Trace
=====
.. module:: ezdxf.entities
:noindex:
TRACE entity (`DXF Reference`_) is solid filled triangle or quadrilateral.
Access vertices by name (:code:`entity.dxf.vtx0 = (1.7, 2.3)`) or by
index (:code:`entity[0] = (1.7, 2.3)`). If only 3 vertices are provided the
last (3rd) vertex will be repeated in the DXF file.
The TRACE entity stores the vertices in an unusual way, the last two vertices
are reversed. The coordinates [(0, 0), (1, 0), (1, 1), (0, 1)] do not create
a square as you would expect:
.. image:: gfx/solid0.png
:align: center
Reverse the last two vertices to get the `expected` square:
[(0, 0), (1, 0), (0, 1), (1, 1)]
.. image:: gfx/solid1.png
:align: center
.. note::
The :meth:`Trace.vertices` and :meth:`Trace.wcs_vertices` methods return the
vertices in the `expected` (reversed) order.
