to consider dropping it from `ClassDB` altogether
in Godot 4.0.
- Add some missing descriptions.
- Add links to tutorials for ARVR and AnimationTree.
- Style fixes.
- Engine changes:
* Make `AnimationNodeTransition.input_<number>` properties internal
so that they don't appear in the docs. They still appear in the
inspector based on the actual number of inputs requested.
* Drop unimplemented `CPUParticles.flatness`. It's only used for 3D
particles in `ParticlesMaterial`, and thus only relevant for
`CPUParticles3D`.
- Document a few more properties and methods
- Add more information to many classes
- Fix lots of typos and gramar mistakes
- Use [code] tags for parameters consistently
- Use [b] and [i] tags consistently
- Put "Warning:" and "Note:" on their own line to be more visible,
and make them always bold
- Tweak formatting in code examples to be more readable
- Use double quotes consistently
- Add more links to third-party technologies
Can be used via scripting as `Geometry.triangulate_delaunay_2d(points)`
The interface is the same as in `Triangulate` library, returning indices
into triangulated points.
Clipper 6.4.2 is used internally to perform polypaths clipping, as well
as inflating/deflating polypaths. The following methods were added:
```
Geometry.merge_polygons_2d(poly_a, poly_b) # union
Geometry.clip_polygons_2d(poly_a, poly_b) # difference
Geometry.intersect_polygons_2d(poly_a, poly_b) # intersection
Geometry.exclude_polygons_2d(poly_a, poly_b) # xor
Geometry.clip_polyline_with_polygon_2d(poly_a, poly_b)
Geometry.intersect_polyline_with_polygon_2d(poly_a, poly_b)
Geometry.offset_polygon_2d(polygon, delta) # inflate/deflate
Geometry.offset_polyline_2d(polyline, delta) # returns polygons
// This one helps to implement CSG-like behaviour:
Geometry.transform_points_2d(points, transform)
```
All the methods return an array of polygons/polylines. The resulting
polygons could possibly be holes which could be checked with
`Geometry.is_polygon_clockwise()` which was exposed to scripting as well.
Rename user facing methods and variables as well as the corresponding
C++ methods according to the folloming changes:
* pos -> position
* rot -> rotation
* loc -> location
C++ variables are left as is.
