    Remarks

    The lines are drawn from the first point through subsequent points by using the current pen. Windows 95/98/Me: DrawPolyLine cannot draw more than a certain number of points. The limit depends on the line width (that is, the width of the pen selected into the DC) Line width Maximum points allowed line width is 1 16K line width > 1 (that is, wideline) and device supports wideline 16K line width > 1 but device does not support wideline approximately 1360 (that is, approximately 16K/12)

    Any extra points are ignored. To draw a line with more points, divide the data into groups that have less than the maximum number of points and call the function for each group of points. Remember to connect the line segments.
