If x, y, and z are matrices of the same size, fill3 forms a vertex from the corresponding elements of x, y, and z all from the same matrix location, and creates one polygon from the data in each column if x, y, or z is a matrix, fill3 replicates any column vector argument to produce matrices of the required size. Intersection points for lines or polygon edges matlab polyxpoly. The best i can figure right now is to draw a line that splits the nonplanar polygon in half, determines if the line segment lies to the right or left of the splitting line, then continue splitting until i can determine intersection.
